But human's didn't hunt alone until very recently. We are like all big mammals in that we hunted in packs (e.g. Lions, Wolfs, Dolphins). The invention of the spear/bow made solitary hunting possible.

If anything the gatherer was a role that could be done in a solitary fashion, even today woman usually take the solitary role of staying home to care for children while the male associates with his peers in the workplace.

So why aren't woman more suited to the solitary roles?

Also correct me if I'm wrong but historically, art has been a male domineered field, only recently (past few hundred years) have famous woman artists shone through. So why would art/design be a female role and not a male role?
