I have not found one report that reconciles why hetero men are substantially more aggressive(i.e. straight men commit more murder than gay men) than gay men.

If it is asserted that straight men and gay men have the same level of testosterone, they should display equal levels of aggression according to the vast majority of genetic theories surrounding gender and aggression. In most popular science, aggression in men is heavily attributed to testosterone. Thus, I don’t get how gay men are substantially less violent than straight men when we live in a culture that predominantly celebrates straight masculinity. Feel free to offer any theories how this apparent dichotomy can still be reconciled under theory of more testosterone=more aggression.


BTW It has been reported that gay aggression is very similar to the pattern of female aggression which is primarily verbal.
