Just to nitpick, that's not even remotely close to why a population might trend towards being slightly female heavy. It's actually a very well understood phenomena, so well understood - that there's a successful formula for it..lol.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

None of which seem very compelling.

But this happens in observed chimps and baboons too. Once the alpha male claim his territory and have gotten rid of the competition, he also goes into punish mode of any female who does not fall in line with his rule. That is usually the only reason, if not then, most of the time females are hurt.

While I'm at it. This is more reason for the theist to except evolution. Their own behavior toward their fellow men is more then enough proof that we are just another species of animal amongst the rest inhabitant this planet and not from a perfect creation.

Sure there are a couple more subtle reasons but, the simpler , most basic ones are enough.

Chimps try to hide it but they have their own barbaric customs, too.

That explains all the shit flinging.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

I think we should all just get along with each other. Sadly seems evolution of the mind is going slow. Maybe Bacon is the only thing worth a damn.
