In the US, the average guy is five inches taller and about 30 pounds heavier than the average lady. Also, given a particular body weight, men tend to be stronger than women. Furthermore, 80% of people arrested for violent crime are men.

Seems pretty clear to me.

This is happening by phone.
You don't think it's possible to scare or intimidate someone over the phone?
I do but I don't think this has anything to do with gender.
Do you know that the other person isn’t nearby? That they chose not to lookup your office location? That they’ll fail to find or social engineer details about you?

Sure, it doesn’t happen every time but it’s not hard to find examples of people who thought their stalker would remain remote until that person showed up at their home or office.
