I’m just hesitant to make the argument because it’s pretty often that “women are less violent” or “women are less criminal” comes up and it always feels like there’s a biological implication to that when I lean much more into believing it’s socialisation. I am nervous that it will upset someone that leans into the idea that it’s inherent more than social and to be frank I don’t even think it’s worth arguing or getting upset over. I’m not really that attached to it ending up one way or the other but rather simply saying what I believe.
word, i think your leanings are correct. i’m just surprised “patriarchal conditioning is why men are more violent” would be a potentially controversial stance on a loosely-Marxist forum. but hexbear has surprised me before.
