My own thoughts on that is that it could be that younger females are more likely to be introduced to drug use by older boyfriends and so forth. Males are likely to have younger girlfriends at that age and thus less likely to be introduced to drugs by them. That is one explanation anyway.<br /><br />TonyTony Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07034697658099080220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289688322615470169.post-89734198962398039732011-09-04T14:10:27.315+08:002011-09-04T14:10:27.315+08:00Linda and Evan,

They are also seen as risky in varying degrees. One could then argue that males are more willing to take such risks and go against what mainstream soceity says how one should behave. In TA terms they have more access to their FC and RC ego states than females do which is quite an interesting sociological statement really.<br /><br />TonyTony Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07034697658099080220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289688322615470169.post-21565606794846389722011-09-04T07:21:06.609+08:002011-09-04T07:21:06.609+08:00A combination of the biological (testosterone) and...A combination of the biological (testosterone) and the social (conditioning to sacrifice and ignore feelings) I would think.Evanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13355215688351759230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289688322615470169.post-35703830143689201932011-09-03T22:01:16.420+08:002011-09-03T22:01:16.420+08:00Maybe thinking what is different in the one segmen...Maybe thinking what is different in the one segment where this does not hold true may help locate the answer.
