Domestic violence doesn't only happen to women. It happened to the guy I was dating. The PTSD and trauma and anxiety it caused broke us up. I can't work with him on it, but I can work separately.
Here is a short video on the subject by a group called DAVIA:

And here is a letter to the editor that I wrote on the subject:

Statistics show that women hit, slap, kick, throw things, etc., and that men rarely report it. It's a problem worldwide, and it's not only men who do it.

I think not only men can use violence,but also women can use violence against someone.I watched a domestic video that 6girls assaulted one poor girl,those girls are so cruel and heartless.ppl need get sth against violence.

@jefferson126 I don't think they're as much minority as people think.

It is something men probably really find it hard to talk about.

@dawnald .......Many men have to keep up this manly veneer.

It seldom gets reported when a male celebrity gets beat up by a female since the male guy will be seen as weak getting beat up a female.

In many cultures, unfortunately, it is taught that physical violence is the first and often only answer and that it is right. Unfortunately men are often seen as weak when they report this sort of thing or use at as grounds to end a relationship. I was involved with two divorce cases where both the lawyer and the advocate told the husbands outright to not even mention spousal abuse.

It probably would have been turned around on them.
