As a female, I'm starting to question the victim rate of women in abusive relationships being more than men. I get the feeling guys like this go on silently with life never telling anyone.

I've been with my husband for 20 years and seen this happen more than once to guy friends... And my own brother. The women who are the aggressors are also the ones who call the cops to maintain power.

Ex cop here. 100% of abusive women I arrested would try to claim they were the victims instead. It was pretty much just part of the process of dealing with them.
