British girls among most violent in world

This is an interesting reflection for peacemakers.

girls were most likely to fight with friends and family members, while boys were much more likely to engage in violence with strangers.

What it does seem to support is that there really are gender (hormonally related?) differences with regard to violence, but that there are cultural factors at work too and than therefore there are possibilities for strategies for peacemaking and conflict resolution that can 'work' these factors.
