I know. You say it stems from not having enough stuff.
But, then why are there more males than females?

Also, you do realize you're taking a sample of 50 criminals from Dallas and applying those statistics to society as a whole, right?

no I'm not. I'd be happy if you just explained why there are 45 men and 5 women on this list.
