Because unfortunately darling we live in patriarchal society that promotes male authority and promotes the idea that men should and can behave in whatever way they see fit. The way are society is formed is truly flawed and it depicts women as subjects; people who are meant to do as there told. While this answer may seem harsh it is sadly the reality that many women live in on a day to day basis. If you know someone are you yourself are being abused by someone, mentally or physically, I urge you to seek help, no one should live their life in fear. You can find more information at Joyful Heart Foundation, they are a great organization that can help and educate you more about domestic violence.

Because most males think that children and especially women are weaker than them.

Some men do tend to abuse females and children, just because they like hurting people and think that women are weaker

Women and men should be observed as equal and not lower than eachother.

They probably got beaten by bullies or a family member when they were kids or something so now they're trying to prove a point.
