What is going on here? Men still rule the roost and many women have fought back but people around the world face different issues so it is not always possible.
Battered women often defend their partners when the police come around.

exactly... who is the kettle to call the pot black???
& most battered women defend the man, cause otherwise it is out of the frying pan & into the fire (OOPS... must be getting hungry w/ all this reference to cookware!)... many of these women think they will have a worse life without that man, due to financial reasons stemming from lack of education/children to raise/the fact that a woman still makes about 70 cents to the dollar/etc etc etc/(& oh yeah... there is somewhere a disturbing statistic I read that most women are who are MURDERED by the abuser, are murdered AFTER they leave... not while they are in the relationship)... but hey... WE can walk down the street in a mini skirt!!
ooh one more disturbing statistic that I read (just today) 4-8 PERCENT of pregnant women in AMERICA are abused by their "intimate partners".. that means that for those of you who have children... 1-2 (assuming you have the "small" class size of 25) of your school age children's classmate's moms were abused while pregnant... lovely...
(hey charity... does this post make my butt look fat???
