Women are more prone to provoking violence in my opinion. I wonder what percentage of the violent criminals in prison had a woman wispering in his ear prior to the crime or became violent because of a womans actions. I am in no way justifing anyone committing crime, i am simply pointing out that women are very capable of manipulating men into such acts, more so then the other way around in my opinion.
Women are also craftier than men when it comes to crime. any expert will tell you a womans weapon of choice when committing homicide is poison. Poison related deaths can often be excused as natural deaths or suicides. Men are messier and leave behind more topical evidence.
I guess my point is that i think women are just as bad as men when it comes down to it, they are just better at covering their tracks and having others do their dirty work.

If your family "needs" money and someone is gonna break into a house etc. etc. the Father or older Son is generally going to be the one best suited for the "job."
It really isn't any more complicated than that.edit on 3-6-2011 by SevenBeans because: (no reason given)
It doesn't matter how much you backpedal. It's easy to pick up what you envision from the subtleties of your tone. You speak as if men are innately violent and abusive. Men do stupid things to impress their women, and yes, even other men. As a crude example: a woman wants a man with money, the man wants the woman but has no money, a crime ensues. Society is to blame, lack of equality is to blame, quality of life is to blame. I answered your question before you even asked it, you see, but I'll go into more detail. Crimes are done mostly in places of poverty, where people are with less options and often resort to crime. Because some societies still view man as the one solely responsible for keeping food on the table, men are burdened with the desire to keep their woman/family happy, and often resort to crime when they think there is no other way. It's the conditioning over all these years.

Not all men are violent, many men wouldn't hurt a fly, but the statistics speak for themselves. Jails are filled with violent male criminals at a much higher percentage than violent female criminals. This to me signals a big problem. I posed a questions, which is along the lines of; What do you think we need to do in order to reduce the high percentage of violent crimes committed by males?

Do yourself a favor and read the original post. The OP is merely looking at violent crime statistics, and noticing the vast difference between men and women.
It may just be as simple as physical attributes. More brutality because men are more muscular. Maybe women participate equally in violent acts, but don't leave as much damage. Plus, no man would call the cops to say a woman just beat him up. Less reporting...

The OP is seriously one of the most hateful spiteful persons I've ever encountered.
Very disrespectful to the males of this world.
OP, how can you preach how perfect women are when you yourself are showing your dark bitter side?
Disturbing.

What am I supposed to say to this, especially since this post is completely unfounded? I don't preach that women are perfect. You can read all of my posts and replies, and you'll see that you're absolutely wrong. I'm not bitter, spiteful or hateful. I suggest you read the original posts in a thread before you waste your time replying.

Interesting question. If women were to simply keep men as breeding stock, but otherwise govern the world themselves, I think the world would probably be quite Utopian!
I'm sure the biggest problem would be that of course many women would want male life partners, and these women would have to be suppressed somehow. Would be a peaceful, if frighteningly totalitarian world.
Peaceful and frighteningly totalitarian are incompatible adjectives.
Explain Margaret Thatcher, Sarah Palin and Hillary Clinton. All three approve of war.

Simple.
Men were born hunters, pillars of the household. Women were born nurturers, the roof of the household. Times have changed however, but these qualities still persist in us. But in a world like today, it's less black and white like it used to be. The gentle fusion of both aspects and a less imprisoning world are what will abolish your perceptions of men.
The tables can easily turn, remember that. Women are fully capable of doing the same things men are, given enough time and conditioning.edit on 3/6/11 by AdamsMurmur because: (no reason given)
