Though I believe there are other factors involved when it comes to humans. There is behavior and sociological considerations as well. Many men tend to engage in more risky behavior than women and are often resistant to change and growth. They are likely to be affected by an upbringing that encourage such behaviors.

Throughout history, it was almost always men who waged war, invaded other countries, raped and pillaged innocent civilians, etc. If we want a better world, we need to raise our male children better.
