Reminds me of an episode of "Cheers." Cliff calls a woman and starts heavy breathing into the phone, then he's surprised when she hangs up.
"My mom always laughs when I do it to her!"

I recently discovered that, at the beginning of Cheers, Cliff was some five years younger than I currently am, and I'm not happy about this AT ALL.
A while back, someone mentioned Jack Benny, and we all laughed about how he'd always say he was "only 39."
When we were kids, we wondered how old you had to be to think that 39 was young.
Now we know!

Well, you see. The man has a penis, therefore he is at higher risk of violence than women.
Wait, no. It's the opposite.
Cis men experience more of every non-sexual form of violence than cis women on average, to the point where they experience more incidents of overall violence.
The fun part is when you start digging into where that violence is coming from....

A lot of trans women who possess penises are at extreme risk of violence from men.
And trans men experience struggles with an epidemic of both sexual abuse and domestic violence, which is basically not studied at all.

Men (especially young boys) are more likely to be victims of random violence.
Women tend to receive violence from friends and family in the home.
For whatever that's worth
You're missing the context of WHEN THEY ARE the targets. Women are more often on the receiving end for both. Just because one gender gets one type of violence more often, still doesn't mean they receive more instances of it over the other.
