Men don't like being told

I'm quite annoyed with a guy at work. This is his first job from college so doesn't know much in the field we work in. I've been showing him how to do the work I've been doing and it's being passed over to him with me overseeing for a while until he has the hang of it.
He is suppose to send me things so I can review and say if it's ok to send out to the client. However he has ignored me emails and not sent to me for review and done it himself. On a few other clients I had quite big points which i told him about and I feel he doesn't like to be told.
This isn't the first time this has happened to me. I've shown another new guy how to do processes and he was suppose to come to me for questions but he point blank refused to.
One of my managers is holding me back and I feel he doesn't want me to progress even though I'm trying me hardest to. Although another manager has had words with him to say to give me better work to help me move up.
Is it just me or do men hate the fact that us women are more capable sometimes and feel they don't listen as it damages their egos.

Although I know that ignoring instructions is not restricted to men, I do feel like some men feel that any instruction from a woman is nagging and can be ignored.

If the workplace is mixed they tend to realise they can’t get away with that shit at work pretty quickly. But in male dominated workplaces maybe they don’t get the chance.
