GENDER VIOLENCE
...It Makes Some Feminists Want a World Without Men...
...But what about women's violence? If feminists (and the media) don't take women's violence seriously, why should men take women's opinions seriously? After all, according to ideological feminists' own definition of hate crimes, violence is merely an opinion acted out, a view expressed by behavior.

Cerebrovascular disease (stroke) death rates by sex:
Definition of cerebrovascular disease : stroke, transient ischemic attack, which is a sudden or a temporary loss of blood flow to an area of the brain, usually lasting less than five minutes but not longer than 24 hours, with complete recovery (See ASA: "Women Less Likely [Than Men] to Have Stroke in the Wake of TIA." )
The data in the table below is drawn from Table 118. Death Rates from Cerebrovascular Diseases by Sex and [select] Ages: 2005
Rates per 100,000 population

Only women 85 years old and over die more often of stroke than men. But these women possess a characteristic overlooked by the ideologues out to prove women are victimized by sexist male doctors: They outlived the vast majority of the population, especially the male population.
