Why men commits crimes?

No, i do not think that women commit more crime than men. The statistics show that to an extent women have increased in committed crime, however this is not as higher as men committing crime.

Why are most Negroes criminals?

My general perception is that most (not all) blacks have an undeserved sense of self-entitlement which they use as rationalisation for the crimes they commit. I would say this is true of most criminals who want to have wealth but not have to work to get it. It just seems, sadly, that a disproportionate amount of blacks feel that way when compared to non-blacks.


Why do females commit less crimes compared with men?

Don't assume which men and women do less or more crimes, because you don't know everyone in the world, so you can't make an assumption of "why do females commit less crimes", because you don't know that. Meet over the 6 billion people in the world first, and then ask this question. Sounds impossible? Of course, because the world may never know who does the most crimes between female and male.
