Women in young adult relationships (18-28 years old) commit domestic violence 30% more often than men

The study shows that 70% of nonreciprocal domestic violence in young adult relationships is by women and that 50% of all violence is nonreciprocal. They somehow don't make the connection that this means women commit domestic violence 30% more often than men.

(70.5 + 100.5)/(30.5+100.5) = 85/65 ~= 30%

If you take the raw numbers it's actually closer to 34%.

"That almost a quarter of the subjects had engaged in violent relationships may seem high to some people, but 'the rates we found are similar to those of other studies of late adolescents and young adults, a time period when interpersonal-violence rates are at their highest,' Whitaker told Psychiatric News."

Or is it feminism that has caused young women to react in this way?

I think because women know they can get away with it. I had a girlfriend that beat me up and the cops just laughed at me and my black eyes.

Calm down, we all know it's not violence if it's a woman at it. Men are still murderer-rapist-pedophiles.
