That's the same argument used by conservatives to discount black on black crime. If it doesn't hold water there, it doesn't hold any here.

- mruts 7y agoThe parent isn’t discounting male on male crime, in fact quite the opposite. He was responding to a comment about maybe men need more protection than women. So your analogy to the police discounting black on black crime isn’t correct.
- DangitBobby 7y agoI'm not discounting male on male crime. The comment was supposed to be a confirmation of the parent's question. The other stuff came out because I learned it while reading that wiki and thought it was interesting, not because I think it's okay to ignore violence against men. (But I understand how it sounds like an implied "they deserve it" argument)
- raxxorrax 7y agoYeah... intrinsic group characteristics are also used in many arguments you might find less righteous.
