When a teenage girl attacked a disabled woman in eastern France last September, debate raged over whether girls were as aggressive as boys. Police in the country have now launched a campaign targeting girl gangs such as Ghetto Youth, Bana Danger and Tokyo Girls. In the UK, the Centre for Social Justice was so concerned last year by the rise in the number of women in British street gangs that it conducted a study; it concluded that the involvement of girls in British gangs is usually defined by their sexual relationships with boys.
