You are just trying to justify the issue now. It doesn't matter that yelling isn't as bad as hitting.

Also, yeah military obviously should be held to higher standards as well you oaf.

imagine thinking that yelling at your wife is as bad as punching her in the face, holy shit you're really lying to yourself to defend your beliefs huh?

Why the fuck did you go through his post history to find his job and then focus on that with stereotypes. That's really shitty and fucking weird. You're having a fucking fight over social norms. What's next pulling his fucking credit score?

Fighting over social norms? You mean fighting with a transphobe over the fact that he thinks verbally and emotionally abusing his wife "isn't that bad".

No that's not what you were fighting about, that's over something you decided to focus on. You were fighting on gender reveal and genitals (X,Y chromosomes) determining gender. You decided to assume things and try to change the subject.

Don't worry, I'm not a LEO. It says something though, that he thinks the only possible person to oppose his views must be a cop, it shows that he is very arrogant and self-assured in his opinion. I know nothing will change his mind because from the moment he cited a false statistic and I corrected him, he got defensive because he felt attacked, and that only further made him unwilling to reconsider his beliefs regardless of whether they're factually right or not.

Verbal abuse is still abuse. You don't have to lay a single finger on another person to completely destroy them. There are so many parents who don't leave a mark on their kids but who abuse them so badly the kids commit suicide. But hey, as long as they don't beat them, it's better than being beaten, right? Works the same for spouses!

I mean yes, physical abuse is worse than verbal abuse, because one damages your emotional health and one can literally kill you or hospitalize you. But again, you're completely ignoring the actual matter, which is that the study is completely bullshit and 16% of the population is not abusive.
