Were women abused in medieval Europe?

Some medieval women were abused, and some were not. Medieval times were no different than other times and places. In some places the laws did not protect women well, but there were a lot of places where there were specific laws to protect women from abusive husbands and other family members. Also, nearly everywhere in Christian Europe, any women could get protection in the sanctuary of a convent. As to why women were abused in Medieval Europe, the reasons have not changed. This is a complicated question dealt with by people ranging from sociologists to psychologists.

What is her response to his threats of physical abuse?

Every woman is different and some women are terrified of the mate she is with and because the physical abuser is a master of taking the woman's self confidence away and having her believe she is useless in every aspect of her life or perhaps threatens her into believing he will take her life if she leaves him she feels trapped and does not know where to turn. Women of abuse who are afraid are not under privileged women; uneducated or weak and some women that are abused are high profile women in the public's eye or very well educated women so the myth that uneducated or poverty stricken women are the individuals that are more likely to be abused is a myth. Some women will continue to stay with their abusive partner while others will seek help to get away from him. There are other women that will fight back as best they can, but since a man is more powerful this often leads to dire straits for the woman and is risky business. There are Abused Women's Programs that victims of abuse can go too and they should plan well before going to see the counselor at an Abused Women's Facility because they cannot go back to their abuser or they will be in worse trouble. The Abused Women's Facilities protect the women and any children they may have; they will take them to a 'safe house' for protection; have the woman go to programs to learn about abusive men and how to cope on her own; they provide legal counsel in court and help find the abused individual a job. One only has to call Mental Health in their area and they will direct them to an Abused Women's Facility.
