Can men get abused by women?
Men can get abused and raped by women. And I'm sick and tired of seeing people not talk enough about this.
Of course we can because we’re human to.
Unfortunately in my life I’ve seen too much abuse, and experience too much of it from all sides. The good that comes of it is that I know how not to treat people. The bad that comes with it is that it took me so many years to not hate, and wish death upon those who hurt me.
Abuse leaves you locked in the time that it happened, and it plays over and over again in the victims head. Almost like being in a perpetual limbo of pain and suffering. Some people can grow past it, and learn to not let it define them, but sadly for most it does All too often.
It’s like a scar left on somebody’s soul one that cannot be seen by others, but also one that doesn’t so easily fade. At least with a cut you can treat it; because it’s right in front of you, but the ones that get left in the heart of those who have been abused linger for years and for many of those victims they never really close or fade. They see that the hardest ones to heal are the ones that cannot be so easily observed the same holds true for the victims of abuse.
For me there are too many overlapping scars, and I’ve had to spend a very long time slowly and meticulously healing each and every single one individually. Still to this day i struggle with them, but I know now in days that I’m at least I’m not alone in my pain, and that I can always try to move forward.
Not only so that way I can put on a happy face for others, but so that way I can actually have an opportunity to find a moment of happiness however brief.
I hope my answer can be of assistance to others who are struggling with the same problems, and for those who are suffering please know that you are not alone.
Abuse can be:
Discriminatory
Psychological
Financial or material
Organisational
Neglect
Self-neglect
Sexual
Modern slavery
Physical
Domestic abuse
With that said wonen and men bith can be abuse by a woman or a guy.
I was (I guess you can say abused)
By a bitchy woman who was a cunt, but it was the 2nd day of dating her, I had no idea she was like that,
She was very bossy, bullying, and demanding... now, if I was a weak sissy boy, I would continue to stay with her and consider myself “abused”
But since I’m not, I called her a bitch n dumped her after day 2, therefore I don’t think it’s possible to be abused, only if you choose to let yourself be abused, or just have absolutely no nuts at all where you’re such a sissy boy that you can’t leave her
I’m not even a brave man, I’m quite cowardly, but even for me it really wasn’t that hard at all to call her a bitch n leave, so I think guys who allow a woman to abuse him... must be the biggest most cowardly wimps ever, and therefore they deserve to be abused for having absolutely no balls whatsoever
Those guys are basically choosing to be abused in my opinion,
It’s like staying in a house fire and saying “the fire was too scary, I was too scary to run out”
Then blaming the fire for burning you,
Like no... you should blame yourself for not running out of the fire, something that really wasn’t that scary or difficult to do you sissy boy, you deserved to be burned
Same with a abused man
Yes men can get abused in relationships.
My cousin, we think he is being abused in his marriage but no one knows what to do. It is not physical abuse and we have never seen them fight, so it is abuse or just not a happy marriage?
From the outside they have it all, a decent house, no kids, and he has a good job. She cannot work due to work visa issues and but she has a PhD and is very 'smart.' What they fight about we dont know, but we can tell sometimes they 'skip' holidys and sometimes she does not want him to talk to his family about their relationship (so he does it on the car rides to work).
What to do? Its not like they are young and in their 20s, they are in their 50s now, no kids, and sort of set in their ways. We have offered advice and help but he would never leave her. He prides himself on being 'a loyal man' and givijg what he can, where he can.
I actually think abuse is highly underrated in relationships where men are the victims. People think abuse is mainly physical or mental where women call them names, directly hurt them, manipulate them etc. But there are small things that happen in society today that are normalized and should be considered abuse on an equal level. For example simping. I know it's the man who acts out the simping, but women take a lot of advantage of men nowadays by devaluing them, telling them they are never going to be superior etc. Lots of men are simps today because of abusive women and their behavior. Women take advantage of this every day, and more men are being stepped on by society.
So yes, of course men can be abused by women.
@Grubhub It's men in general.
@ragequeen Preach it.
@ragequeen thanks for your excellent insight above. But just about that word “simp”.
No man born with testicles wants to be ever be called or known as a “simp”. Yes some are more passive than others. But the many men don’t speak up about (real) abuse out of FEAR of looking like a “simp”.
Just saying be careful with your wording. You do mean well but just saying.
@ragequeen you scratched the surface of a great point. these days society as a whole abuses men wholesale often under the guise of equality by naming any and every thing masculine and villifying it.

Men can and do get abused by women, it's just that saying as much, especially on popular platforms directly contradicts many powerful narratives. Feminism, which honestly has lots of platforms, so how extreme or what they want can often be confusing. Every other interest group that relies on feminism and racial activism as a linchpin, including lgb, and honestly I forget all the other letters, I just know there are a lot now that lesbians, gays and bisexuals do have equal parity with straight partnerships.
Also to people who will publish this breaking news... guys don't tend to read tabloids so much. I've never seen a man pick up US weekly, or anything like that from the check-out counter. Granted I've never been a cashier, so my observations are pathetic in comparison, but why report man abused by wife, if your costumers will not enjoy, or buy that content?
Like aside from all the political and social reasons why women can do a lot of things men can't, abuse, murder, larceny and rape off the top of my head, supply and demand mitigates the damage they take from any of those actions as well.
Yes! They can clearly be abused by women
I think the issue is that groups in "power" (or at least perceived to be in power) often have their issues ignored
Be it white people, be it cisgendered straight people, be it men...
If those groups have issues
they are never taken seriously
While issues (and even non issues..) of other groups are taken seriously.
and they are often given the benefit of the doubt in things they claim to be issues (even if they are not)...
its a silly double standard
but we see it in the political realm... in media (be it entertainment or news).. and in general social interactions
Well statistically men are MORE likely to be abused in a relationship then women are (male violence tends to be directed outside of the home (which is why most mass shooters are male, most assaults and murders are commited by men and why despite their hatred of their mothers (the usual motivating factor (due to sever abuse) serial killers kill women they don't know), for women the violence is directed AT the family/home (hence why female serial killers kill husbands and children or those they are in charge of taking care of (like angels of death (killer nurses) and black widows etc.), are more likely to abuse their children and statistically more likely to abuse their spouses (70% of non reciprocal violence is perpetrated by women against men)) but are rarely responsible for crimes outside of the home).
So yes men can be and are victims of abuse by women.
Do you have any sources for this?
@Submissivenerd Of course or I wouldn't have said it. The real question is would you accept the sources? So far every one who asks this question has never accepted the sources and the evidence.

I’m happy to accept them, thank you
@Submissivenerd Your welcome
At the same time, this evidence seems to mostly be based around the prevalence of sexual crimes, and the proportion of victims that were abused by either a male or female partner. What I haven’t seen so far, looking at your links, is something that compares the raw number of cases involved. The CDC report states “About 1 in 4 women (24.3%) and 1 in 7 men (13.8%) have experienced severe physical violence by an intimate partner (e. g., hit with a fist or something hard, beaten, slammed against something) at some point in their lifetime.” For me, this goes against your first sentence as it still appears that women are more likely to be abused than me while in a relationship.
(This refers to physical abuse which I think is the topic of this question - but there are a lot of other interesting conclusions in these reports that definitely show women can be perpetrators too, especially of sexual crimes)
Note, instead of me* this should read men.
@Submissivenerd Its been awhile since I've read them but it does show men are more likely to be abused (I believe 5 million to 4. something million for women). However statistically lesbian couples are more likely to commit domestic violence so that is also something to factor in. In addition the CDC has also stated that only 1% of men are raped, yet when you actually look at the data men are as likely if we count "forced to penetrate"(which the CDC labeled as "sexual assault") i. e. when a woman rapes a man.
In addition the harvard study also verifies the data of the CDC/NCVS. As stated its been years since I've read these reports so I can't really get into specifics without rereading all of them.
Men absolutely can be raped and abused by women. Men can abuse women. Men can abuse men and women can abuse women. Same goes for rape. Gender plays zero role in what is truly considered rape and abuse. People have deluded themselves thinking that men can't be victims due to them being forced to be strong and emotionally cut off. This is so backwards, men feel just as much as women do and shouldn't be shamed to express emotions. It's disgusting that people actually believe that you can't rape a man if the aggressor is a woman. Men can be victims. We need more awareness spread about this as it's completely wrong and sexist to even think such things.
Is not that they can’t be abused. Is that Nobody cares. So many people get upset seeing something unfair but won’t do anything about it. So many people will actually commit the same hypocrisy they condemn afterwards. People want take real action into the unfairness hits them directly. Women will not defend men and when they call it out nobody will listen or take real action.
The truth about this world is your problems are not mine. People are horrible, bad, terrible creatures and your better off not being involved with them. But as were social creatures that’s not an option so... in the spirit of fairness. Do not take it. Be a man and when she talks down to you you walk out. When she hits you you show her your a man and put her on the ground. And when she treats you like your less than her you walk away completely. You get respect by not letting people walk on you and people don’t give kindness to people they don’t respect man or woman.
Men can definitely be abused by women, and in many different ways! But don't forget that men abuse men all the time too. I'm not the kind of person who'd say that women have it harder because I know that both sexes have their own difficulties; and while I'm bold and sassy I try to respect everyone. No matter who it happens to or who is doing it- abuse is wrong, and I will always stand by that opinion no matter what.
Something you might want to think about. When the statistics are tallied. Lesbian couples report twice as much domestic violence as Hetro couples, and 4 times as much when compared to gay couples. So yeah abuse happens, both genders are capable, but women who perpetrate it are often ignored. In hetro couples 53% women are the victim 47% men are the victim. But in essence i agree with you, abuse sucks, its not a gendered issue. and i wish we could find a way to stop it.
True, true. I just brought it up because the question is about whether men get abused by women, and I was just pointing out that it's not only women who abuse men, but that men do it to the people of their own genders too. And I wasn't trying to be bad by any means, in fact at the end I emphasized on how abuse is wrong no matter who it's done by and who the victim is. I'm sorry if this offended you, that was not my intent in any way.
I dont think men can be abused in the way that men abuse women. I dont think that johnny depp actually gave a fuck about amber hitting him a few times or whatever. But he needs that to win his case.
I think men can and are a lot of times abused the same way amber heard abused johnny. Manipulation, lies, playing the victim. And i think thats by far the most frequent abuse performed by women and it almost always goes unnnoticed. Why? Well like i said, its manipulative and silent. And women are supported by society and the government in these cases. They are trusted more than men.
I heard of a case like this from some guy whos new at my workplace. Very classic example of this kind of silent, manipulative abuse. And no one to help him, no one to believe him. He said im like one of the only people he talked to who can really understand what he's going through.
Absolutely, abuse doesn't always have to be physical either. You can abuse someone by putting them into unfair circumstances or just plain taking them for granted or slandering their name. Amber making false claims and almost ruined Johnny's career is also abusive for example.
Im usually not a fan of the idea of letting personal lives affect careers but Hollywood certainly is and I think Amber Heard is doomed. She has way more haters than fans her stans don't outnumber the ones who see the truth and to mke it harder for her Johnny Depp is universally loved, he's practically reaching keanu reves status and is definitely on equal grounds with guys like Brad Pitt and Leo Dicaprio as the guys everyone wants in their movies.
The whole divorce trial and Disney's tyranic behavior towards actors made it so he faded off the map for the last few years but once he wins and it's all over he will use this new found popularity boost to propel himself even farther than before.
There are some very abusive women out there. Even if the man is stronger than her. They most likely have already been emotionally abused so they don't defend themselves when they do get physically abused.
Also there's always that fear if the cops are called she'll lie and they will believe her simply because she's the weaker sex in their eyes.
Yes physically and mentally , long term negative behavior towards a partner can leave it's mark , I have been on the sharp end of both , was slashed with a knife in a sudden , unprovoked attack by an ex , she was my ex straight after the attack , despite bleeding everywhere , disarmed her & shoved her out of my house , told NEVER to contact or go near me again !! Also , a man cannot report such attacks to police , as HE will be arrested & blamed as the aggressor automatically , many bad women fully & ruthlessly exploit this to the max.
Yes, definitely they can abuse verbally (I don't think you need me to help figure that one out) and also physically. Why? Well, You see I've been hit by a woman before and she wasn't any more physically strong than your average female , but she did weight more than me, but also she hit me so hard in the face that I saw stars. I didn't even lay a hand on her she was just mad at me. I wasn't even trying to make her mad, anyways I'm not trying to say I'm a victim I'm just saying woman can hit harder than you would have expected.
Wow what did you do to make her angry like that I'm sorry about that bro here have my like
Absolutely. In the jail I work at, we have more women than men arrested for domestic violence. Granted, domestic violence encompasses more than just SO abuse. It covers ANYONE in the household. Men are actually MORE vulnerable to abuse from women because we are expected to just take it. However, it is MORE brutal typically for a man to abuse a woman. Kinda balances out and is shitty either way.
Yes, they can I was sexually assaulted by someone who I thought was a friend of mine. she kept trying to get me drunk and would get mad when I kept saying no and tried to make it seem like I was the wrong one for not wanting to. When our friends found out, they eventually took her side and slowly start to cut me off. So yeah it happens but will always gon unnoticed or more like women don't care as long as it doesn't happen to women then they are fine with it.
A friend of a friend was raped by two women when he was in his mid teens, early 20s come by and while playing a multi-player game with his girlfriend, my friend and one of their friends, they wondered why the couple didn't make it out last weekend for whatever reason. The girlfriend made a joke that they were up all night while the raped each other. Boy friend without saying a single word logged off and killed himself. The girl friend has since been institutionalized and has been for nearly 10 years now.
If you dont think men can be abused, raped or taken advantage of, I hope you never get the chance to have kids of your own purely out of protection for them. If you have kids and think this way, you're a piece of shit parent who should have no family past those who spawed you onto the earth.
that is a lot an of video about men saying they be abused on TikTok and they don't even like double. my mother doesn't think they get abuse but I know she is the wrong and I know some men that do have a learning disability has been shame by their own learning disabilities and I saw women hit learning disabilities men and I told them not to do that but they refuse so I did tell a teacher. other user think it can't happen you just going to be natural section very soon and will not like if we abuse you wouldn't like. then don't do to men do not matter is mainstream or learning disabilities.
I have a friend whos girlfriend: 1.) Verbally harassed him daily and threatened to end his life 2.) She tripped him on purpose while he had a broken leg and didn't help him get up 3.) She stole money 4.) Threw furniture at him 5.) Dumped a beer on him in public 6.) When he did favors for her like doing the laundry, it was expected and she complained (seriously I saw it) if it wasn't perfect. 7.) Cheated countless times 8.) Is a complete gold digger, it's beyond obvious.
No this is not me saying this and using the friend to replace my experience. This demonic women is real lol!
Not saying your friend deserved this but seriously why didn’t he GTFO away from that after she did this bullshit more then once?
Sure. Most women have a much wider social permission to organise affairs.
If anyone pisses her off, any man gets the abuse - very willingly, very dramatically, very severely and drastically - depending on what she is trying to demonstrate to her village or clan, whatever sorority she secretly she belongs to or hopes to impress.
45% of reported DV victims are men. Keep in mind men are more unlikely to report DV. According to a CDC study. In 70% of reported DV cases , it was the woman who hit first. When a woman hits or abuse a guy , no one cares because he's "big and strong", which is why no one talks about male abuse.
Obviously men can be abused by women. Just because when it's physical men are less likely to be injured doesn't mean it isn't abuse.
I know one girl who is HORRIBLY abusive to her fiance, physically and emotionally. Thing is, her fiance is just as bad to her so it works out.
