Criminal Sentencing
Research has repeatedly shown that men get higher criminal sentences than women even when all other factors are accounted for. See also, Seattle Times, “Stncfm.org
Gender bias in prison sentencing
It is well-known in criminology that men are treated more harshly in the criminal justice system, and women are treated more leniently. E.g., … it finds large gender gaps favoring women throu…criticathink.wordpress.com
Yes. I think we, as a society, tend to be conditioned to be a bit more sympathetic to women who commit crimes. When I hear news that a man has killed his wife, I generally assume that it is more likely than not (before having seen the evidence) that he was an abuser who kept going down the road of increasing acts of violence towards the inevitable outcome that would lead to the grim final act of him taking the life of his spouse. When I hear news that a woman has killed her husband, I generally assume (again, before having seen the evidence) that more likely than not the woman must have been driven to it in an act of desperation.
How would you propose to lessen that difference?
If you propose a problem, its generally good to have a solution, even if one that can be worked on.I don't know what the solution is. First it needs to be established that men are in fact dealing with systemic sexism too so a conversation can actually happen.

Does it? Which group commits more crime, which group tends to be repeat offenders, which group tend commit the majority of violent crimes? Clue it isn't women. I am sure there are a handful of cases where a woman obviously got preferential treatment but I doubt it is the norm.Solutions come after establishing that a problem does indeed exist. I don't need a solution handy to discuss something that's a problem.

Have you never worked for a boss who insists that if you bring something to him/her, you should also have a solution to work with? Or simply heard that? I have. Those tend to be the best people, in my experience, to work for/with, so long as they ensure everyone is held to that expectation and don't expect a perfect solution, allow for input from others.
Unnecessary, the history and reality are there for all to see.You didn't read the links.

Unnecessary
You are providing a complaint, not a problem. And you are not providing even ideas for solutions. That us not at all a positive way to manage or lead. It breeds petty complaining and unfair reliance on others to provide solutions to actual problems and those petty complaints.I personally do not know the best way to approach this issue. That doesn't mean the issue shouldn't be brought up for discussion. If I was your boss I would rather you tell me about a problem and not have a solution than have you not bring it up at all.

Don't reply to me if you are going to cut off the point my post. ThanksKay.
You wouldn't agree that systemic sexism is disproportionately towards women?
