Violence and Masculinity

In my opinion there are many different ways you can look at this argument.  It is pretty clear to me atleast that violence has become quite standard in the media today. Violence is seen all around us and become somewhat of a norm as long as it isnt something completely horrific and unheard of. It has been proven that men are more violent than women and I don'd know that there is really too much to argue there.  But what I think they have all wrong is the reason that men are more violent.  Men may feed off of the media in some ways but i really dont think that it is THE reason violence exists more in males then females. Men are naturally more aggressive than females are so obviously the crime and violence rates are going to be a little bit higher. I dont think you can blame the media for this however. Go back hundreds and hundreds of years ago for instance; men were far more violent than woman and i dont think that media had near the power back then as it does today.  Did you ever hear of a woman gladiator or soldier way back in history? no because they really didnt exist and if they did it was very scarce. Men are naturally more violent than women and that is something that will never change. I think that blaming this on the media is just and excuse and a lot of nonsense!
