Given that we men can be accused of violence for merely swearing, why is it that so many of the ‘experts’ refuse to acknowledge the non-physical, but equally damaging violence in which so many women indulge.

When it comes to the application of manipulative, emotional violence, women lead the numbers by a country mile. But because the bruises are not readily observable, they are either ignored or refuted by authority.

In other words, what so many men do with their fists, so many women do with their tongues.

Is not false allegation, especially of sexual improprietry, one of the most violent acts on record? Unlike a punch on the nose, the results of such false allegations stick to the accused for life.

Is not having such false allegations promoted in court, resulting in an innocent male being separated from his innocent children, an act of intense violence?

Is not a woman falsely accusing a partner of violence and having the partner removed from his own home, and then having the new boyfriend confront the removed partner, incredibly violent?

Is not a woman informing a man’s employer, his sports club, his friends, etc, that she has a protection order against him, when such order is based on a fiction, an intensely violent act?

Is not a woman constantly denigrating her partner’s work, sexual, and other performance levels, intensely violent?

Is not a woman who constantly needles a man, putting down his friends, suggesting he might be having an affair when no basis for such a charge exists, intensely violent?

Is not a woman who has an affair with another man acting in an intensely destructive (therefore violent) manner?

Is not a woman who witholds reasonable sexual contact acting in an emotional destructive fashion?

And then, such woman threatens her partner with dire consequences (of the false-allegation variety) should he choose to find greener fields. Is she not acting in an appallingly violent manner?

And none of the above includes the many women who are also physically violent.
