So since women also often abuse men, even if we assume for the sake of argument that it is less often, shouldn't they also have to pay a tax, perhaps prorated for the frequency. I mean, if it is only a difference of degree, why is there accountability on only one side, rather than accountability for both, rationed according to number of incidents or something like that?

From Swedish Tax Brochure:

"A third aspect is fairness. Most people think resources should be distributed more evenly than would result from a private market alone. This is why taxes are used to redistribute resources. Redistribution occurs directly by means of transfers such as child allowances and social welfare allowances and indirectly in that, for example, everyone can attend school without paying any fees."

Income redistribution for fairness. How very John Kerry.

STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - A group of Swedish parliamentarians proposed levying a "man tax" to cover the social cost of violence against women.

This is why transsexualism is so popular in Sweden.
