That's a good recommendation, cause I would perfer to stay away from the violent ones. I'm not big into violence and I've never actually thrown a punch at anyone!
I know people who were big into judo at one point. Doesn't seem violent since everything is based around overpowering through grappling, but I've no idea how physically demanding it might be
Judo is based more on physical strengh & technique. I don't know exactly its cons and pros, since I never trained it or fought against a judoka.
However, there are a few styles where the class was almost 50/50 male and female population. Kung fu was one (even though you heard more chinese than english, lol), and some japanese arts like Aikido could be really cool. Aikido basically teaches you how to defend against people much bigger and stronger than you.
Go check it out, they always give a first class for free, so there's nothing to lose but an hour of your life!
How often do you work out?

Aikido looks cool! And since I'm a small enough person it'd make sense to train in that aswell
