Males have an obvious advantage

Although females have a lot of advantages, it's easy to see why males win out. They not only have the physical characteristics to survive on their own, most of the skills females excel in are those which are taught through practice.

First, males are more dominant physically, they possess the tools and athleticism needed to survive in the 'wild' which females usually do not possess. This is clear by watching any sort of womens sports. The most dominant physical females usually have the amount of physical strength and athleticism as the average male. This is not to say there are no females who are physically dominant, but on average they are not.

Second, most of the aspects females excel in are those that are taught. Realms that women are seen to excel at (academics, cooking [i know that's stereotyping but it is true that in general women cook better than men], the arts) are those which can be taught to anyone.

I will concede that women have the ability to carry a child, which a male can not do. However that point is irrelevant because a female can not create a child on her own. Therefore, overall, males have more of an advantage due to their natural traits, which women can not claim.
