Or you could have just read post #21 which gave the same answer. It was written by a person who studied sociopathy and spent half a life-time working with character disordered people.

Your post seems to imply an environmental or social cause why men commit crimes.

I think it is biological.

Men - testosterone

Women - estrogen

It is just the nature of the sexes. Men are just more likely to be violent and take what they want. I would say the nature of men is toward criminality unless raised in a civilized and moral way to repress that tendancy, which most of us are.

They don't. Majority yes, but not "nearly all". Still, I'd be interested to hear/see your source.

It's anecdotal rocket science.
Would a woman in the White House have invaded Korea, Vietnam, Dominican, Panama, Grenada,
iraq, Afghaniatan? I wouldn't bet on the likes of Hillary or Harris to end the senseless slaughter.. The American Congress voted almost unanimously, every single Congresswoman, to crush Iraq without provocation. There's a woman on every hanging jury, a woman who has the power to nullify..

OH SHUCKS ...I see you are right , I forgot it was not that long ago that , woman couldn't vote. OHHH , wow , I am pretty sure we can even make a somewhat large purchase these days , all by ourselves , not being married and having the man who must make the purchase and own it , and the woman. Wow , seriously not long ago, a man could beat his wife all he wanted.......The male is built different from a female. He is larger , faster, stronger, he can do so much more than a woman. He also has violent (genes or something physical that a woman does.t have) needs that the female doesn't get. And since you want to be picky about crime or violence, most crime is violent. Maybe not in a beat up bloody way, but bad deeds affect us badly and yes can be mentally violent. White collar crime is an violent assault on society's senses and especially to the individuals that get lied to and ripped off.

anyway men do more crime because men are out there doing more of everything than women all the time. They are out there getting more done. They are the mover shakers of the world, men do more, are respected more, and it is a mans world , PERIOD.

Before anyone thinks that I am putting women down , I am not. Besides , look at the shape the world is in at the brains of man. SMH, I still love men just not many.
Read my OP. I postulated that the crime discrepancy is because of an inequality imposed by social expectations in childhood. Some adjustments have been made, nut not others.

There was a thread a while back that looked at violent crime & genetics. Some interesting replies to the thread.

I think its upbringing and ignorance ..and men doing what they saw in the past about the treatment of women.. They could get away with it years ago..
