Holly, I agree with you. Even if in a specific instance letting yourself be robbed might be safer than resisting, armed robbers will factor in the net rate of violent resistance in determining whether to continue their "career".

Of course women who don't resist are more likely to be invited to continue the crime in a more remote location where the crime is likely to change and the risk of casualty is exponentially increased.
