Domestic Violence goes both ways
When a woman leaves a marriage because of physical abuse, she is supported by friends, family, and support groups. But, when a man wants to leave a marriage for the same reason, he isn't likely to tell anyone why he really needs to leave. Could it be shame? Pride? Or, would people make a mockery of his situation because he won't raise his hand back to that woman. Are men more concerned as to what others will think of him? Women in domestic violence situations get sympathy. What do men get?
