Men have a “higher propensity to commit crimes” compared to women, and we don’t call them “objectively bad” for this. (Well, maybe some radfems do, actually. Not really sure about that!)
I looked for “Women are better than men” on Google, and I found a debate at debate.org debate which cited less crime as a reason that women are better then men.
Women are better. SO many reasons why: 14. It is less likely for a woman to be a serial killer, pedophile or rapist.
Guess what? women are actually superior to men! Here’s the score … women generally seem to have higher social and emotional intelligence than men, are less violent and aggressive, are almost never serial killers
Um, either the folks at debate.org and Psychology Today are secretly radfems, or I need to seriously update here. OK, I’m definitely re-assessing how common this line of argument (“Group X should be regarded as better than/superior to group Y, because of a slight difference in the average level of some psychological trait, such as propensity to commit crimes”) is in the real world. Thanks!

EDIT: Also Psychology Today
