only emotionally in some rare cases and physically when the man is handicapped. but i dont think females have the abusive attitude in them. females are delicate and sensitive by nature.
Quite frankly I am shocked, dismayed, and puzzled by this statement, and I'm a female (and 59 yrs old). Dang, I work with strong and aggressive women everyday in my profession and personal friendships outside of the workplace. There ARE manipulative, lying, emotionally abusive, AND physically abusive women out there, alot of them. I know them and have witnessed it first hand at get-togethers, in a family setting, in a drug/alcohol environment, in the marketplace, in virtually every setting imaginable.
Jealousy, immaturity, aggressiveness, lying, abuse (emotionally and physically) is not limited to men exclusively by a far cry, and that is well documented and factual by case studies and gathered info from the medical, psychological, and law/legal community. I won't even go into things I've witnessed by interaction and friendship with people of both sexes in my personal/professional life.
I'm not saying Rhi is innocent or guilty, nor could I deduce that is Chris automatically guilty or innocent of anything. It could go either way in this scenario or most other scenarios. It takes 2 to tango, and depending upon other factors like jealousy/drugs/alcohol/insecurity/personality, anything is possible.
Ultimately, I hope that there can be resolution, healing, and that oft overused cliche "growth" from whatever happened between these two.
(and let me tell you, when someone is on steroids intermittently for medical reasons such as asthma, and 2 of my best female friends are amongst these, it ain't pretty. Then there is the obvious hormonal rages readily seen in some menstrual cycles; and the cocaine/meth/crack induced hyper-irritability/aggression in both sexes. It's really just not black or white in any given scenario.)
