If there weren't degrees, all metred sentences would be the same. Your feigned ignorance belies the fact everybody know this.

The point is about equality and now people want to start introducing caveats to that equality.

You certainly have a point here, but this story isn't the one to make it in IMO. Spousal abuse by either partner is not treated the same and that is wrong. I fully agree with you here

And I'm not playing the strawman game, if you want to talk about hypotheticals then take a creative writing class.
