“…An illustration of this argument can be found in the domain of intimate relations. Although there is much debate concerning the validity of the conclusions drawn from this research, we can at least conclude that many studies have shown that women are at least equally aggressive, or -according to some researchers -even more aggressive than are men towards their partners (Archer 2000;Archer and Ray 1989;Arias, Samios and O'Leary 1987;Bland and Orne 1986;Brinkerhoff and Lupri 1988;Brutz and Ingoldsby 1984;Malone, Tyree and O'Leary 1989;Marshall and Rose 1987;Morse 1995;Riggs, O'Leary and Breslin 1990). Our point here is not to conclude that women form a greater danger to their partners than do men.…”

This paper critically evaluates the evolutionary proposition that men's greater aggressiveness is the result of male intra-sexual competition. For this purpose we review and discuss experimental psychological and survey studies, as well as sociological and cultural anthropological work on gender differences in anger and aggression. The reviewed studies do not support the idea that men's concern for women, re ected in the salience of intra-sexual competition, is the major cause for male's supremacy in violence. On the contrary, we argue that the fear of losing status and respect in the eyes of fellow men is the major concern that evokes male anger and aggression. The implications of our argument for the evolutionary theory are discussed.

“…Other surveys using the CTS in the United States and in other countries have replicated the finding that wives are about as violent as husbands (Brinkerhoff and Lupri 1988, Browning and Dutton 1986, Brutz and Ingoldsby 1984, Jouriles and O'Leary 1985, Kennedy and Dutton 1989, Mason and Blankenship 1987, Meredith, Abbott, and Adams 1986, Nisonoff and Bitman 1979, Rouse, Breen, and Howell 1988, Steinmetz 1981, Stets 1990, Szinovacz 1983). The CTS has also been used to study violence in dating relationships, with the same sexually symmetrical results (e.g., Arias and Johnson 1989, Arias, Samios, and O'Leary 1987, Cate et al 1982, DeMaris 1987, Lane and Gwartney-Gibbs 1985, Laner and Thompson 1982, Makepeace 1986, Marshall and Rose 1990, Rouse et al 1988, Sigelman, Berry, and Wiles 1984.…”
