i totally agree with you, however, rephrasing your last sentence would have been more just to society. "No woman should be abused by any man physically or mentally." this could have been very fairly written as "Nobody should be abused by anybody else physically or mentally". That's why its called equality!

Some men are very accustomed to treating their women as second class citizens. I hope Portugal women watch out for this guy and I honestly hope that the courts will make Mr Ani pay for this ex girlfriend pain and suffering . Men who abuse women are cowards. No woman should be abused by any man physically or mentally.
