Susanna Gaschke, writing in Die Welt, makes an irrefutable argument: nearly all the evil, violent deeds that take place anywhere on the planet are committed by men:
Nur ganz selten erstechen Frauen nachts um drei Uhr auf Volksfesten andere Leute. Ganz selten organisieren sie Nazi-Aufmärsche oder werfen Steine und Flaschen auf Polizisten. Sie schreiben selten nach Mitternacht verbitterte E-Mails an Gott und die Welt. Sie versuchen auch nur selten, Männer, die sich nicht wehren können, weil sie um ihre Karriere fürchten, in Hotelzimmern zum Sex zu zwingen. Und ebenso wenig nötigen Frauen Männer und kleine Jungen, sich von Kopf bis Fuß zu verhüllen, damit deren Anblick keine unzüchtigen Gedanken bei der weiblichen Population erregt.
Unfortunately, Frau Gaschke doesn't have a a good solution for the problem other than to exhort women to avoid men that exhibit violent, extremely sexist, tendencies. But that would only exacerbate the problem. I've already written about how the mass migration of talented, ambitious women from Saxony has resulted in a shortage of women in places like Chemnitz - further isolating the male population there and only intensifying their xenophobic feelings.
Women do have a moderating influence on male behavior. Take the Roman Catholic Church, for example: the exclusion of all female leadership and influence has allowed the church to become a criminal enterprise - attracting and protecting pedophiles from around the world (read the Pennsylvania Grand Jury Report - if you have the stomach to do so - with its detailed description of child rape committed by hundreds of priests just in that US state alone.)
Of course, women are not able to inflict as much damage as men on society in part because they lack the power for the most part. As women do attain power, is their capacity for evil really that different from men?
