It's a 1-2 combo of:
1) Feminist social justice. (Girl saving another girl, we don't need guys! Wait, that still shows weakness, girl saving a boy then!)
2) The Lara Croft effect. (aka, "if I'm gonna stare at character's ass for 30 hours, I'd rather it be a chick").
There's also extra folks not actually in the market for Zelda games (never played them or don't play them any longer) chiming in because hey, why not.
