Men account for 48.6% of the US population, but are responsible for 82.4% of violent crime. What is the best explanation for this? Source: https://www.bjs.gov/content/pub/pdf/cv18st_rev.pdf …

Testosterone and the 82% seems way low
Agreed. I was surprised that it was only 82.4%. 13.7% have female offenders, but 57.7% of those female offender assaults have female victims, which makes more sense to me.

I voted naturally, but environment is a huge contributor, but wouldnt be so bad if natural state was not predisposed

I actually think it's a combo of all three, but I'd go: Natural > environment > institutional sexism I think that women, because their violent crimes are probably less dangerous, probably get off more than men do for similar crimes.
