With crime it should be no surprise that public intoxication and violation of city ordinances is more common for homeless people. If we account for social economical status then theft, burglary, and shoplifting make also sense. If more men than women are homeless than those numbers will correlate accordingly, but say nothing about why people become homeless.
The initial claim is that men were more "violent or aggressive". If you want to make a claim that men are charged more often than women for murder or being in a violent gang then go ahead, but when it comes to initiating aggression or violence both women and men are fundamentally equal. The idea that men are inherently aggressive and violent while women inherently meek and passive is nothing but gender stereotyping, and that may be a reason for difference in homelessness.
1.) But like, when it comes to homelessness, you looking like junkie and acting like junkie is what gets you eventually kicked out. Illegal drugs is what matter. Not whether you fall under substance disorder due to smoking.
2.) Non-homeless males are more likely to get criminal record. It is exact reason that makes housing for males with criminal record harder to find.
3.) Third, no it is not just that males are more likely to be charged while kills being the same for both genders. Males kill more people. Males get into fights more often. It does not matter whether it is inherent or something that happens due to socialization.
It does not matter that majority of men are not violent at all and not aggressive. What does matter is that there is subset who are like that and those are more likely to end homeless.
2.) Crime record makes it harder to find housing and job and access social services. That includes shoplifting and other similar records.
3.) And of course, you use study that casts addiction so wide, that it is compeletely irrelevant. Smoking is not relevant addiction to homelessness.
Here is study about substances - you used last sentence of paragraph, but it is preceeded by: Men are more likely than women to use almost all types of illicit drugs,13 and illicit drug use is more likely to result in emergency department visits or overdose deaths for men than for women. "Illicit" refers to use of illegal drugs, including marijuana (according to federal law) and misuse of prescription drugs. For most age groups, men have higher rates of use or dependence on illicit drugs and alcohol than do women. However, women are just as likely as men to develop a substance use disorder.
So like, totally.
