		<description>I am a woman who just got arrested for domestic battery trying to protect her 2yr old son and because I did what as a mother comes instinctively and that&#039;s to protect their child, I bit his arm and spent 24 hrs in jail. He had a mark on him and I didn&#039;t! Financially, this has cost over $3000 to hire a lawyer try to get my record clean.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>99.9 percent of violence in the world is down to men, and that&#039;s true in the home as well. Women only fight when they&#039;re desperate and have no other choice. Only aggressive men would like us to believe that women can be just as violent as them, because it&#039;s physically impossible as well as temperamentally disproved.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>

		<description>Interesting...
This is a good question, but I&#039;m sure it will annoy lots of people.

While many have no problems with saying domestic violence is caused by males, to say domestic violence may be caused by females is taboo.

Everyone knows women sometimes initiate violence. But it would be impossible to quantify the degree to which physical violence is initiated by women.

The only thing that is definate is that it takes two to fight. Does it really matter who started it?

What this comes down to is the belief held by some that if a woman hits a man he should never strike her back. I believe that the amount of people who hold this belief is decreasing and that this decrease is due to the community&#039;s desire to achieve a greater degree of equality between the sexes.

For this reason I believe we will see an increase in the amount of women arrested for this type of offence, whether or not they are at fault.&lt;br&gt;&lt;b&gt;References : &lt;/b&gt;&lt;br&gt;</description>
