Egyptian women ranks first in beating husbands

CAIRO —There seems to be a strong notion in society that men are always abusers and women are always the victim. But the women in Egypt ranks first in abusing and beating their husbands, according to UN crime statistics.

Egypt is followed by the United Kingdom and India. Many men are silently suffering and bullied by their wives and their lives are more miserable.

According to data from the Egyptian Family Court, 66 percent of wives who abuse and beat their husbands apply for divorce in the Family Court.

There is emotional, mental and physical abuse. It is said that the wives not only use their hands in beating their husbands, but also use their implements such as pins, belts, weapons, kitchen tools and shoes, with some even using sleeping pills to be able to beat and burn their husbands.
