Is it true that men experience domestic violence as often as women?
Partly. US and UK official statistics report women experiencing domestic and intimate partner violence at substantially higher lifetime rates than men, while one review notes that when abuse is defined broadly to include emotional abuse and any hitting, rates appear relatively even. The evidence covers only specific countries and definitions, not a general equal-rate finding.
