If a girl is called butch for being like a guy
And a guy is called a pussy/pansy for being like a girl
Why is it that both of these insults more derogatory to a woman than it is for a man?!

says who?
What exactly are you questioning?
Because historical patriarchy/misogyny/life being generally easier for men? The general inferiority-of-women thing history's got going on, y'know.
cloudier's probably questioning either the person saying it (and that hypothetical person is a misogynistic ass (not that most of our insults in English aren't sexually problematic)) or your perception that they're misogynistic (which would, frankly, be very out of character).
