[QUOTE="Spooky Owl!, post: 240121, member: 57984"] Except for blame. I know this is getting into the crazy-extreme end, but when it's been pointed out that lesbian couples have the highest rates of domestic violence per capita, gay male couples have the least, with straight couples in between, I've heard it said that the cause is that the patriarchy has so damaged and abused women by pitting them against each other that that causes the violence amongst lesbians, and that male-male couples have the least violence because there's no woman present in the relationship to abuse. The instant rationalizations are so cleverly insane that it's almost fun. Strangely, none of that explains why straight couples were less violent than lesbians. That said, I've known some very nice lesbian couples. [/QUOTE]
