    Why are mass shooters nearly always men?

    It's more than a basic mental health narrative

    • for the same reason why vast majority of geniuses in history were men too.pr2
    • and trolls.fadein11
    • also, between 1982 and 2017 more than 54% of mass shooters were white males, next largest group was black people at 16%lowimpakt
    • Is it because a lot of them are privileged snowflakes that can't handle rejection, disappointment or 'disrespect'?monoboy
    • If Dads spent less time lecturing their sons on how to be 'strong' and more more giving them hugs and support, guns probably wouldn't be an issue.monoboy
    • Maybe we could teach boxing and martial arts in schools as a way to understand dominance, strength and respect? Just my opinion but it helps in deprived areas.monoboy
    • Also, western society is very competitive. Inequality and a lack of a safety net or empathy makes for a lot of unhappy disgruntled people.monoboy
    • Staggeringly, some of whom have access to military grade weapons.monoboy
    • whereas in non-western society -- where cooperation, equality and security are the anchors of life -- people live with respect and tolerance of one anotherGnash

    • lol, fadein, you lost the plot. only responding it being a "western" issue. clearly, it's not. it's a humans issue, snowflake. don't get so riledGnash
    • I look forward to your next triggered post about some silly young students being silly ;)fadein11
    • ya, 'cause that's the same thing being discussed here. that myopic worldview you clutch close in your purse is sorta cute in children, not so much grown-ups.Gnash
    • If I'm not mistaken, testosterone fades in men as they get older. This guy was what, 64?cotton
