Relationship abuse is a pattern of abusive used to maintain power and
control over a partner.Abuse can be emotional, financial, sexual or
physical and can include threats, isolation, and intimidation.It’s
nothing new for women to stick to partners who beat them black and blue
on a daily basis.People who have never been abused often wonder why some
girls would not just leave an abusive relationship.
There are many reasons why women stay in abusive relationships.
1. Inferiority Complex: Some women do not know their worth. They are
often insulted and and put down by their partners and before long, they
start to believe they are worthless and begin to believe the abuse is
their fault.
2. Money: Most girls remain with guys who beat them because of the money
involved. Perhaps it’s the man’s income that allows for a certain
lifestyle so the lady might not want to leave, knowing she can’t afford
such luxuries on her own.
3. Good Sex: Despite all the battering they get from their partners,
some women will stay put because they feel they can’t get good sex from
any other person.
4. Too much to lose: Some are forced to stay in abusive relationships
because a lot of things are already invested in the relationship like
marriage, children, property and others. Some women feel their children
are going to suffer if they walk out of the relationship, especially if
the man is the sole provider.
5. Fear: Some men threaten the women to hunt them down if the leave and
so they rather stay stuck. It the woman has been threatened, she may not
feel safe leaving.
6. Embarrassment: Most people remain in abusive relationships because
they can’t face the insults and castigation from their friends and
family. They are even embarrassed to let people know what they are going
through in their relationship.
7. Believe that abuse is normal: Some people grew up in environments
where abuse was common and so to them abuse is a normal thing. They
might not know it is actually unhealthy and not normal for your partner
to beat you.SEE MORE AFTER THE BREAK
8. Love: A woman might not want to quit her relationship with an abusive
partner because she is so in love with him and can’t afford to live
without him. She’d rather die in the relationship than walk out with her
life intact. They keep deceiving themselves that he will change
someday. Being in love can make abusive behavior seem reasonable.
9. Love of Abuse: Some women just love being abused. They love the idea
of their partner beating them which gives them false hope that he loves
them. Some women feel their partners beat them out of the love they have
for them. Some just enjoy other people inflicting pain on them.
10. Cultural/Religious Reasons: A woman’s culture or religion may
influence her to remain in an abusive relationship rather than end for
fear of bringing shame to her family. For example, some religion
condemns divorce so it would be difficult for a woman practicing such a
religion to leave her husband no matter what he does to her.

polygamy men and its male off springs (boys to teenages to men_ are well known to be abusive and what makes it worse is that they cannot see or feel abuse. In other words, they lack the genes of empathy or consider their wives feelings etc.
