I think everyone here accepts that women commit violent acts- I even named some of the more infamous perpetrators. Thank you very much. The fact remains men are more violent than women. Men LIKE movies that are more violent than women. Men LIKE to fight and watch fighting (some women too- but not nearly as many). Men are different. Men run on testosterone. Women- generally- do not. Given testosterone you could probably get women that act more like men. But they still would not have the muscle mass and physical strength- nor would their brains be wired like the male brain. I realize this cuts against the feminist stuff- but as I am not a feminist I can say that I think all studies and all of our life experience show us that men and women are different.

One of the ways they are different is that they are more violent.

The earlier DOJ study was limited to violence committed by intimates. This one is about violence in general.
