I suppose women do like more 'nurturing' attitudes, sometimes. I do think that women (especially mothers) do have a nuturing instinct, but so do other animals. But don't forget it's the female lionesses that do the hunting and the male seahorses that do the nurturing. So, in some species it's different. Maybe some females are more nurturing than others. I don't know. Maybe some males are more nuturing, too. I think it depends on the individual.

I think that males are (generally speaking) more energetic, competative, and agressive. This is common behaviour seen in most species on earth. Because of this natural trait, males tend to be more prone to violence. I don't think this is always the case, though. There are always acceptions to the rule. I can be competative, not physically but mentally. In Japan, both boys and girls are acedemically and athletically competative. So, humans are a unique breed I'd have to say.

But all in all, TV is stupid anyway (violent or not). It makes people comfortable to be ignorant. It's all just a fantasy, an illusion. It is the thoughts of others (who are often anti-intellectual and ignorant themselves) being projected mindlessly upon our catatonic brains and thus these idiot ideas seep into society itself. I think most of you have been able to realize this by now. TV does not reflect real life. Period.

Thank you.
