DOMESTIC violence against men has trebled in the past decade, shocking official figures reveal.
A record 5,640 wives and girlfriends were convicted of assaulting their male partners last year — up from 1,850 in 2007.
One male victim of domestic abuse told The Sun on Sunday that when he was attacked by his girlfriend it was assumed that he was the abuser.
Speaking on the condition of anonymity, he said: “Fairly early on in our relationship I realised my girlfriend had anger management problems and could get violent.
“She told me that she had been physically abused by her father.
“I suggested that she went and got help but she refused to do so.
“She would often punch or slap me if we had simple disagreements and then would apologise and get very upset.
“It all came to a head one night in a bar when we had both had too much to drink.
“We got into an argument as we were leaving and she punched me in the face several times and broke my nose."

I suppose the guys getting beat up by women are metrosexuals and diminutive hillbillies.
