Let’s make one thing clear:Despite feminist revisionist history wife beating was never acceptable and was usually punished severely in the Middle Ages

Here's a little fun fact:

The last case of judicial flogging in the US (that is to say, the last time someone was whipped or caned as a form of legal punishment) was in 1952. Their crime? Wife beating.

Somehow that doesn't quite gel with the narrative that people casually accepted domestic abuse prior to the sexual revolution.

Yup. So far as I've been able to tell, beating your wife has always been highly penilised by Western cultures. Its been seen as a man's duty to defend his family, that includes his wife and children and places the responsibility to ensure their financial security. Never let feminists get an inch on this point.

Thanks can someone add some facts and then post this on more mainstream reddits e.g. unpopular opinions etc. Karen Straughan said sometthin about male victims of domestic violence being shamed and carted around by donkeys.
