Americans Abroad

The only obvious domestic violence I witnessed in China was my downstairs neighbors, an American man married to a Chinese women who he used to have screaming matches with, beat and call a "cunt" at 3am to the point where the police had to be repeatedly called. They were eventually thrown out of the building as a result of my (Chinese) neighbors complaining about them.

I also saw two men beating the shit out of each other with badminton rackets in a parking lot but I'm not sure that qualifies as domestic violence.

What I did notice in China was that it was much more acceptable for men and women to just be friends. In the US, a man who hung around with women all the time would be assumed to be gay, whereas in China there seemed to be less macho bullshit peer pressure. Might be a generational thing, but all the young Chinese guys I knew were less openly misogynistic than their US equivalents in the wake of gangsta rap, The Man Show, video games glamorizing pimps, etc.
