For 6 years, I have avoided publishing any articles on physical abuse because the reporting can be salacious.
However, physical abuse is a health issue, a real health issue for a lot of humans. Physical abuse includes slapping another adult, hitting a child with a strap, using a child for sexual relief, assaulting a woman to humiliate, unnecessary surgery by trained or untrained health professionals. Physical abuse by its nature is a fight of the stronger against the weaker, and hence men against women; young adults against old adults; adults against children. Or young children and women with guns and weapons against men, children, women.
