I submit that there is as much boorish viciousness among women as there is among men, although the deployment tactics are subtler. The two dimensions are at right angles -- the quality of high compassion and free emotion and high degrees of reality and optimism are the positive end of the "z" scale which is usually portrayed vertically. The qualities of antagonism, destructiveness, underhanded hatred, and apathetic deathfulness are waystation on the minus side of the z scale.

Gender-based traits could be an x scale from infinitely feminine to infinitely masculine. That's not a "positive vice negative" metric, just a gradient scale between two extremes.

I suppose the y-scale could be data intelligence, as contrasted with emotio-social intelligence. I think it is unlikely to have a high Z component and a negative Y, but I guess it does happen. It is not unusual for someone who is emotiobally destructive to be very smart about it. Schickelgruber comes to mind.
