It's almost like she's trying to be polite because she knows that sometimes guys turn violent when they're rejected.

EDIT: Look, I'm getting tired of this. Not a single person arguing with this is having a conversation about this that is based in reality, they are just trying to twist words to make it sound like maybe there's some equivalence here. Have some statistics from Australia. You can look them up for your country if you care:

https://www.abs.gov.au/statistics/people/crime-and-justice/personal-safety-australia/latest-release

Those discrepancies are shocking but not really that surprising if you've lived in society at all. Also, this is just rates of violence, of any kind. It says nothing at all about the consequences of that violence. I'll bet if you looked into that it's worse for women too. If you're wondering why so many categories don't have rates of violence against men, it's because they have a "high relative standard error", which is statistics speak for "the rate is so low we can't properly measure it".

But if you're saying, "NOt All mEn" in the face of this reality then let's be real, you don't actually give a shit about this. You just feel personally attacked and you want to deflect. Men getting mad because their fragile egos are bruised. Maybe some of them would turn violent if a woman said it to their faces. As they say, a hit dog will bark.

This. And I'm a guy. I completely understand why women are "overly" nice.
