Women are the primary readers of the true crime genre, of which I am one. Of the stories I've read a majority of female victims are prostitutes or drug addicts or frequent places where crime is more likely, i.e. bars, dangerous neighborhoods, and large blue cities. I'm ever mindful of my surroundings and I don't take careless chances, but my concern about being a victim of violent crime is negligible.

Status competition among males is the primary driver of individual and group violence. It should hardly shock us that the violent competitors for status mostly murder one another.
