The scale and impact of women with personality disorders is quite large. Many of the issues men face is driven by these not being recognised. dontpet October 20, 2019 67 upvotes /r/MensRights About 1 in 50 women have a borderline personality disorder. https://www.nami.org/learn-more/mental-health-conditions/borderline-personality-disorder This is 3 times as common in women. About 1 in 20 women have a narcissism disorder. https://www.businessinsider.com.au/the-main-difference-between-narcissistic-men-and-women-2017-10?r=US&IR=T This is about 60% as common in women. My rough math is that if you combine the two groups men and women are very similar in number. The difference comes when they engage with divorce situations, access to children, and domestic violence interventions.

So is it quite similar to Asperger's being as something that mostly affects men, but it actually just underreported or not recognised as much in women?
