Counterpoint: some of us look at the news and don't wonder. We know too well what's going on with men, and wish we could do more to stop it.
Males are much more violent in all ape species. We mitigate this to a huge extent by expectations they won't be & penalties for being so.

But I suspect that when men are abusive, it will always be more violent than women whose abusiveness is often verbal & psychological.
-
Last time I looked up data on this, rates of violent abuse by men were higher but not monolithic, and psychological abuse was about equal.
-
I don't think psychological & verbal abuse is measured. Men don't &can't report every time a woman says something cruel or goes on for hours

I know I saw a reference to a study somewhere. I'll dig. The takeaway was it's about equally perpetrated, and mutual more often than not.
