Priority in problem solving? Violence is ONE problem not two.
You are the one who needs to examine the stats. If you want to split it
into sexes then you are focussing on the lesser problem. Go to any E.R.
or police station and ask them who is more often seriously injured or
killed by violent acts. The answer is overwhelmingly "men." To be as
wrong as you are about this you must be ignorant, stupid, or sexist.

You have attempted to draw attention away from the more pressing
problem. You have also perpetuated the myth that there is no problem of
violence against men by pretending that the comparably tiny amount of
violence against women is the most violence anyone is suffering.
