chosen: American men are more violent than men in other Western countries for multiple reasons. There is a strong link between male violence and male privilege. As masculinity is constructed as a marker of privilege, men in society are often taught to view control, violence and domination over women as part of their role as men. This reinforcement of privilege often comes through subtle and seemingly benign behaviors as well as more overt displays of violent behavior. Additionally, many Western countries lack the resources and services that address the underlying causes of male violence; the lack of resources to provide proper education, rehabilitation and job creation leaves men prone to perpetuate cycles of violent behavior. This disproportionate violence affects women, minorities and those in low-income communities and communities of color the most. Furthermore, gun control laws are weaker in the United States than in other countries and this provides American men with ready access to weapons and greater lethality in their violence. Additionally, our culture of hypermasculinity continues to propel a narrative of male violence as acceptable, normal and even desirable, further exacerbating an already critical problem. Thus, American men are more violent than men in other Western countries due to multiple factors including male privilege, lack of resources and the cultural acceptance of violence.
