Sorry folks.. War, rape and pillage is what _men_ do. It’s in the genes..
Women (not necessarily the gentler sex themselves either) are a calming influence when not the target of over testosteroned males when they tend to suffer due to smaller stature, although a .380 cal. or 9mm pocket pistol can even things up really well.
We are only a few hundred thousand years out the cave, you know.. Mere enfants terribles in the maturing business.. Another few hundred years and the males will become so feminized that they’ll do nothing but have coffee klatches and sit around doing quilting while the women rule the world and use old stored sperm to have a kid now and then.
