Men are usually stronger than women. This statement is quite true in couple conflicts where in women are more likely to have reports about injuries, and physical aggressions. Because of a higher rate of injuries, women are more often thought to show more fear than men. They are known better to be passive, motherly, and submissive to their husbands.
Can a woman be as violent as a man?
There has been a debate regarding this. Based on statistical datas of different people, some do show the sexual symmetry of (marital) violence. Men are physically stronger thus they cannot be easily injured by their partners. Women have a higher rate of injuries however that does not tell that they would also have a higher intensity of fears. Women are not always submissive. In some cases, they even use knives and forks to threaten their partners. These partners are what we call as "battered husbands". Reports about them tend to be few probably because men do not like others to know that they are being beaten by their wives.
