Woman abuse is any verbal threat or physical force used to create fear and control what a woman does. With all abuse, the abuser has more power than the victim. The abuser is always the one responsible for his or her behaviour.
Abusers often use alcohol as an excuse.
But the real cause is their need to use violence to control another person. A woman can be abused in different ways. This can include things like giving her too much medication or keeping her confined. Using a weapon or other objects to threaten, hurt or kill her. Threatening to tell friends, family and her employer that she is a lesbian Threatening to commit suicide Threatening to withdraw immigration sponsorship, or have her deported Stalking or harassing her.
