Obviously it's more complicated than only this one thing, but the most compelling theory I've heard about it basically goes: if you want to be a prominent woman in the maga movement you have to prove that you accept that you are inferior and not threatening to the men, by playing up this extreme and debasing kind of hyper femininity. In Bed with the Right has a great episode about this and some related ideas.
