What about domestic violence ?
What are the real statistics on domestic violence? What if people have varying factors in their case? How do you get though the crap with out being a "statistic" yourself ? Being a " victim" how do i say what really happened without being in trouble? Ok, he hit and he is bigger and stronger.... But what about my actions? I yelled i hit too! He is a special needs person i have been his his caretaker ...and now he sits in jail.. it got really hard for me and it has come to this ....States are really hard on this stuff....But what about these circumstances??
The first response to my question misunderstood. He is not Retarded. (ps: the term is developmentall disabled) The man in question is not unabled and he is my spouse. I love him and we had a misunderstanding. It ended badly and I do not get paid to care for him. I just do!

Men are just held accountable. Remember in the movie As Good As It Gets? Women lack reason and accountability. For the most part, that's a fact. There's alot of information out there as far as the numbers. Below is a link that might help ya.

The reality is that women don't get punished on par with men when they have committed equal crimes.
Society has managed to steer laws and legislation due to the active portrayal as consummate victims to society's detriment.
Reality is, women are abusers, too... but it's only starting to get the attention it deserves. The media and special interest groups (NOW, radical feminists) have a vested interest in demonizing men (misandry) and making sure things stay that way or, get worse.
Further, it affects men, women, children and families alike. Lots of good info on the subject:

Girl its ok, me and my husband have been through this. I have always loved my husband and when we would fight I would be so broken and sad, but I always wanted to stay by his side because he had good quality's. Your only a victim if you choose to be, people are quick to say call the cops. But I NEVER did. Cause i use to hit him too and I did not consider my self a victim. If you feel like you can overcome this fight/fighting then its not really domestic violence, its just my perspective though

If he's special needs you shouldn't be hitting him. If he is mentally incompetent and you are are his care provider than don't be his care provider if he hits you and bigger than you are. This isn't domestic violence by the way. Because he is mentally retarded he wouldn't be held liable but you would.
