Domestic Violence in China

[edit]

This topic struck me mainly because of how undeveloped the Wikipedia article is. Domestic violence has been commonly shown in Chinese dramas (at least the ones my parents watch), and I find it hard to believe that it is an extremely rare phenomenon in Chinese families. Moreover, I feel that domestic violence is a very "accessible" feminist subject for Chinese people, so the fact that even domestic violence is not properly written on is worrying to me. Domestic violence is a large issue in Asia as a whole, and the fact that this stub is one of the first articles to appear when one googles "Domestic Violence Asia" makes me particularly interested in expanding on this article.
