men produce roughly 10x the amount of testosterone that women do. this is exactly why men have so much more muscle mass then women do. this difference in muscle mass is why men have faster metabolisms and can lose weight faster.
the primary difference between a man and a woman is in the levels of sex hormones produced, those being testosterone and estrogen.

Genetics probably.
The only other thing I can think of, is that men tend to focus on weight lifting more than girls, and weight lifting can increase metabolism.
