Why do men have a greater propensity for violence? Are you sure this would be true if you believed otherwise?

They have more testosterone & a different form of intrasexual competition. It holds true for all cultures including non-human primates.

So you don't believe there's any cultural difference in male socialization around violence?

Oh, I do. Some cultures valorise violence & this makes a difference. But its a crime in ours & men punished more harshly than women

You are saying we don't valorize violence? What is our image of Valor?

Yes, I am. It's a crime. Some men use it in intrasexual competition but we encourage healthy & safe versions of this.

We don't encourage men to hit each other or women. Fighting games, martial arts, action movies etc are the approved outlets for aggression.
