Women, as my wife will attest, are creatures who are governed not by logic and reason, but by emotion alone. They are prone to making impulsive and irrational decisions based on those emotions, and often this leads to a heated physical or verbal altercation irregardless of the social setting.
Some women are more reserved and others are more brash in this behavior, but it is my conclusion that they are all unable to control their emotional whims. In other words, they all have a line of emotional outburst that they can cross, but the distance to this line - while short for all of them - is longer for some than others.
My ex-girlfriend who i dated for the later part of 2011 and first part of 2012 was especially prone to fits of emotional outburst.
these emotional outbursts of violence would sometimes be physical, other times mental/emotional - and other times simply a threat of physical violence which would not be acted upon
for example
this woman twice claimed pregnancy, falsely, and later admitted that it was a ploy to gain a foothold in a bad situation or to force my hand at allowing her back into my life
this woman, while i was out of state, once threatened to enter my home with the objective of destroying my personal belongings (specifically ripping up my leather furniture, smashing my big screen TV, beating my computer to pieces, and ultimately burning down the residence) fortunately, i had the locks changed by a friend and this never happened
this woman has on at least 3 occasions taken to hitting herself with an object or her bare hands, then threatening to call the police and tell them that i was the one responsible for the marks on her skin. (i shudder to think of the number of men who are saddled with domestic violence charges - when they have in fact never laid a hand on a woman)
additionally, she would show no shame in having a disagreement in the middle of crowded public settings and on a hand full of occasions left the restaurant table and set off walking down the road, forcing me to climb into my truck to go and try to find her. Mind you, this took place in cities and towns 700+ miles removed from our family and friends.
other examples...
In high school, my sister, who was 15 and had no driver's license, kicked out the windshield of my car because i refused to take her to school an hour early so she could hang out with a boy.
a girl i dated in college had the favored method of approach of throwing a container of fluid, such as a large movie theater soda at her target. Occasionally the target being me, other times it was someone else, ultimately the target got to spend the evening covered in Coca Cola or Tea or some other beverage.
I have known women to punch and kick holes in drywall and hallow core doors, kick cars, key them, rip vinyl decals off cars etc
I knew a man who dated a young lady that during a mild argument she would become so embroiled that she would become enraged to the point that he had to restrain her physically and call her mother or father to beg for help in calming her down or to assist in removing her from his home.
countless times, in public, i have observed women who are at odds over a traffic situation or a parking space etc get into such a heated debate that their disturbance physically stopped people so they could watch the drama unfold.
on one occasion, i knew a young man who's girlfriend took his car during an argument and crashed it into a tree. it was never determined whether this was accidental or was done intentionally. the damage was minor fortunately, but it was damaged nonetheless.
In high school, i had a girlfriend who i had broken up with, who slapped me across the face in the middle of a crowded hallway because i refused to re-enter a relationship with her.
the number of occasions i have witnessed a woman destroying another person's property, slapping or hitting someone else, throwing things at them etc is astonishingly higher than the number of times i have seen a man do those things.
come to think of it... i have never personally seen a man do any of those things to a woman... i have always heard of it second hand.
I will say that there is an enormous double standard in the ways that men and women interact with one another. and im sure there have been a lot of men out there who have been punished by the legal system for domestic violence when no such physical violence ever took place to start with
