We see Y chromatin in Turner's patients and it is thought that the errors that you see in paternal X indicate the dysfunctional pairing of Y with maternal X is what leads to X0 (quote at end).
You could still make a case that whatever the underlying reasons are (perhaps genetic), it still "belongs" to the sex that has "the [potential] to produce large reproductive cell" and not the small reproductive cell.
We suggest that the preponderance of paternal errors in Turner syndrome may result from the absence of pairing along the greater part of the XY bivalent during paternal mei I, which may make the sex chromosomes particularly susceptible to both structural and non-disjunctional errors during male gametogenesis.
