I don't understand why you're still playing the gender angle when it's obvious that financial standing is the primary motivation for crime...
Is a rich man more likely to mug someone than a poor woman?
I rest my case...

I have no idea why men are more motivated to commit crime than women - you'll have to ask God that one...
(although an evolutionist might tell you that it's because men have traditionally been the hunters of our species, therefore more inclined toward violence...)
Personally, I'm more interested in the racial angle of this discussion - men & women are wired differently by nature, whereas race is a division of culture (and culture is a choice, to a certain degree...)
