36. Check out www.bjs.gov probably.

The bureau of justice statistics. They've probably got it split out in crosstabs somewhere. I'd actually be surprised if that's the case in the general population, but I could certainly see it in gender segregated populations like jails. I would image assaults in jails skew the 'assaults on males' numbers up.
