Yes, Europeans are more K selected - which is a measure of *paternal* investment in offspring as more or less the result of feedback loops and environmental conditions. None of that changes that women are under much less harsh selection than men.
This pressure was especially intense in Europe where waves of steppe nomads wiped out men and took women as wives over and over. The end result is that Euro men conquered the world because they were the end result of selection for the traits needed to conquer (cooperation).

No, it doesn't because women weren't under selective pressure for it. Men fail to cooperate -> death at the hands of other men Women fail to cooperate -> still leaves descendants The most basic of all evolutionary facts - you get what you select for.
