A Step Towards Equality?
A women who abused her husband has been sentenced to 4 years imprisonment - https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11798583/Prison-reform-boss-grins-jailed-20-year-campaign-abuse-against-husband.html Considering the level of abuse, she was let off quite lighty but at least it's a step in the right direction.
It's notable that the sentencing judge was a women. Some commentators suggest that was why she got such a light sentence but, from what I've seen in other cases, a male judge would probably have been even more lenient.
It's about time the police and courts starting treating female on male domestic abuse seriously. All too often male victims are fobbed off with "It's not a police matter, Sir."
