It makes sense. One, abuse fukks up a person beyond the physical. And if you deal with it long enough (domestic, child, sexual, etc.) eventually you numb to it and it just becomes normalized.
Two, if you choose to be with someone who turns out to be somebody who is generous with the hands, yeah it's embarrassing. In a roundabout way it's a self-admission of defeat. You're admitting you chose poorly. You're admitting your judgement and ability to discern was all the way off. Your common sense was sacrificed because you were either manipulated, dikkmatized or emotionally compromised in some fashion.
That women's intuition shyt? You basically admit it failed you, OR that it gave you the signs but you ignored it. Not to mention that abuse in general is a painful, scarring thing that places people in the most vulnerable of situations and sometimes results in people trivializing the trauma they've gone through.
So I can see why women would feel embarrassed to come forward. Women may have a problem with accountability but let's not act like abuse is something people earn. That's not how it works.
You earn getting handed whatever is given to you by a partner you don't vet well enough. I know that doesn't sit well with a lot of people becuase it feels bad but that's reality.
