Yeah people like to say that, but they don't understand the implications.

See, I think, to participate in society you need to meet a certain standard of behavior. Kind of like how if someone wants to drive, they need to get a license. If they can't pass their driving test, they don't get a license and they can't drive. I don't care if it's because they are near sighted and can't see the road, or so fucking old that they can't react to traffic, they're not getting behind the wheel.

I say things like "maybe it's socialization" or "why don't you retake your test with glasses on" because I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. But if what you say is true, and men are innately violent as a result of their hormones, then we'll have to look into more drastic measures. As we've already established, I don't give a fuck if men get castrated. Beyond that, we might have to look into barring men from owning weapons that may exacerbate their violent nature. We may have to ban men from certain occupations that wouldn't be suited to a violent prone demographic. After all, traffic laws don't change to accommodate people who fail their driving test. Here's to hoping it's socialization.

It's not socialization though. That's one of the most obvious things.
