If the government wanted to reduce youth violence and there were extra funds available for anti-violence programs, would it be more beneficial to dedicate the funding to violence against females or violence against males? Explain!
What will be an ideal response?
Violence against males.
• Males are more likely than females to become victims of violent crime, which is mostly caused by other males.
• A reduction in violence against males might make a noticeable difference in the general category of violence.
• If the government were interested in preventing sexual assault, it would be best to increase the funding for violence against females because they are sexually assaulted more than males.
