It depends where you live. I live in Canada and volunteer for the Abused Women's Centre. There are far more women abused than men, but, there are men also that are abused. Men are more often unwilling to come forward on abuse issues directed at them because they fear no one will believe them, well here it is as clear as can be: If a man is brought up by his parents that it's not alright to hit a woman, and he marries a woman who can be on the violent side, then even if she strikes him or throws herself at him in fight, he will back off. I have seen men who have been physically bruised, broken bones and teeth missing not to mention black eyes. Is he chicken? Not at all. He only did one wrong thing ... get out! I am happy to say that there are groups for battered men as well as battered women. Still, women take the worst of it all and there are by far more abused women and children out there. Statistics change drastically from day to day.

Is abused women okay to use for a professional knowledge paper?
* Absolutely! You cannot get anything better than someone who has gone through the hell of physical, verbal abuse (or both.) If you are writing a paper on a woman you must ask her permission first and get a signed statement from her. It would be to your best interest to sit down with her to learn how abused women got where they are and how they plan to cope with it .. stay or leave the abusive relationship. It is also important that you realize if you do not get permission from this abused woman (a victim) you could cause her much pain and perhaps put her life in danger if she is still with her abuser. Be sure to get your statistics correct on abused women and also mention the names of programs abused women can go for help and the phone numbers.
What is the number of women who are helped by domestic shelters?
There are no national statistics concerning the exact number of battered and abused women living or have lived in DV shelters, as such information is kept strictly confidential except for those authorized with the "need to know". Some estimates place the count at 300-500,000 yearly. The ABA Commission on Domestic Violence with the aid of FBI statistics place the yearly figure of women who are abused by a spouse or intimate partner at 2-4 million; the reason for the large discrepancy is most incidents go unreported. The 2-million represents the number of documented cases where the woman received medical care or evaluation. Needless to say millions of women and children and a small percentage of men are aided by shelters and organizations throughout the world, not just in the U.S. In the U.S., immigrant women are in the highest group of victim's (a more preferable term survivor's) of domestic violence.
