“Any psychologists around with answers?”

A number of the assumptions are erroneous. The rate of murders committed by females is considerably greater than suggested in the article, although still about a fifth of that committed by men. See:

USA Homicide Rates: 1950-2010; By Race And Sex
http://wmbriggs.com/post/5969/

The article also fails to take into consideration the way in which females more often prevail upon males to commit the murders on behalf of the female, thereby distorting the statistics.

Females who commit murders more often do so by poison, caregiver abuses, and other alternative means within their capability and opportunity, and some of those murders fail to be recognized, prosecuted, and included in the murder statistics.

Women who do commit murder are much less likely to be sentenced to death than men who commit murder.

(This is setting aside abortions. I don't know what the breakdown is but presumably a large proportion, probably a majority, of abortionists are men.)

Answer: ALL psychologists have answers. They rely on TRUTHFUL answers by answering their own questions.
