“Rates of female-perpetrated violence higher than male-perpetrated (28.3% vs. 21.6%)”

This is actually pretty substantial and I feel like this is something that should be actively talked about. If we are to look world wide there is evidence to support that Physcal violence is committed more by women or is equal to that of male.

“Rates of physical PV were higher for female perpetration /male victimization compared to male perpetration/female victimization, or were the same, in 73 of those comparisons, or 62%”

I also found this interesting

“None of the studies reported that anger/retaliation was significantly more of a motive for men than women’s violence; instead, two papers indicated that anger was more likely to be a motive for women’s violence as compared to men.”

I feel like men being the main perpetrator is extremely harmful and all of us should work really hard to change it. what are y’all thoughts ?

Edit: because people are questioning the study here is another one that supports it.
