> more men are victims of violent crime
This stat is skewed twice: first, by the larger percentage of men involved in bilateral violent altercations (barfights, gang violence, etc), and second, by the low reporting rates of domestic violence (women are more likely to be the victims, though there are male victims of domestic violence as well).
> more men are unemployed
This is only the case for a few age brackets (16-24, 55-64): https://www.dol.gov/wb/stats/NEWSTATS/latest/unemployment.htm#unemp-rate https://www.dol.gov/wb/stats/NEWSTATS/latest/unemployment.ht...
That doesn't help much from age 25-54 or 65+. Assuming beginning work at 16 and retirement at 65, the man is likely to have the advantage in an arbitrary year of one's working life. The aggregate numbers shift the other way because population growth puts more people in the younger cohorts.
> more men are homeless
Granted.
> more men commit suicide
Granted.
> fewer men go to college
I'm not sure this stat is representative, but I don't feel like doing any more research so I will grant this one.
