Um, wow. You know what? I have absolutely no desire to argue the point with someone who already seems completely set against any argument I may have. I claim the violence between women and men is equal, and should you actually be interested it looking at evidence I refer you to the following: Magdol et al 'Dunedin Cohort Study' Capaldi, Kim, Shortt 'Oregon Youth Study (OYS)' Archer '' Archer Meta-Analytic Study' as well as Rethinking Domestic Violence by D.Dutton. I had a bit of a preview of your argument last night with Helene (at least the ideological framework for it) and it's certainly a waste of my time (as well as yours) to have any meaningful argument with someone whose basic beliefs about how to reach truth are so different from my own. If you believe that behavioural science is an ideology and is hopelessly biased from the beginning, then of course you will be conveniently able to dismiss anything it contributes. Sorry for the hijack of your entry Helene. I am finished.
