My wife is a firm believer that women are worse than men in pretty much every way, but men act out in ways that get you in prison.
Men smack you around. Women just destroy lives. Only one of those lands you in jail.
You raise a good point. Men tend to be more direct in their angry response (point a gun at you, punch you in the nose, etc.).
Whereas women tend towards the passive-aggressive, knife-in-the-back sabotage method. As vicious as they are using it on men, they can be even worse using this one on other women they don’t like.
I have to agree with her.
Men are just more up front about things, if they are not the sort that just clams up to avoid conflict.
