"BTW, just as many females are creepers as males."
Evidence suggests otherwise. Number of female rapists? Number of female serial killers? Number of female stalkers? All exponentially smaller than the numbers of men indicated for such aberrant behaviors.

Did you even look at the study?
They're actually very equal.
Stop using theist logic and stick with evidence, even when you don't want to.

Have you ever heard of a woman entering a men's bathroom, raping and killing him? Probably not. There won't be twice as many people in the slow hours. If I am in the woman's room at 1 in the morning at a gas station and a man walks in, I'm going to know to be defensive. If it is a unisex bathroom, I lose that edge. Furthermore, I don't want my 10-year-old niece pissing in the same bathroom as 40-year-old men or seeing them at the urinal.

I can post more. This is getting sickening. Keep the sexism to yourself.

Here ya go:
http://www.csom.org/pubs/female_sex_offenders_brief.pdf
" National criminal justice statistics reveal that of
all adults and juveniles who come to the
attention of the authorities for sex crimes,
females account for less than 10% of these [sex offender]
cases (FBI, 2006)."
http://www.deathreference.com/Py-Se/Seri...ers.html#b
"According to Hickey's 1997 database of approximately 399 serial killers, the average age of the murderer at the time of the first killing was 27.5 years, and they typically were white males. Criminologists James A. Fox and Jack Levin (2001) found that males made up more than 90 percent of the sample."

"87% of stalkers are male."

Call me biased but I have sneaking suspicion that there is a causal link between high levels of testosterone and the aggression/violence found in young men generally. I am not entirely convinced that high levels of oestrogen have a similar effect on women.

Haha, estrogen just makes people horrible.
Rennet, so you came up with a handful cases. Bravo. Oh, wait, I asked for bathroom examples. I take it back. If you think I'm sexist, you're pretty biased. I rather dislike both sexes, to be fair. Women seem more likely to kill their kids than men. They seem more likely to poison people. Does that make you feel better? My concern stands. If you are an adult male, I don't want little girls going in the same bathroom as you. It goes both ways, you know. Little boys should be able to pee without grown women standing around doing their makeup.

That's something at least. You don't think females can't be stalkers. However, notice that both your studies dealt with reported crimes. How many men will admit to being raped or abused by a female? Not many.

That's the excuse, but my ex, Crune Punt, was just a bitch
When we were staying with friends (of hers) our host gave her a t-shirt-cum-night-dress with the caption "Awake And Cranky"

Of course females can be stalkers. They can be anything that a man can be, but let's face it, some things are more likely when you're a male or a female.
As for the amount of men admitting to rape, the same goes for women. There aren't many men that I can overpower and rape. Furthermore, having sex with a male requires that they are aroused, unless we are talking penetration and I have to assume that women raping men in their behinds is rare indeed.

Haha, there is all around bitch and holy hormones bitch. Women do deserve the excuse on occasion. Hormones can be horrible. The same goes for men. My poor son is hitting the age where he's "changing" and some days, he just seems confused or mad for no reason.
