About 10 years ago I was friends with a couple across the street. I had heard from an unreliable source(!) that the woman used to beat up on the man & this turned out to be true.

I know from direct experience in one case...it's disgusting the degree to which men engage in such behavior, but the degree of violence by women is indeed infrequently considered, or when done so, treated as somehow sexy.
