      Fear of demonstrably real repercussion. Not unwarranted fear.

      You’re trying to state that the fear should be just the same, but the dynamic is not. Men don’t tend to kill other men out of unrequited love. Trying to say that the difference lies purely in how the media portrays the problem is completely ignoring the context.

      It doesn’t matter if the murder rate of men to women vs men is roughly the same if the causes are fundamentally different.
