I wouldn't trust me either. I don't see that it does tend to create more wolves, but perhaps eventually it will. I've yet to meet a man who is genuinely indifferent to the abuse of women. But I definitely see more men deciding that, whatever happens, they will not intervene because it's too dangerous for them.
I believe it will create more wolves because if you're treated like a wolf, regardless of your true nature, you might as well behave like a wolf and gain the benefits that come with it, including revenge. I cannot be a wolf at all times because it's not in my nature, but I admire them and am learning to be one when the opportunity arises.
I will stand up for individual women who I know to be worth defending, but my attitude toward women in general is that they can take care of themselves, just as I'm expected to take care of myself because I'm a man. The excuse that it's too dangerous to help is valid, but I don't care to help. If I was on a sinking ship it would be children and men first.
There are still plenty of manipulated 'white knights' in existence, but I'm hopeful that the times are changing. Feminist complaints of a rise in "disturbing" attitudes among boys are encouraging, even if the boys really are young wolves in the making.
I don't think this will create more wolves either, at least in terms of sexually aggressive males as in 'wolf whistle'. If anything it might tend to take males who simply aren't that way out of the bars and the dating pool altogether, which would leave women with less savory options. Most men wouldn't sexually abuse or rape anyone even if they knew they could get away with it, so I completely disagree with the proposition that it's a crime of opportunity for any but the same tiny percentage of sick men that already exist.
