Re: Desi larkian need to...
The women who beat up the abusive guy happened in England. As quoted in Alison Wall's Power and Protest in England, 1525 - 1640. Do you see that happening now? Nope, the woman usually goes to the hospital with a broken nose (if she doesn't fix it in her own bathroom) and says she walked into the door (wow, some people are dumb) and the cycle repeats ad nauseum until she grows enough balls to actually get out of the situation.
And education is not enough. Or else abuse against women would be dead.
