I don't know if there's a causal link between testosterone and violence. I'm on feminizing HRT, so my T is lower than it used to be, and I still get angry about as much as I did before.

And I don't see a lot of trans men throwing rage tantrums when they increase their T.

Maybe the correlation appears after sampling bias - If men are bigger on average, they might feel safer acting violent than a smaller person.

my suspicion would be that male violence is linked very strongly to dating/sex/mating. though that's probably true for both genders. women w/ more inward domestic violence, men more violent against competitors.

In current society I suspect a man being abused by a woman is considered "a joke" (the words "man up" come to mind)
