[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You don’t want to call the police but what do you want to do? [b]Are you a man or a woman?[/b] Are there kids involved?[/quote]

Good point, sorry for my heteronormative assumption, OP.[/quote]

What difference does it make if it’s a man or woman?[/quote] 
It affects the level of danger OP is in. If the wife is threatening with a gun, the danger is the same. In a fistfight, the smaller, weaker party is in more danger. That’s just an objective fact that might affect what OP does next.[/quote]

Not all wives are physically smaller and weaker than their DH.[/quote]

Police will also respond differently to this type of complaint from a man versus a woman, which could affect which steps to take next.[/quote]

There’s a lot of factors that will determine how the police respond:
Race of the complainant
Race of the accused
Occupational status of the accused
Socioeconomic class of the couple
Any prior law enforcement contact
Gun ownership by the accused

Gender is just one and sometimes not even the most determinant. My brother serves a lot of warrants.[/quote]
