Okay. Murder victims are predominantly male (~3/4) aged 30 or younger.

So if what you both say is true, women are more likely to be abducted, men are more likely to be murdered.

Yeah, exactly. The difference is that men don't let it control whether or not they go outside.

I'm willing to bet those male murder statistics are just related to gang activity. That's not a huge part of the general population. 99.999999% of men are probably pretty safe to walk around outside alone and not get bothered or noticed at all.
