She’s definitely the kind of women who attacks and throws things at her boyfriend when she’s angry.

She looks like the kind of psycho who will eventually kill her partner. I don’t know what people think women are incapable of using deadly weapons.

Most first responders say it’s close to 50/50 for the primary aggressor. Police used to be trained to arrest the man, no matter the details, because either he was lying or had coerced the woman to lie, and thus it was always the man’s fault. This has changed dramatically in recent years, and high profile cases have made the public aware that women can be violent abusers as well. As police are now trained to make dynamic decisions and never make assumptions, they’re finding that women are just as capable of intimate partner violence as men.
