It's dangerous to go alone - take this.

Its more often that the woman is the aggressor.

You can get the CDC data on frequency to that effect in /r/mensrightslinks

This website lists dozens upon dozens of studies

Yes.

A meta study: "REFERENCES EXAMINING ASSAULTS BY WOMEN ON THEIR SPOUSES OR MALE PARTNERS: AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY "

This bibliography examines 286 scholarly investigations: 221 empirical studies and 65 reviews and/or analyses, which demonstrate that women are as physically aggressive, or more aggressive, than men in their relationships with their spouses or male partners. The aggregate sample size in the reviewed studies exceeds 371,600.

CDC Study, 2007:

"Almost 24% of all relationships had some violence, and half (49.7%) of those were reciprocally violent. In nonreciprocally violent relationships, women were the perpetrators in more than 70% of the cases. Reciprocity was associated with more frequent violence among women (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]=2.3; 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.9, 2.8), but not men (AOR=1.26; 95% CI=0.9, 1.7). Regarding injury, men were more likely to inflict injury than were women (AOR=1.3; 95% CI=1.1, 1.5), and reciprocal intimate partner violence was associated with greater injury than was nonreciprocal intimate partner violence regardless of the gender of the perpetrator (AOR=4.4; 95% CI=3.6, 5.5)."

Oregon Youth study:

"As in many studies of IPV, the OYS found that much IPV is bidirectional (meaning both are violent), and in unidirectional abusive relationships, the women were more likely to be abusive than the men."

I was reading something interesting about Domestic Violence in the Stats Canada site.

http://www.statcan.gc.ca/pub/85-224-x/2010000/ct001-eng.htm

I found it quite interesting that in 2009 Canada, the numbers look just about equal. Except in Newfoundland/PEI, in which no man was ever the victim... I feel that may be a statistically anomaly, or evidence of a stigma or pride in Eastern Canadian men to not report their victimization. But that could also just be conjecture.

Edit: Or if I read the bottom, they messed up.

On the sidebar of this board is Summary of studies on Domestic Violence lots of stuff there.

7 out of 10 fights I've been in with women have been the direct result of female aggression.

1 fight out of 10, I was being the asshole. 1 fight out of 10, I was legitimately pissed at her. 1 fight out of 10, she was legitimately pissed at me.

The remaining 7 out of 10 fights have all been the direct result of female antagonism. She just wouldn't let something go, she was over-the-top rude, she picked a fight where there didn't need to be one, she bugged out on me and later blamed "hormones," etc.

That's my personal experience, not a reliable statistic.

Have you tried reading r/MensRightsLinks?

Only academic papers and such get posted there. What more reliable do you want?
