It's the whole "woman knowing her place" thing. Docetboy said that a woman in pants is "try[ing] to look like a man." What do we say when a woman's in charge of a family? We say that she "wears the pants," i.e. that she's assuming a male role: being strong, assertive, making money, supporting others, and setting the rules. If a man lets his wife "wear the pants," he's seen as being less of a man. He's "whipped." By keeping women in skirts, we keep them in traditional roles.
So to follow that argument, a professional woman is one who wears a skirt, symbolic of knowing her place. Where is her place? Subordinate to men, of course.
