And whats with all of this "because she burned the dinner" comment. Is this adult behaviour?

Strange Famous,

I think you are simply not succeeding in putting yourself in their place. There is not always any real physical violence taking place, and when it is the case, it's almost always 1-sided, no hitting the man in the face because he just hit you.
And yes, there are cases of men that are literally physically suffering. You don't need to be strong to cause damage, that's what we invented tools for unfortunately.


Mind you, I'm not saying that it's necessarily bad that you can't put yourself in their place.


And yes, the comments are to be expected from self-appointed bad boys. It's always the case in a group of people that somebody will use sarcasm or irony to take a bit of the edge off of touchy subjects, don't let it bother you.
