15. I think in terms of getting accurate information, if it's not being reported, that's gonna confuse

the issue.

I do think that, over the years, Law Enforcement and society in general has become more fluid in understanding of relationships and partner dynamics, both in healthy and not healthy relationships. Domestic Violence in lesbian relationships, for one- which was not acknowledged for a long time, but is now recognized as a potential issue in the community...

again, my bottom line is violence is never acceptable.
