Same reason why whites thought they had the right to hang blacks that did not follow their racist social codes. Power. Power is one of the, if not the most, desired feeling in our species and social groups will brutally oppress others for that feeling of entitlement. It has happened many times throughout our history as a species.

For this specific example, he was raised in a sexist environment where he believe women were nothing more then sex objects and when he could not get women in a sexual way (probably the only way he knew), I assume he felt he needed to show his entitlement in a very destructive way.
