Because someone asked what I personally would prefer. I answered. You don't
have to abide by that, it's just my preference having seen too much of this
stuff. If I'd seen a lot of the other side, I might have said otherwise...but
I haven't. All the DV I've seen has been against women, and that's where my
emotions take me, and my answer.
