I am 71 and have never hit a woman - however I will admit there have been a couple who I felt like hitting :-( |

Hitting a man or women is not right, domestic violence effects 1 in 4, |

It is definately not black and white or easy to walk away indeed. I was in a very violent relationship for 13 years so I do know. I will not go into details but I finally walked out and have never looked back. |

Without going into too much detail, when some people begin to slap it progresses to maiming someone or even manslaughter. |

I realise it is not that easy Stray......That drama shows how hard it is to get way.....for myself though......The first signs of aggression .....even a raised voice....and I am off. |

There have been suggestions that are far more male victims of domestic violence than have been reported to the authorities. They are ashamed to admit that they aren't 'Manly' enough to protect themselves. |

Women in violent relationships have often been mentally broken first. Their self esteem is low and they just don't have the energy to get out. |

My son was married to a Narsasistic women with a volatile aggressive personality. She verbally attacked him and eventually started to physically abuse him, (several times in front of her parents) My son never lifted his hand towards her, but thank God he divorced her. I knew nothing of this until he walked out on her. He is now happily married. |

Paula, I agree .. it's not always the man that shows aggression. |

I think this is what happened to the woman in the drama Island......she kept trying to get out.....knew she should, did at one time but was mentally and physically exhausted...... |

Well, I have been very fisty in the past, I can't deny it, especially when I had had a few. |

Difficult from the outset as the natural reaction is to say NO Way. I personally have slapped another female and a male a reaction to them laying hands on me. |

Uzzi as you say it's never easy, I am just so thankful my son ( and everyone else too) managed to walk way. |
