sexual selection

i've wondered this:
men tend to be taller and larger than women, in general, by about 10% - this comes from millions of years of sexual selection - that being that women would choose a larger man to procreate with because that larger man could protect her and her offspring more effectively from some dangers and therefore pass on their genes more often ...

I've wondered if, in general, men's brains a wired in a way that make them more witty and quick - which may also be favored by sexual selection

I know there are witty women and large women, but I'm saying just in general ...

I wonder if this idea has any merit? maybe, maybe not - but I'm am curious...
