Men or women starting the day with bruises should NOT be normal period. Usually, in my country, if we see a woman beat up, I mean witness a woman with bruises, if it's our neighbour and we heard like shouting and fighting and she walks out with bruises, we don't handle it ourselves, we call the police, the police will knock on their door to check if everything is okay, and then later inform a social worker to follow up, who will try to make contact with the woman to help her. Many abused women do not want to report their husbands, because of kids, and I don't know. I mean, there was this case, where a woman was a high flying career woman earning 200k per annum in high management, married to a man lower paid than her, but she still comes to work with bruises, and take her husband's beatings. She's not financially dependent on him but he had a hold over her anyway. She believes that she was the one who angered him and she deserved the beating. I don't know if it's consensual bdsm or what, but social workers pick up on it and see it as domestic abuse after they interviewed her that's why it was a case mentioned in the media, and will try to persuade her to get an restraining order to protect herself. I guess every time if I see a man with bruises, the conclusion is seldom that he got beat up by his wife. It's usually you'd think he got into a brawl with another guy. But every time you see a woman with bruises, you always automatically assume it's a boyfriend or a husband. And majority of the time it is, as females seldom get into physical fights among themselves. Different countries do things differently, but we are a pampered lot, and we do expect the government to take care of even our domestic dispute, even neighbourly dispute, we have special mediation council for it. But the thing is, they are highly paid, our government, so high pay equals higher responsibility towards us. Obama gets paid like only 500k, while our PM gets paid like 3Mil. Obama is underpaid considering he has to take care of so many more people. While our government gets paid so much more just to take care of 6 Mil.
