That is nuts.
In the interests of equality between the sexes I must agree to this wider definition of violence. Restricting the definition of violence to only acts of physical aggression means that men are unfairly overrepresented in violence stats. Saying things to intentionally cause mental harm, well that's a category that women dominate.
