No, I meant exactly what I said, more men are violent criminals per capita than women. What you said is also true, but it's not what I meant.

[NhanH]

Moreover, unless we are talking about a very unusual subset of the population, the ratio of men:women is always almost 1:1, which renders the two statement functionally equivalent

[devmunchies]

Oh you meant in relation to women. I misinterpreted that you were saying if you pick 10 men, then over 5 of them are violent criminals.

[lobocinza]

They're equivalent, in this case.

[gruez]

They're both talking about the same phenomena and are technically correct, but the framing is different. Specifically, the latter wording tries to defuse blame on males.
