Hmm! Excellant points! Thanks.

I should note that the levels of violence seem to be the same among men and
women. It just seems to be a statistical fact that more men are violent than
women are. I would imagine that's true in many ways. And of course that is
not to say that all men are violent and that all women are not violent.
