Yeah, like I'm sure they can pull up some data on a specific country such as the US, showing a disparity between the population which was enslaved and discriminated against for hundreds of years, and still is (both discrimination and slavery, as the injustice in the justice system puts more black people into prison for longer and the constitution literally allows slavery as a punishment for a crime) and the majority ethnicity, but even those disparities are honestly tiny, minuscule in comparison to the difference between violent crime rates between the sexes.
Like those are just bullshit you can't apply universally to an ethnicity and definitely not just like a skin tone.
But men being more violent?

Guess my whole comment is just to reiterate this point, which you already made. Anyway there's some more and an updoot
Edit hey guys uhmm I still understand the validity of why the OP of this thread made his comment. I feel the same way. And it's not fucking fun having someone being prejudiced against you. I'd often get the "not all men" reaction as well. But unfortunately it's just a fucking fact we men are well more violent, and strong. We're also more likely to get murdered though, and we're still not prejudiced against other men. Or lots aren't I guess. But we also have better defenses, being men and stronger. The situation is not fair but I'd rather take a little bit of discomfort myself to make women feel more comfortable in the current climate, because of rhe numbers. But exactly because of the numbers it's also a bad argument to claim blacks steal more. Perhaps true in some cases, definitely bullshit in a lot. But definitely not as robust of an observation, not even on the same scale. And having your wallet nicked isn't exactly the same as being graped but again, men do get hurt more by violence but eh. It's a shitty disparity, what can you do.
