Factor: education-difference between spouses

I read an abstract once of a study saying women with higher education married to men with lower education than them had higher risk of being abused. Does anyone happen to have the citation of this? (I know the reverse seems to be the case in Bangladesh^[1], so presumably there's some confounding factor here.)

Ah, now I found it. Martin (2007)^[2] , cites Johnson (2003)^[3] as saying that "women with higher education were at greater risk of being physically and sexually assaulted by their partners", although other studies have also shown that unemployed women are at higher risk of marital rape, not sure how to interpret all this. (Martin 2007 seems to be a very good review.)

Messy and contradictory

This page is all over the place. In some places, there are statistics that show women are victims more than men. In other places there are statistics that show it's equal. It can't be both, yet the article has no problem arguing both and referencing both claims without attempting to reconcile them. We need editors to critically evaluate the references being used by both sets of claims and to examine the overall consensus in the literature (eg. if 90% of papers on a subject favour one view, more weight should be given to that view). I don't have the topic knowledge, and a lot of the people who have knowledge on this topic have heavy POV bias one way or the other as it is an understandably sensitive subject. What we need is to step back from opinions and agendas, systematically make the article more consistent and coherent, and reduce the emphasis given to minority opinions that are not substantiated by the literature. (I am making no claims about which sets of opinions are which.) 203.217.150.69 (talk) 01:54, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well the POV and experts needed banners are in place at the start of the article, all we need now are some experts (like many other Wiki articles). At least the diverging opinions in this article probably do reflect real diverse opinions and i suspect the experts dont entirely agree with each other either. As i mentioned before, IMHO the usage of the phrase "domestic violence" tends to lead to distortion and propogate POV opinions. There needs to be a Controversies or Criticism section where the differences are thrashed out.--Penbat (talk) 12:04, 16 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Women are more often perpetrators of domestic violence. But feminists don't want you to hear that and wikipedia is not good at stopping censorship by majority groups such as feminists and misandrists.Jayhammers (talk) 02:29, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Showing feminism's true colors

Removing verified statistics showing women commit domestic violence more often than men while retaining the information claiming men commit murder more often remain. This article is supposed to be about domestic violence, isn't it? Then why are the statistics of domestic violence displayed for the public? Why is the truth suppressed? Jayhammers (talk) 02:35, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Updated truths

Updates some truths about domestic violence - that women commit it 33% more often and that women initiate domestic violence at least as often as men (probably more). Watch as the feminist misandrist man-haters remove the truths in hatred of men.Jayhammers (talk) 02:45, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
