1641 The Massachusetts Bay Colony devised the first domestic abuse laws in favor of women. The Massachusetts Bay Colony consisted of Puritan men.

While, there was a law in favor of women when it came to domestic abuse women were fined and often punished for their share of abuse, such as nagging and verbal abuse.

American women living abroad and this includes Saudi Arabia can cast votes for their favored officials. The U O C A V A allows me to, were I to choose to do so, vote for the next president. If I can prove, which I can, I am an American citizen. http://dhahran.usconsulate.gov/service/other-services/voting-assistance.html

The Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act = The U O C A V A.

Yes. People like me, who have read actual history, and not the contorted revisionist history being taught in agenda-driven courses these days, are aware of this.

"why did feminists do away with one of those laws?"

It's because it helps promote their agenda.

They didn't really undo old laws, they just added new biased laws such as VAWA. Feminists do have the power to change laws. They have a very strong lobby.

No, I wasn't.

As far as I'm aware, domestic abuse was perfectly legal until feminists demanded it be criminalised in the 60s.

Do you have any evidence suggesting that I am wrong?

Since when do feminists have the power to do away with laws? You live in Saudi Arabia - no laws there favour women - you can't even drive or vote there.

If they get rid of the laws then they'll be able to exterminate men.
