The gender data gap

Women aren't pressured to work and pay the bills nearly as much, if it all. Everyone I know, the husband always finds a grueling job to get all the bills paid, and the wife finds a part-time job working in some hobby field for self-fulfillment. Even when she is a large part of the income, she doesn't face nearly as much pressure because that's her husband's job, and she can always crutch on him.

Women less likely to survive natural disasters

Blatantly false. It's been "women and children first" for all of civilization.

Women paid less despite pursuing high paying careers and asking for raises and promotions at the same rate as men, article with sources

They don't pursue the same type of careers as men. Women usually pursue a career for self-fulfillment; men usually do it for money.

Women do more housework than men even when women are breadwinners

Because women are perfectionists about housework and are the ones insisting that so much be done. I don't know why this is but men will do housework, they just don't see the point when the house is already fine. I feel like women almost look for chores to do 24/7.

120 women killed by their partners or family members every day, evidence from data indicates that gender roles/inequalities play a predominant role

Even if it was reported when it was the other way around, they'd just blame him instead and not count it. Besides this isn't "sexism", it's because hormones make you go absolutely nuts. Think about a woman's most hormonal time of the month and multiply that by like 10x, and make it more angry, and that's what you have men feeling 24/7. It also makes them a lot stronger. If men and women swapped hormones I guarantee you that statistic would flip.

If this is what you think, how do you explain all the bullshit stereotypes about "women are too emotional to be president" etc?

Honestly if I believed this were true I would immediately start advocating that all males be either castrated or locked up, for the good of society. You should be glad that feminists think more highly of men than you do.

It's still a very small minority. The likelihood is just higher than with women because hormones create an impulse, whereas female hormones encourage the opposite. Both are capable of violence but one needs more push to go through with it than the other. It's not fair but like all male traits it sacrifices his own well being for the benefit of the clan.
