Bullshit.  I've been a cop and a bail bondsman, and everybody beats the shit out of one another, regardless of gender or sexual orientation.

Bullshit right back at you.  Men are violent at a rate well in excess of women.  Now men will easily assault other men as they assault women, but we don't get all that many women in for offences of violence.

Lesbians beat the shit out of their women as much as men beat their shit out of women.

Like you've even met a lesbian up there at Fort Sedgwick.

A quick google search turns up some interesting research in this area.

For those wishing to follow up here is an abstract from one study that provides a decent starting point.

QuoteWithin the study of intimate partner violence (IPV), controversy exists over whether perpetration and victimization of domestic violence is gender specific (gendered). Some researchers maintain no or few gender differences in IPV offending and victimization, particularly at less severe levels. Others argue that IPV is highly gendered and perpetrated largely by men against their female partners and expartners. Using officially collected data (through pretrial services and police reports) in a large Midwestern city, this study examined 2,670 IPV cases of which 14% had female defendants. This study was an effort to further clarify the debate regarding gender differences and similarities in reports of perpetration, victimization, context, and consequences of IPV. The two political and research perspectives that guide this debate, the family violence and feminist perspectives, are also discussed.
