Men have been violent more than women for all of recorded history. I am hard pressed to think of a time when women were just as aggressive as men. We have today isolated cultures more akin to our distant ancestors than our present society and the violence in them is also mostly men.

"Men are conditioned to be more violent, to resolve conflict with violent and to pen up emotions (until it bursts into violence)."

True but IMHO the historic, prehistoric, and current history of violence in men does not lend itself to your conclusion. Looking at primates for example the males fight for dominance being more aggressive than the females.

"Violence is also widely considered to be masculine."

Yes based on historic observable behavior throughout history and today as well as in primate behavior.

"So a failed man trying to re-establish is masculinity is far more likely to resort to violence."

True but not the only reason men resort to violence.

"Most of this is nurture, not nature."

Based on observable facts I disagree nature, while nurture centrally plays a part,  is the dominant factor.

Recorded history implies civilization, which implies there's a huge amount of nurture. Recorded history can't disprove the nurture null hypothesis.

But scientific trials can. In controlled trials, like the Milgram experiment, women are just as capable of violence as men, if we let them.

Where do you live where most human behavior isn't impacted mostly by nurture? I don't know which facts you're observing that are so free of the nurture component that you can confidently claim they're due to nature.
