> The root cause here is obviously testosterone levels.

This is a patently absurd observation and you didn't even bother to offer an anecdote, as if that would make a difference anyways.

My reply to you is same as the other guy.

But I'll add another side-anecdote: High-T men are more sexually driven, making them care more about appearance of women. What is that appearance? Wide hips and large other things too. All of which are a signal of more vital and healthy child bearing. So not only do they want more sex, they choose women which are more fertile to begin with. Not exactly rocket science, to make the logical connection there, and predict the outcome.

The existence of an exception to a general rule doesn't disprove the rule. Most every "general rule" has notable exceptions that you can find if you look.

But until you demonstrate that girls outnumber boys in terms of violent tendencies, you'll have to accept my rule as true and your exception as...an exception.
