I think that whichever stats one uses - it seems true that men are a greater threat. Probably not as much a threat as some claim and maybe less dangerous than reversing SUVs, but still more a threat than women.

What I want to say though is that I'm happy for people to be suspicious of me. I think there's a difference between being wary (suspicous) and pre-judging though, and too many parents lean toward the latter without any evidence.

When kids are concerned - I am sure that there are many more guys with protective instincts than harmful intentions. What I see is an offensive attitude (occasionally) from parents in situations where there is no danger (ie in public) and where being wary would suffice.
