25 years after her boyfriend hit her and she went back to him, Megan McArdle is trying to understand why.

Megan McArdle.

She's bringing this up (in her column at WaPo) because of the women who stuck with Eric Schneiderman. It's the old and widespread puzzle. Why do women — even smart, educated, free women — stay with a physically abusive man? If Megan McArdle stayed with a man like that, it seems that anybody would. And if you did, you'd probably be embarrassed to talk about it or still inclined to protect and forgive and excuse what the man did.

We understand why rape victims don’t come forward... But if a man hits a woman, he will not get far arguing that he thought she wanted him to.... And yet, there is shame. As witness the fact that I debated with myself about whether to write this column. In fact, I decided to write this precisely because of my discomfort, to prove that it is absurd....

I’m remembering the man, who was funny and brilliant. And who was, like Schneiderman, a staunch public feminist. There were many reasons I wanted to be with him, and none of them were simple, because neither was he. He was a human being....

Dividing the world into men and monsters makes it harder for women to explain why they sometimes continue contact with their abusers, and therefore harder for those women to speak. When they do speak up, this false division makes it harder to believe them because, after all, that guy doesn’t seem like a monster. And it leaves us flailing when we realize that some man we love or need has, whatever his other virtues, still done something monstrous, and we can’t be with him anymore.

Oddly, she came very close to explaining why we can be with him. He's not a monster. He's a human being. McArdle's funny, brilliant, feminist boyfriend had hit her once and never hit her again, and the hit may have been accidental, as he was was "gesturing wildly" in one of his "frequent, vehement rages."

Now, I think the reason to get away from that guy was that he had "frequent, vehement rages."  The one instance of making physical contact seems much less significant than the pattern of rage and all that it meant about what this person is really like inside. Maybe some day we'll have a #MeToo from the women (and men) who have been dominated and controlled by a man (or woman) full of bottled up and explosive rage.
