If a person is beating her wife should i stop him and call the police?

Yes, if your wife abuses you, you should absolutely call the police! If women want to be considered equal, we should be held just as responsible for our actions as men are! There is NO ACCEPTABLE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE and if you get a hard time from the police (whom you should call tomorrow morning at the non-emergency number) TALK TO ANOTHER POLICE OFFICER. This is especially important if you have children, because ANY violence in the home (aside from the very occasional spanking, which may be necessary, if that's how you choose to handle something) can be very detrimental to their development in numerous ways. Please, report this to the cops! It is SO important that men aren't too proud to report their wives, it is every bit as wrong as a man beating up his wife! I totally agree with the above poster. I volunteer at an Abused Women's Center and found out that many men are also abused and usually too embarrassed to tell a friend (men have been deemed as the stronger sex so others feel abuse to a man is impossible) but, they forget that good men are brought up not to hit women. Some women simply take advantage of this. You don't deserve this treatment. My girlfriend's son is married to a woman that punched him in the face one night when he was sleeping and when he got up to go to the washroom to see what the heck hit him, she nailed him right behind the legs with a Golf club and he hit the floor like a ton of bricks! As soon as he could gather his wits he phoned the police and had her taken away in handcuffs. She spent the night cooling off her heels in a cell. He took his time going in the next day to pick her up. Although they still get into arguments she has never once hit him since because he told her the next time he would press charges. If you are going to take the advice of calling the police and have children, then please take the children to your parent's house, a friends or a neighbors before calling the police because this isn't something children should see. Good luck
