That statement is False.

In all organisms that we can observe, Testosterone is the hormone that caused organisms to be more violent and aggressive, Humans are not different.
These violent and aggressive behaviours would increase the likelihood for crimes to happen, which makes male crime rate is higher than that for females in every society
