5. I disagree. Seems to me that women get far harsher prison
sentences for harming white males than do males for harming women.

Beware, women! You try to physically harm a man at your own peril! Society will teach you but good. Conversely, society seems more accepting of men who harm but don't quite kill women. And few men get the death sentence for killing a woman. Some do. Most don't. And assault and battery? Less time than women get, IMO.

I'll try to do some basic research on this.

Now, prison time may be less for women, when the crime doesn't involve hurting white males.
