    It seams to me that through out history men have allways commited the worst crimes against humanity.
    From despot rulers to serial killers and petty crime , men do the most.
    Yet to me it seams that on a personnal level men get on better with each other than women.
    Women are often very senseitive and take offence much more easily.
    They can be very bitchy and manipulative.
    Often men will have an aurgument with a friend and the next day all will be forgotten , while a women can take years to forgive.
    So what is it about mens psychology that makes them commit worse crimes than women?
    Or it there just the fact that they are physicaly stronger?
    I wonder that if in the future , women are in positions of power more that they will act worse than men have, or if they will show more compassion for others?

    I think that strength is a large part of the answer. Evil men especially want to keep all in subjection, and that applies double towards their women, as they'll lose face if they don't. That usually ends up meaning that the women don't have a chance to compete in that catagory.

    When women do have the chance though, they do it in a different manner, usually. It's not so overt.

    Of course, in those instances where they really go bad, such as in some of the female gangs or some who were pirates years ago, their utter cold-bloodedness even freaked their male counterparts. My theory is that is due to having less respect for life, as they are capable of giving birth to it. It's a kind of "I can do it, so it's not that great" type of thing.

    The reason that men do most of the bad stuff because they do most of the stuff. If one were to make a different kind of list, perhaps one listing only "good stuff" such who wrote the most beautiful music, or who invented cures for the most diseases, you would see men as the ones doing "all the good stuff."

    It's called "testosterone". Women don't have too much of it, so they're too cowardly to do things like cause the murder of ten million people at a crack.

    Mudering 10 million people at a crack is not my idea of courage. I'll be "cowardly" any day.....

    I think it is merely the muscles that the (extra) testosterone produce.

    Power corrupts. As women gain power, they show themselves quite corruptable.

    Men do the bad stuff because they've got "balls". Take away the "balls" and they seem to settle down.

    The fact that men are predisposed to get in trouble is a good argument AGAINST capital punishment. You don't choose your sex, intelligence level, impulsivity level etc.

    Women do their own type of "bad" in the world. Having babies irresponsibly without a father, increases the population most likely to be criminals.
