Why do females have recombination


Problem:

"Males do not show meiotic recombination, facilitating genetic studies."
For a while I have known that this phenomenon occurs, this quote comes from the Wikipedia page on Drosophila melanogaster, and I frequently use this feature of Drosophila in constructing hemiclones for my own research in quantitative genetics.

Required:

Question 1: Why doesn't recombination happen?

Question 2: Why would this feature evolve?

Question 3: Why is the absence of recombination sex-limited to males, why do females have recombination?

Explain all the answers in detail.
