The majority of people being killed are men. 78.7% worldwide according to the UN of murder victims are men. This doesn't make any sense. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homicide_statistics_by_gender

My great-uncle once said, ‘figures don’t lie, but liars can sure figure’. Trying to change the narrative from killers to victims in an effort to try and make my statement look untrue is a bad-faith argument.

Try ‘serial killer statistics by gender instead’. Most of those men are being killed by other men.

Serial Killers by Gender

Yes that's a possibility. It's also probable that a lower percentage of women serial killers are caught because of the expectation that women are not the killers. Regardless women are not the primary target.

Women can't even be prosecuted for other violent crimes like rape.

Okay. Let me try this again, slower. With fewer words.

Most. Women. Are. Killed. By. Men.

Most. People. Murdered. Are. Men.

Police. And. Courts. Are. Biased. Against. Men.

Being a condescending arsehole isn't gonna get you anywhere mate.

And all that is done to men mostly by other men. Hence she was right to be nervous around a man.
