Word: Men and women who kill their partners

May be an image of text that says '"The average prison sentence of men who kill their women partners is 2 to 6 years. Women who kill their male partners are are sentenced on average to 15 years. This is despite the fact that 86% of female offenders kill in self-defense, while males are most likely to kill out of possessiveness (82%), abuse (75%) and during arguments (63%). Women are eight times more likely than men to be killed by an intimate partner." -Fact Sheet on Battered Women in Prison (no stats given for GQ and trans* people). (via sonnywortzik)'
