That's a huge assumption, imo.
How so? Do you think that more than 25% of men have lied to their wives? Or at the very least after adding the common liars to the clear abusers, do you think that number is greater than > 25%? If you answer yes to either of those, then logically it can't be just basic lying that constitutes abuse.

I don't know exactly what it is exactly, but I think it's safe to say that a lie like occasionally telling your wife you're at work when you actually went to get a beer with your friends is not considered abuse.

I believe cops abusing is higher than the average. She should have done an accurate study and presented a reasonable finding, instead of looking like an idiot.
I would like to see the breakdown of the data by type. I just don't think simple lying qualifies for abuse. Regardless, I'm skeptical of the exact figures until I see more information.

1 in 4 women are in a relationship where the man beats them?

Am I misunderstanding something?


If you're educated with a stable job and in a stable relationship that probably means you don't typically hang out with the types that dominate domestic abuse statistics.

Does she look like an idiot?

or does all the wingnuts that have bought her books, and paid for her training seminars look like the idiots?

Women that are dumb enough to marry cops probably deserve it more.

I honestly don't know anyone that raises a hand to their wife. I also don't know many men that put up with a mouthy woman, but that's another topic.

I think a man that hits a woman is a weak sonvabitch.

Me either. That's my point. The 1 out of 4 statistic doesn't hold true across the entire socioeconomic spectrum.
