    Already knew that 20% of men (vs 2% of women) leave their partners when they get seriously ill - but geez, I didn't realize that it was like a murderous anger kind of reaction for some of them.

      I've read that men that have more sisters are less likely to leave their partners.

      It seems being around women helps to learn how to be around women.

      I'd imagine the worse would be those who go to sex-segregated education in their early years for partner loyalty.

      Homicidal idealtion is actually real common amongst male head of household types. You see it alot when the head of a single income household loses his job. I forget the numbers but theywere suprisinly high last I saw them.
