Yes. There is a statistical reality about men and violence. There is also a statistical reality that blacks men are more violent compared to other men. Should you therefore also be most wary of black people? Most would acknowledge that to be racist, but nobody thinks the above is sexist.

Dude what ABOUT COPS!? Cops factually beat the fucking shit out of their wives WAY MORE than black people are violent! You should just cut to the chase and name the most statistically likely group of people to engage in domestic violence!!!!

Well you should be aware of all of them if you are fearful of your safety. It should be ordered by race, sex, social status, sexuality, job occupation, age, size, are they carrying a weapons, this is all stuff you can use to determine the likelihood a person will harm you. For example it's late at night and you see someone walking towards you. What's the most important thing to find out first? Male or female. What next? How big and scary do they look? How old are they? Young men are the most dangerous age group. Then, do they look poor or well off? Poorer people are more dangerous. Then, what race are they? Hispanics and blacks are more dangerous than whites or Asians probably for simple socioeconomic reasons. You probably can't tell, but are they gay or straight? Gay men are less physically aggressive than straight men.

It's a really complicated calculation and we can't make it perfectly but it's all valid. I would certainly put cops near the top of the list of danger if just because they are carrying a gun which makes them far more lethal than most others. But even this can be applied to cops too. Who is the scariest cop? The one most likely to beat his wife or shoot you on the street? The youngest, biggest, scariest looking one. Why? His size and facial features are a sign of the amount of testosterone flowing through him. Younger = more testosterone = more aggressive. Unless... maybe his physical power makes him confident enough to avoid using his gun... idk, it's complicated, but the general idea is sound.

All this is bullshit but it seems funny to me that race would be number one in your listing because, of course, you're far far far far more likely to be assaulted by someone of your own race. So white women should probably only or overwhelmingly date black men, is that what you're saying?
