I was once working a hotline where a woman called, screaming for help. Turns out she had her husband trapped between the fridge and the counter and was beating him a skillet. She literally couldn't stop. Took three police officers to pull her off.

One of the major differences, though, is that the woman rarely can inflict the type of damage a man can. Most just don't have the upper body strength. Another difference is that most men are too ashamed to admit "the little woman" is beating up on them.

Physical abuse is wrong. When people quit thinking that getting physical is okay in any form, wars might just become a thing of the past. I can dream, right?
