I think the problem really is in your perception of the role. You're viewing it as "just an admin", I can tell you that I'm not "just an admin".  The team I work with knows that I'm my boss's right-hand, I'm almost an extension of him. I represent him. I'm authorized to speak on his behalf and act on behalf. That's a big job and is nothing to look down on.  If your mostly male corporate world is looking down on you in that role it's because you're letting them.
