A 2018 study (N=46K) of DNA samples & questionnaires found no genes associated with sex played a role in empathy. Women display more empathy, not because it is innate, but because girls are socialized to act on their emotions & prioritize needs of others. www.bbc.com/future/artic...
The myth that women are more naturally empathetic than men

Sickened but not really surprised that homophobia is alive and well on the bench behind me

People have been trying to talk London down, but the evidence tells a different story.
Last year saw:
The lowest murder rate per capita since records began
The fewest murders of those aged under 25 this century
One of the lowest numbers of homicides for almost three decades
