A weakness of the superego theory ?

-This can be seen to be gender biased -Freud stated that boys had a subconscious drive to have sex with their mum, however, they didn't act on it due to the fear being castrated by their fathers, causing to the identify with them instead. -This can be seen to be less of a problem for the girls seeing as there is nothing to castrate, meaning that there there is not castration-anxiety to drive to internalised the superego, meaning they have a weaker superego. This means that they are more likely to commit crimes -This can be seen to support the internal statistic of the gender splits in the prison, for example, in the UK it can be seen to 20x more men in prison than women.
