The text claims that women shoplift four times more often than men.

The evidence suggests that shoplifting is committed by both genders almost equally, with men being arrested more frequently for property crimes in the US. Women are slightly more likely to report past shoplifting, but the claim that women shoplift four times more often than men is not supported by the data. Therefore, the claim is exaggerated and not substantiated by current statistics.
