obviously this dont apply to all women. but in general men are naturally born stronger. which is unfair cz we got all these rapists, women beaters an stuff, and in many cases the women is unable to defend her self. Why are men stronger?

He's obviously talking about physical strength, quit getting offended by nothing. It has to do with evolution. Men are physically stronger because they were the providers doing hunting and such, women took had and took care of the young. It is also why men have more hair, to put up with harsher conditions.
Just so you know women do rape men, probably rare but there is little research on it so we don't know for sure. Women also beat men which is actually very common, they make up for their lack of physical strength with weapons and knowledge that the man won't hit back do to moral beliefs or knowing he will go to jail.

This is true of a lot of species besides ours.
This question DOES belong in the biology category.
I know I've read what's behind species where one sex is bigger and stronger than the other, and why it's males (when it's the males), and why it's females (when it's he females).
This is a question for evolutionary theory.
I looked a bit on a site I use for that, but didn't easily find this particular issue.
Anyway, it's not as though all men are rapists or batterers.
That's a psychological thing: most criminally violent men (and women), were abused or grew up in violent homes, or in no homes.

Well, most men are not rapists or wife beaters. But as a group, men tend to be larger overall and have greater muscle mass, especially in the upper body. That's how our species has evolved. Since only females can bear children, males are more expendable and got stuck with the duty of having to hunt, fight off predators and stuff like that.
Sure there are exceptions- some female athletes are stronger than 90% of men, and the fact is strength is something that can be developed through diet & exercise. But statistically speaking, it's easier for men to build muscle due to testosterone- they have a genetic advantage.
Life isn't fair- in nature, small fish get eaten by bigger fish and deer get eaten by wolves. The female preying mantis kills the male after mating, Humans are unique in that we've created societies where there's some escape from that.
Good & bad people come in all shapes, sizes & colors. You don't get more strength, good looks, money, health or anything else for being a nice person. That's why you have to look at people as individuals, not just members of a group. Judge by their actions- not their race, not their religion, not their wealth, and not their sex.

Bi-ol-o-gy.

Testosterone assists muscle development, strength, and endurance.

"Men and Domestic Violence"
It's hosted on the Irish government's Department of Health and Children servers.
It's entirely about male victims of domestic violence.
It does go both ways.

It's because of the hormone called testosterone, it's what makes men men, IE larger muscle mass, no boobs and aggressive.

Maybe interesting to know that the ratio of woman abusing men in domestic situations is a lot more common that you think.
Also, I doubt i would win an arm wrestle against Serena Williams!

Depend on from what side you look,
Women are stronger than men in many things.
Women can bring kids but men can't.

It's because men are more evolved physically and women are more evolved psychically. I think it's because of the days way back. Like in the stone ages.
