NO ONE deserves a smack around the chops. If I run into a woman who thinks I deserve a slap in the chops and tries to apply that logic to me, there will be h&#@ to pay.
Ouch that is very harsh, I do not believe that anyone deserves abuse. Don't go away mad just go away is my thought.
I don't think we'll ever know how many men or women get away with domestic violence. All we can do is try to help those in those situations, teach people that violence is never the answer, and help people to recognize that nobody deserves to be treated that way.

Very true. If someone is upset and worked up why not get a punching bag, or do something physically active like going to the batting cages? Something to help that does not involve hitting another person?
Yep, Women commit half of all domestic violence cases. But seeing as how if a man reports his wife hitting him. he's mocked, made fun of and emasculated. Therefore I would say women commit more due to their jealous and envious nature.
1 month ago, my ex girlfriend started by throwing her soda all over me, while I was trying to help her out with a ride. After I told her I wasnt going to help her anymore, she went berserk. I pulled onto the freeway and she first attempted to grab the steering wheel, and pull it towards her side as hard as she could so I would crash into the brush/bushes/ec. I stopped the car on the shoulder of the freeway where she then pulled off the passenger side visor of my car then threw it out of the window. Next was my rearview mirror. She started reaching for my stuff in my center console. When I grabbed her hands to stop her, she bit me as hard as she could on the wrist. When she stopped I let go, and told her repeatedly to get the *$#@ out of my car and of course she refused. I thou8ght she had calmed down enough to at least pull off the freeway so I checked for traffic and put the car in gear. I then had seen her kick my steering column causing my wiperblade switch to go flying across my face. As I watched it she kicked me in the side of the face twice. I then blocked as many as I could with my forearm leaving many and big bruises. When I was able to get off the freeway, she started yelling "help me" out of the window. I then pulled over again, and told her to get out then. I reached across to open the door for her and she started to punch me in the head. I then grabbed her purse, and threw it out of my window. She started yelling for me to get it, yeah &*^^ing right. A passer-by started walking up to my car from in front of us, and asked if we needed help. I told her 2 times to "Call the cops". When I did that, my ex GF then jumped out of my car, and I floored it then second she did. Went straight to the police station and told them what happened.
After 2hrs one of the Sheriffs tells me "Im not taking sides, Im just going by whom I believe to be the aggressor" and handcuffs me. Despite all my defensive wounds, the damage to my car, and the holes in my ex's story, the lady who was walking up to my car says she had seen me hit my ex before I threw her purse out of the window. When it was my ex hitting me. I got labled the "aggressor" which was insanely stupid. My ex, didnt even get arrested. Which was even stupider. The most awesome part, less than 2hrs before this all took place, my ex was released from College Hospital Mental Institution for the 3rd time.She had no wounds on her what-so-ever. Not on her head where she claims to have been hit. I had no markings on my hands, only my wrists and forearms from her bite and kicking me. But the "witness" seen me, despite evidence of it happening, and I get thrown in jail for the first time ever in my life.
Christ. What a horror story. This is terrible. I too had a friend many years ago that was abused by his girlfriend. Hit with objects, punched, etc. He eventually went to the police, and yep, he was the one arrested and charged. That crazy ***** got away with it. Disgusting. I hope yours doesn't. Good luck, you'll need it in our biased legal system.
Not reading through the whole thread, but I have to say just recently I witnessed domestic violence come to a head, & it's been going on against a guy (mid twenties) who is really close to me. So the scene is he has been tip toeing around her, for quite awhile, not to set her off. He wasn't allowed to go out, because that would set her off. (She, however, could & did go out.) He wasn't allowed to have family over very often, because that would create drama-yet she could & did have her family over, often.
I've watched this take it's toll on him; she openly resents it if he is ever happy, & sabotages him at every turn.
He has secretly been trying to deal with her rages, by trying to appease her, & last week it all came out. She physically went after him, with an open fist, out of control. The timing was actually perfect; he has a back injury, & would not be able to defend himself.
Timing was absolutely perfect, though....because what she didn't know, was I was there, at the front door just as she went after him.
That's the first & last time she will ever raise her fist to him, I guarantee it.
Btw, when the cops came, they did not press charges against her, which really pi**ed me off. If the situation was reversed, I'm sure a man would have been taken away in handcuffs. They did escort her out, though.

And yet we wonder why men in the USA don't do much about it to get help and why so many women get away with it.
Whatever the number is, no doubt it is completely outweighed by the amount of men who RICHLY deserve a smack around the chops from their women, and never get one.
And then you and others on here wonder why so many men are misogynistic. Women with your attitude are commonplace; they think anytime a woman lashes out at a man, he must did something to deserve it.
Interesting! So is it alright for a man to smack a woman because she "deserves" it?
What a freaking double standard some of you have!
