>The largest study ever done on domestic violence, involving detailed
>interviews with 23,000 victims revealed that in 70% of the cases, the
>woman instigated the violence. Typically she would keep escalating until
>the man responded, at which point the police would be called and the man
>arrested - about 98% of the time back then (this was three or four years
>ago, as i recall).
