As an adjective, it qualifies a military force, attitude, or female conduct deeply offensive, hostile, and prone to using force.
• Aggressology — An emerging interdisciplinary branch of criminology and psychopathology dedicated to the systematic, scientific, and experimental study of the causes, biological, psychological, and social mechanisms driving violent behaviors, acts of aggression, and the personality profile of the aggressor. Unlike victimology, it focuses heavily on analyzing violence from the perpetrator's perspective.
• Incitement — The act of inciting or setting animals (especially dogs) to attack, or, by extension, the intentional instigation of a conflict between people through hostile encouragement or manipulation; a structural act of inciting violence or intolerance within a social group.
• Self-harm — A destructive act, behavior, or impulse directed consciously or unconsciously by an individual against their own person, resulting in bodily injuries, self-mutilation, or suicide attempts.
