Men, on average, has a larger proportion of muscle mass to our body weight.

And proteins are that basic building blocks of our muscles, so the more muscles you have and the more you use them, the more protein you need to eat.

But the big thing here is that people who stick to a typical North American / European diet will already be eating more protein than their bodies can process, so unless you're already on a protein restricted diet, or work out really, really hard(like several sessions daily) you won't get any benefit from eating more. It'll only be an extra load on your body to remove the excess.

The key here is the amount of muscle mass. A skinny guy (who's OK with being skinny) would need less protein than a heavily muscled woman.
