You're quite welcome. Its not uncommon to see a person from the
extremely biased-against-all-men DV INdustry decry *facts* that
show that their lies are, well... lies.

Erin Pizzey, as noted in both " Not Guilty; The Case In Defense
Of Men ", David Thomas, and " Heterophobia; Sexual Harrassment
And The Future Of Feminism ", Daphne Patai, found in her
researches ( And, lets recall that she not only wrote the first
book on DV " Scream Softly Or The Neighbours Will Hear ", but
opened London, UK's first shelter for women ), as far ago as
1981, that women on men DV was as common as men on women DV.

So, this notion that two women would be less likely to be
violent was debunked a quarter of a century ago. I guess that
the Bimbos in the Industry are still reading 19th Century
tracts...
