[QUOTE=Ceejache]The vibe I get from these sort of things is that it is acceptable and understandable if a woman attacks a cheating man, but not the other way round. QUOTE]

That's exactly my point Ceejache. No way could a bloke's mag get away with printing an article the condoned a man to mutilate his girlfriend for cheating on him. I was quite disgusted that as a reader I was supposed to think that it was comical or that she was in the right.

The way I see it is that it is just as bad if a woman abuses a man as it is the other way around. I realise that it is more common for a woman to be the victim - but does that mean that the few abused men out there are any less of a victim???
