Whose fault is the prison system? The men who set it up or the men who end up as inmates?
Same with life expectancy. Whose fault is that? The men who shorten their lives by smoking or the men who shorten their lives by consuming excessive amounts of drugs/alcohol or by getting into disputes with other men who happen to own guns? Admittedly, the disparity due to smoking/drugs/alcohol is narrowing, but so is the disparity in life spans.
Combat deaths I will give you. But remember that NOW and other feminist organizations have long advocated for women in the military and on the front lines. It was Newt Gingrich who said we cannot be in the trenches because we get "infections."
