Holy crap there's this thing called context. You might want to look at what I'm trying to say rather than just picking one line out.
Whatever you want to call it - damaging violence, fatal violence, more extreme violence, reported violence. Who cares. The point is that violence is not accepted in our society, whether it comes from a man or a woman.
Most stats will say that men commit violence at higher rates - whether that's because anytime a man commits violence, it's far more damaging than when a woman does it, or just other factors, the point is it DOESN'T MATTER. It's ALL WRONG.
Whereas in divorce law, there are women out there that think that they should take the guy for everything that they've got and create lies and deception in order to do that - all the while thinking that what they're doing is RIGHT and in fact, there are a lot of cases where even the courts believe that this is right. I personally believe that this is a far more interesting point of discussion than trying to pull up meaningless stats like 8 men and 12 women were assaulted, when it basically means 20 people were assaulted.
