I'm sorry if that has been your experience.

We aren't all like that.

I'm with DC 100% on this issue, sammie.

I have had friends who've suffered ****. One case I dealt with and in the other the local police here operated a very effective zero tolerance system with great victim support.

Good luck.

I am not a **** man, but I can get quite cross with men who hit women.

From my limited knowledge it seems to stem from a personality disorder of one kind or another.

My friend's husband was a drunk who couldn't stop drinking while there was drink in the house & who became **** when it ran out.

My late partner's ex was diagnosed with a personality disorder for which there was no medical treatment & therefore declared there was nothing wrong with him and refused any form of counselling.

As we've all said, not all men are ****. There are still some gentle men arounf.

My ex is a drunk and eventually was **** towards me. I always suspected there was some kind of mental illness behind his behaviour. We all have our quirks but some people very cleverly seem to cover up a drastic personality disorder which unfortunately leaves other people suffering from **** physical and mental abuse.

Yes, unfortunately pal, there are **** women. 

There is generally no sympathy for a man who has been battered by his woman.

Initially my response is to sammie but having read other comments I feel the need to re-inforce Davidcarters experience.

Having attended numerous incidents involving domestic **** the majority of cases have been male oreintated, however, I have also been called to a considerable number of situations where it has been the male partner having been assaulted by the female partner.

Sadly this happens in both sexes.

In saying that I say to the men who hit women, take a good look at yourself in the mirror, do you like what you see?

Probably not as I would like to think you feel guilty after the event.

Get yourself some help it is out there for you ie...anger management etc, and to the ladies well easy for me to say but...report it to the police DVU. And don't put up with it you are not on your own.

Best wishes to you all for 2010 and if you are in this situation I hope you find some means of resolving it, for your own future safety and happiness.

An aquaintance of mine recently had a similar experience. Because the woman was small the Police took her side. He was bleeding on his face and arms but was arrested. While he was in the cell, she cleared his flat out of his possessions including a large sum of money from his business (waiting to be banked) He had no history of **** towards anyone. But neither the Police or his solicitor would do anything about the theft of his possessions.

I'm surprised local fuzz did nothing. In my experience the locals here are strong on zero tolerance of any domestic ****.

There is a unit devoted (and I mean "devoted", and I think those that aren't are at least empathic and may have suffered) solely to combatting domestic ****.

You have obviously had an experience or experiences where you have been mistreated. This is sad and very cowardly of the men involved. It is not true that all men are ****, but what you are or have experienced I think is that the men you find attractive have this trait that for some reason they become **** at some later stage of your reletonship. I think unless or until you change how you see OTHER different men you will continue to experience PATTERN behavioiur in your relationships. There is never a reason for a man to strike out at a woman under any circumstances. Its braver and more courageous to walk away from an argument than to strike a lady. (Thats me thou)

oh willie, you are funny !
i particularly LOVED your  phrase "let the norms spin out good fortune for you" (approx)
It reminded me of : "If you can look into the seeds of time, And say which grain will grow and which will not,
Speak then to me, who neither beg nor fear Your favours nor your hate."
