In fact, for many women in abusive relationships, the violence doesn't become overt until they try to leave. And the fact is, battered women are most likely to be killed after they leave. So it's often not a matter of women being irrationally afraid of their partner -- it's a matter of them quite rationally judging how much danger she'd be in if she tried to leave.Clarisse Thornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07552173777924239357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19346366.post-29794854431970623922011-03-30T04:46:34.440-04:002011-03-30T04:46:34.440-04:00I guess they have less need for them now that viol...I guess they have less need for them now that violent and property crime has been way down for 20 years.<br /><br />We should see something similar for prostitutes during the mid-'30s through the late '50s, as compared to those from the Jazz Age.agnostichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12967177967469961883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19346366.post-22318672053431491562011-03-29T23:13:13.471-04:002011-03-29T23:13:13.471-04:00I read recently that relatively few hookers still ...I read recently that relatively few hookers still have pimps these days.

A good friend's mother was beat by her husband from time to time. I watched her work up to it one time. She repeatedly verbally attacked him and then would back off for a bit if he raised his hand. He finally left left the living room and 2 minutes later she followed him to him to his man cave to attack him further. She got knocked down for her trouble, but make no mistake she was the one pushing to get beat.<br /><br />For years I thought what he did was horrible why excusing her behavior but talking to my friends this was an often repeated procedure. She would verbally rip him a new asshole until he would strike her. Hard to feel sorry for someone when they seem to want to repeat the same pattern.Grimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08216378792974323131noreply@blogger.com
