There are battered men, but only a small percentage of DV victims in male-female relationships are the males.
They also fail to report far more often than women, becoming their own worst enemies. It’s a guy thing.
The disparity of force issues are also at issue making domestic battering a much less serious problem for men.
The most recent CDC data show that 55% of women slaughtered every year in the US are killed by intimate partners.
Nobody should argue against helping a battered husband. But, this horrific problem affects far more women and it’s getting worse.
Bless that moving company. A woman trying to flee an abuser is seven times more likely to be killed than any other time in the relationship.
“A woman trying to flee an abuser is seven times more likely to be killed than any other time in the relationship.”
Especially if her husband feels ‘dishonored’ before Allah.

Actually about half are men. It has been known for about 40 years that women are as likely to abuse men as they other way around. In fact women are more violent than men: http://www.aeesq.com/2017/03/23/women-initiate-domestic-violence/
The first major study of domestic violence in the U.S.A. (about 40 or so years ago) showed women used violence about as often as men. The two male researchers who did the study concluded that that had to be some sort of bizarre statistical error but they couldn’t figure out how it came about. Their assumption was that domestic violence was a male only issue. Their prejudice got in the way. Typical liberals.
Hyperbole much?
? Stats like this make every ex-husband and ex-boyfriend of every woman a prime suspect whenever a woman is murdered.
Makes me want to have a go-pro surgically implanted in one of my eyes so there's never a question of where I've been or who I've been with. (Speaking as a divorce')
