Men were raised to be hunters and to compete for leadership in their caves, clans, tribes, etc. Women planted and gathered, and took care of the children and the men.

Look at body type & size - men are more muscular, larger and generally stronger than women. The biggie here though is hormones. Testosterone is definitely linked with aggression. Men are the "leaders of the pack". Look at a pack of dogs or a group of lions - there is always a lead male that has to be aggressive to gain that status. Good question.
