Abstract or Introduction
This paper provides a different perspective on domestic violence-questioning societies view on perpetrators. To clarify what exactly is meant by domestic violence I will provide you with the definition of the Office for National Statistics for England and Wales, according to which it is “any incident or pattern of incidents of controlling, coercive, threatening behavior, violence or abuse between those aged 16 or over who are, or have been, intimate partners or family members regardless of gender or sexuality. The abuse can encompass, but is not limited to: psychological, physical, sexual, financial, emotional”. In our society this behavior, especially the physical part is automatically thought to be executed by males.
