Men who beat women are cowards, so afraid of failure and what others think of them that they become control freaks. They tend to view any sort of dissention by the woman to be a threat to their manhood, so they start by slapping her around a bit, and eventually move on to serious beatings, some of which can be life threatening, even deadly.
The control also takes the form of isolating the woman from family and friends who might help her, not allowing her access to money, threatening to keep the children from her and many other things. This keeps the woman in the relationship because by this time she feels worthless, frightened, trapped, and certain she can't live without him, even though he beats her.
Sometimes, control really has nothing to do with it, and the men are mentally ill. Other instances involve men who saw their fathers beat their mothers, and that's all they know so the cycle of abuse continues. There are many reasons, but the majority seems to be that the men are insecure, so they become controlling bullies in a misguided attempt at building their own self esteem.

A person is most likely to become abusive if they were brought up into that sort of enviroment. Men aren't the only ones that beat up on their loved ones, wife, or girlfriend. Men get abused too but they are the ones that usually keep quiet about the abuse.

While it may be true that the majority of the violent done to loved one is by men, that is because they are usually physically stronger, and so able to do more damage. But the idea that "most men" are physical abusers is wrong. The abusers are in the minority. Those who are abusers needed to be kept away from society so that they can not continue their abuse.

It sounds like you should change the male people in your life, if you think that most males beat up other people and cause them to go to the Hospital. Men are to be protectors, providers, foundations of family.
Because some people [male as well as female] have missed what the One True God has for them they have deep anger, bitterness, guilt or other turmoil in their life [sin]. Maybe from their pass or the present. Many because of control issues are abusive, mentally or physically. They need help. They need deliverance.
If you are in the mist of beatings, this person does NOT love you. The person does NOT love themselves and therefore can not love anyone! Do not fool yourself that they do, and if this is you go to God, Jesus loves you and can clean your heart of all evil that has over taken your heart [mind]. Stop watching violent things or listening to violent music or games. Stop hanging around with violent people. Seek and ask the Holy Spirit to clean and forgive and the power to say NO. If this is not you, you can still ask God for the other person, we are to pray for our enemies, for those that persecute and disspitefully use us, but we do NOT have to be where they are. God loves you both {-: He does not love what is happening but it is the enemy that has invaded.

First -- Most men DON'T. The ones who do are a minority group of the group of males.
Second -- Why do some women do exactly the same thing? Why did I have to be a friend's escape route from an abusive relationship ... where his girlfriend was the abuser?
It's not a male-female issue. It's a violence issue. End the violence.

Most men? How about some men. If most men beat their loved ones then most men would be in jail and it would be a poon-tang fest. It would be like 20 girls for every guy in town. I'd be willing to service my share. Anyway, most men that do beat their loved ones is because of insecurity and ignorance.

I was physically abused as a kid by both my Dad & older brother. My Dad had been a boxer in the Navy. When he got out, my Mom divorced him. I guess the anger of the divorce & the fact that I look very much like my mom is why he abused me.
My older brother learned 4 martial arts to defend himself against my Dad, but he also used it to abuse me.
As a teenager, I became very abusive to both myself (suicide attempts) & towards animals.
I will never marry again, for fear of doing to my wife what my Dad did to me. I have a VERY explosive temper that rarely gets out of control, but....I know it's there. I can use my tongue as a sword. I do not want to hurt someone I love...so I have chosen to remain single. It's lonely, but safer for anyone I may love.

Most men don't do that. Actually less than you would think. No one needs to be in that sitution. Pray for him but get away from him before he hurts you real bad.
I just noticed are you a guy? If you beat your lady get away from her. Go to a biker bar and tell them what you do so you can have a taste of what it feals like to get beat by someone bigger and badder than you. If you beat your lady I hope you get hurt real bad.

Many factors come into play. Abuse as a child for one. One of the major issues is insecurity. There's also self-esteem, drug abuse, alcohol abuse, and a vast array of mental disorders that go hand in hand with childhood abuse.

I was once in a very abusive relationship..both physically and verbally...this man was a bully and a coward to do the things he did...the reason they do it is because they don't have respect for the woman they love or for anyone else or themselves...they never change these behaviors....and I think they hate themselves too...
There are man out there that don't do these terrible things...just keep looking...I found one!
