Those International Men’s Day stats are interesting. The crime ones in particular. Who is committing these violent crimes against men? I’ll give you a clue. It isn’t women. There are obviously women who commit violent crime against men but the numbers are (comparatively) vanishingly small.
The crime stats are grim and men *do* matter. However, it is important to note that MEN are also the perpetrators of the vast majority of violent crime. It is almost ALWAYS male on male crime. Longer prison sentences because they are more likely to commit serious crimes which make them a risk to society. Women generally get lesser sentences because they are often sole carers for babies or children and the reduced sentence is for the well-being of the child, not to let the woman ‘off’.
