An aerodynamist could probably explain this better but I've read that most shoulder wing aircraft have anheadral because when the aircraft banks in a turn, the air under the wing (the wing that's on the lower side) gets trapped between the wing and the fuselage therefore creating more lift, so the wing is drooped down more so that it will point more to the ground when the aircraft is banked and so not create lift.  That's the gist of it anyway.
