Women are just as aggressive as men. The only difference is they hit who they KNOW can't hit back.
I have friends working as security / managing bars and clubs. They see this every weekend.
A woman will not hesitate to slap a man, throw a drink in his face, scratch him, hit him over a relatively minor argument IF she knows the crowd will protect her.
And she knows they will. She knows if he grabs her back, 5 white knights will jump in. She knows if cops get called, HE is getting arrested. Every time.
That is not "less aggressive." That is calculated aggression.
Male aggression is dumb and direct: I am mad, I hit you, I deal with the consequences.
Female aggression is strategic and protected: I am mad, I hit you, I know you can't hit me back because society will destroy you if you do.
She outsources her violence to bystanders and to law enforcement. She gets to strike, and then play victim the second there is a reaction.
That is leveraging violence by proxy.
So don't give me this myth that women are more peaceful, more nurturing, better at "de-escalating" and "administrating conflict."
They are not de-escalating. They are just fighting in a way where they are guaranteed to win because the system is rigged for them.
If you know you can punch someone and they legally can't punch you back, you're not less violent. You're just a bully with a badge of protection.
And that's exactly what the data shows.
