  • The risk for men: being laughed at, rejected, ghosted, hurt

    The risk for women: all of the above and also encountering a misogynist, stalker or murderer

    • There's less than 1 in 9000 chance that you will be killed by an ex-lover and less than a 1 in 200 chance that if you get murdered it will be by an ex-lover

      edit Also don't Act like men can't get physically hurt in a relationship either

      • According to the NSVRC, 91% of victims of rape and sexual assault are women, and 9% male. And, despite being 49% of the US population, 96% of child molestors are male.

        Furthermore a partner (boyfriend/husband) is responsible in almost 40% of homicides involving a female victim, compared with 6% partner responsibility for homicides involving a male victim.(Johnson, Holly; Eriksson, Li; Mazerolle, Paul; Wortley, Richard (2017-04-07). "Intimate Femicide: The Role of Coercive Control") //It's more likely current boyfriends than ex lovers who kill women.

        Women experience higher rates of repeated victimisation and are much more likely to be seriously hurt (Walby & Towers, 2017; Walby & Allen, 2004), //in regards to domestic violence

        I agree, it's definitely a small chance that you will be killed, especially as a male, but it's ever-present in the female subconscious that the danger could be there. My mom, my sister, me and my auntie have all be stalked, one of us escaped an attempt, it's not as uncommon as it seems unfortunately.

      • Self defense is a life skill. Use it. Its also called clear communication.

          • A Martial Art may be a good supplement with the taser and pepper spray.
