It could be more women wanted short men or didn’t care but taller men (or the pre-human ancestor equivalent to “man”) solved that problem with the reach advantage and fists.

that's much more of a stretch tbh
No doubt rape happened but sexual selection in humans was typically on a pair bonding basis. That's not something that would be likely to have an actual impact on the selective pressures. And the idea that trailer men are better at raping women is not even that compelling in the first place. They're would have to be a ****load of rape going on for height differences to manifest in that way.
