Do men referee women's soccer games or do women mostly referee women's soccer games?
There are a lot more men refereeing women's soccer games than women because there are a lot more male referees. It's nice to get women involved and officiating at women's games. At men's games, too. But the number of male officials far outnumbers the number of female ones, and that's the difference. Officials are assigned games based on the skill level of the players and the skill (and experience) of the official. (As to skill, a 12-year old official is probably not going to be officiating at a college game, though there are some 12-year old officials who are better referees than some adults.) Those who assign referees, the Directors of Officials at tournaments or in school leagues, want skilled officials to work the games, and gender is not a qualifier.

How many officials control a game of soccer?
There are usually four officials controlling a soccer match: one Referee, two Assistant Referees, and a Fourth Official. In non-professional games, the Fourth Official is usually not present. In some youth games (U10 and below in the US), the offside law is not applied, and so the Assistant Referees are also not used. To confound things more, there is a FIFA sanctioned experiment in the use of two Additional Assistant Referees stationed near the goals (one on each side). There may also be Reserve Assistant Referees who take no part in the match unless an Assistant Referee is unable to continue.

Why are referees called referees?
Originally, soccer was played under the supervision of team captains, and the captains would have to agree on any points related to the game, such as when a goal is scored, a foul is committed, and when time has expired. Sometimes, however, the captains could not agree. A neutral person would be present at competitive games in order to resolve disputes that the captains could not resolve themselves.Thus, the captains would refer to this neutral party, making him the referee (much the same way that a person who is employed is an employee). In this early stage of soccer history, the referee had no power or authority except when referred to by the captains, in which case the referee's decision would be final on that point only.While other sports employed umpires to decide on all points of the games, the soccer referee was a passive arbiter. As soccer evolved and became more competitive, the need was seen to have an umpire on the field to decide on all points, as other sports did, and so the referee moved from the sideline to the field of play, first with a handkerchief, later with a whistle, and most recently with penalty cards and assistants with flags.This evolution of the referee followed with other sports as well, though some sports (such as Cricket and Baseball) retain the umpire nomenclature, and some (such as volleyball) use both a referee and an umpire.
