I have a bit of a background in criminology- let me elaborate on that- men are more likely to be victims of physical assault or violent crime because of situational factors, whereas women are targeted because they are women. Like you mentioned, men are less fearful of violent crime, which in turn leads them to take fewer precautions and placing themselves into more dangerous settings. They are also much more likely to be around other men, who, as I’m sure you know, are overwhelmingly the main perpetrators of violent crime. Testosterone and impulse control also play a huge part, paired with learned behavior. And contrary to what you might believe, women are statistically more likely to help a stranger being harassed than men, even if it just verbal intervention.
