Explain why women want rights equal to men?

I am shocked that this needs an explanation. Like actually speechless

Stranded,

people are giving you good advice but it is up to you to find the courage to take it....

My husband was abused by his ex wife and I can tell you from his experience, do NOT allow the abuse to go on without a police record. The sad truth is that it is much much harder for men to prove abuse, then it is for women.... which is exactly why you need to have a police record of incidents...

You are lucky if she gets violent and I say that because at least you will have marks on your body to go with your claims.

Psych abuse is much harder to prove but it can be done, there is something called post- traumatic stress disorder and it does apply to dealing with abusive spouses as well. Talk to a good psych.....

My husband made a mistake of never reporting it, he just wanted to get himself and his son out of an abusive situation as soon as possible.... As a result, he got royaly sc***** in the custody agreement and despite her abuse she has daily visitation with the son even though he lives with us.

I am pretty sure that Florida is a "no fault" state, and I know for a fact that my husband's divorce went through without her even showing up in the courtroom.... and there weren't even lawyers involved, he drew up all the paperwork himself.

I understand that you also have the whole deportation issue to consider, but the more important thing is to get out of an abusive relationship as soon as you can with as much proof as you can get about what was done to you...

Do not calculate and plan on sticking it out to make the immigration process "easier", sticking it out might result in her cracking your head open in an act of rage and then whether you are deported or not won't make the slightest bit of difference.

Thank-you everyone for your replies and concerns, they have been very appreciated (apart from one, Consolemaster)

Yes, i am waiting for the next physical attack to call the police, and yes i will have a police report against her. As mentioned in the above posts written, there is also ALOT of psychological abuse aswell, that's an everyday occurance, talking to the lawyer that i have been talking to they have explained that i will need to get an evaluation of the whole experience for it to be documented as evidence.

Consolemaster, what you dont understand that women are just as equal as men are, always has been, but unfortunately its never been allowed. They also have as many rights aswell.

It happens, women do abuse men aswell. Its sad, what i thought at first was something good, within a few months turned absolutley a nightmare.

I have taken the advice of everyone here, and the next incident i will be calling the police and getting a report,and keeping it along with all my other evidence that i have gathered. i thought about it alot over the weekend, and its something that i dont have to stand for and neither should anyone else, whether it is a man or a woman.
