I didn’t mean for this post to cause a bunch of arguing in the comments =(

I thought this was just some gallows humor (e.g. “Everything’s lovely except that I have to fear for my safety all the time”) type of shitpost that sounded similar to comments I’ve heard from women irl a lot.

    2022: Deaths by Accidents (unintentional injuries): 227,039 source

    Deaths by murder and nonnegligent manslaughter: 21,781 source

    While I didn’t find 2022 numbers for the male to female ratio, in 2023 it was 13,789 to 3,849… source

    If you’re uninformed maybe hold back with accusations.

      Sure, men are getting killed. But they are not getting killed because of their gender, while women on the other hand are often killed exactly because they are women.

      So, a woman going out alone in the dark is always at risk of being raped, killed or violated in other ways.
