Ever hear about how the female capos at concentration camps were dreaded more than the males, because they were far more cruel?
Ever read about how Native American tribes handed their prisoners over to their females, because they were capable of contriving far more torturous treatment than their male counterparts?
Ever investigate how many 'black widows' have killed their spouses with slow, agonizing poisons in order to collect the insurance money - and how many weren't caught until the second or even third husband died under the same 'mysterious circumstances' - finally prompting an investigation into past events?
Ever hear about the 'good nuns' who ran orphanages or 'schools for wayward girls' who systematically abused - verbally, physically, and sexually - the youngsters given over to their good Christian care?
Violence and cruelty are not the domain of one gender. And your naivete on the topic is astounding.
