The UK Government published figures this week that showed a total of 88,139 women and girls were arrested for violence against the person last year - the equivalent of 241 arrests a day.
It was up from 87,140 in 2006/07 and more than doubled the 37,100 arrested in 1999/00.
The story was covered in The Telegraph. This issue was covered on the site last year(link), and surely with this number of women being arrested for violence some of it will also be happening in the home. If some women get violent after drinking too much, why would this not happen in the home.
The reason for raising it is that any naysayers who say that men cannot be victims or are in such a minority that they are not worth bothering about, are wrong.
