Well given the case of women overwriting photos of themselves, I would totally agree with you. In my (admittedly few) conversations with Wikipedia article subjects, women object most to the photos of themselves, while men talk about specific lines of text.

Looking at "male-female" and "female-male", and considering the much-cited 15% female editor ratio, it seems women are much more overwrite-happy than men.
Then again, 139:110 are not exactly numbers one does want to base statistics on...

First of all it seems that vast majority of Commons users do not select their gender so they are "none". It obviously spoils the rest of the statistics. Would be good to add to it numbers of males, females and "nones" included, so it would be more clear which group has generally stronger tendency for overwriting. For example strong "overwriter" can make a 1000 overwrites a year, and a weak one just 1. Such "strong" overwrites can also spoil this statistics. For example - one "strong" female overwrite can easily make all overwrites and the rest of females
are
not overwriting at all :-) The same apply the other way - i.e. we can say that women are more vulnerable to be overwriten if you divide numbers of overwrites by number of females and compare it to the other groups.
