SUNREADERS, both men and women,
recently shared their tales of abuse.
The violence they described included bitten 4-5s, vandalism and burned clothes.
When most people think of abuse, they assume its men beating women. However, over the weekend, an allegedly abusive wife in Boksburg, Ekurhuleni, shocked the nation when she set her husband’s bakkie alight outside a cop shop.
He had apparently gone to open a case against her.
SunReaders shared their encounters on Facebook.

Manamela said: “I burnt all my ex’s panties.”
Mamello said: “She used to bite me.”
Jones said: “She would inspect the sperm volume in the condom. If it was low, she would scratch my face with her fake nails while screaming and breaking things. I left her.”
Innes said: “My girlfriend broke all the windows of my car and house on Women’s Day last year. Apparently, she had attended a concert and got drunk.”

Masoka said: “My brother suffered for 11 years. He was beaten, insulted, controlled and humiliated. One day he confided, in me and said he still loved her. I was hurt and angry. It got too much, and he almost lost his life, that’s when his eyes were opened. He just walked away.”
Muma Simulunga said: “She bit my balls.”
