Answer to Question 1

Violence against males.
Males are more likely than females to become victims of violent crime, which is mostly caused by other males.
A reduction in violence against males might make a noticeable difference in the general category of violence.
If the government were interested in preventing sexual assault, it would be best to increase the funding for violence against females because they are sexually assaulted more than males.
