True and when Caroline Flack hit a sleeping man over the head with an object he was ridiculed for being weak and the papers made out it wasn't abuse because he was taller
. No wonder most men never report it. The abuser who married into my family finally hit my relative last year, she had gone through stages of stopping him working, breaking his phone, hiding his car keys, destroying his clothes, so I knew it was escalating. Of course he didn't report any of it because who would believe him? He did leave but she has had no consequences and still manipulates him.
