Given that the population is roughly 50% female and 50% male how about putting those numbers into perspective?

From the FBI's statistics on rape:

Total Male Female
7,065 6,966 99
100% 98.6% 1.4%

The males would need to under report at a ratio of 3500% to roughly equal the population and that would still require assuming that females don't similarly under-report.

But lets have this discussion on the basis of something where there is zero under-reporting and essentially zero possibility of mistaken gender identification. How about bank robbery?

You are absolutely correct Wayne when you say it is a crime of violence not sex. And so far women, for reasons both biological and cultural have not been the ones to pick up swords.
