[quote=Anonymous]Folks defending OP's plan to out her friend by reversing the gender of the players...i.e. "wouldn't you say something if friend were a man with a violent past??", should remember that the statistics of injury/death to women at the hands of their male partners does not even approach that experienced by men from their female partners. Not to say female on male DV doesn't happen. It does. But at an infinitessimally smaller degree than the reverse. If OP's friend has a history of violence it's possible her fiance may experience that. If the genders are reversed, it's not just possible. It's probable. It's a numbers game, people. Three women are killed every day in the US by a male partner, current or former. That's a 2014 statistic. Comparing male and female patterns of violence isn't just comparing apples to oranges. It's comparing apples to granite. [/quote]
