Hahaha.... wait, you're serious? Men are far less likely to engage in violence? Do we live on the same planet? According to FBI statistics in 2012: men committed 88.7% of homicides, 99.1% forcible rapes, 77.1% aggravated assaults, and 82% of arsons. Now, I still think men can be great. Women can also be great. The genders are equal. But don't lie to yourself.

Although I do agree with you that, especially compared to instances of female-perpetrated domestic violence, men are treated more unfairly.

Random violence is not the same as violence towards someone you're supposed to care for. If you break it down by race and age things also start to look different on and on. However what he said is true.

Take Trump and Hillary for example, Hillary would have escalates the Syria conflict into a full blown proxy war against Russia to save face from a lie the media pushed since 2016 and that her servers were hacked by them.

Meanwhile Trump was baited over and over to increase military presence and action in the middle east but never did. Take off the financial motivation for politicians to do as they will and you get a better picture. Hell even external factors like does he have sons or daughters on and on play on how likely someone will be towards pushing wars.

Both genders are violent. Men get results from theirs. Ender's Game comes to mind.

Yes, both genders are capable of violence. But to claim that they commit them at equal rates is just plain wrong. And if it were true that men simply get results more, then the assaults at least would be equal, but they're not even close.

Do you dispute that lesbian relationships have the highest rates of DV?

They actually do, it’s just that men tend to be violent with other men, while women are violent against their husbands or their children. (and that often goes unpunished unless it is extremely severe)

Most people do not think of abortion as females being violent even when it is the murder of their child.

The genders are a lot of things, but they are not equal.
