    It's about time someone FINALLY said it....

    ...and the NOW (National Organization of Women) gals are going to have a hissy-fit over this one;

    USA Today

    WASHINGTON — It is not just men who hit women. Women hit men, too. And the latest research shows that ignoring the role women play in domestic violence does both women and men a disservice.

      What TP said. There are a few shelters for beaten men here, though, just like those for women.

        It's the same way over here too.

        Women abusing men is not uncommon over here either, in fact it happens quite a lot! Even I was in an abusive relationship, she never hit me though, came close once. You kinda don't quite realise what's going on until you hear about it from your friends. ( I was too in love with her, I would have taken quite the beating I was so much in love, crazyness)

        That's why a guy should never give up his friends for a lady!

          If she were a lady, the relationship would not have been abusive Never trust a woman though

              I'm just glad I didn't ditch my friends for her, although it came REALLY close. If that would have happened I would have never forgiven myself. My friends rock, they knew I was going to snap out it eventually.

              She controlled me for a good part of the relationship, she knew I was madly in love with her, too bad she never felt the same way, things would have probably been different.

              Women are evil.

                Yes, they are. And they are masters at controlling men. Not that is it that hard.
