From 2010 to 2012, scholars of domestic violence from the U.S., Canada and the U.K. assembled The Partner Abuse State of Knowledge, a research database covering 1700 peer-reviewed studies, the largest of its kind. Among its findings:[62]

More women (23%) than men (19.3%) have been assaulted at least once in their lifetime.
Rates of female-perpetrated violence are higher than male-perpetrated (28.3% vs. 21.6%).
Male and female IPV are perpetrated from similar motives.

Some sources state that gay and lesbian couples experience domestic violence at the same frequency as heterosexual couples,[6] while other sources state domestic violence among gay, lesbian, and bisexual individuals might be higher than that among heterosexual individuals, that gay, lesbian, and bisexual individuals are less likely to report domestic violence that has occurred in their intimate relationships than heterosexual couples are, or that lesbian couples experience domestic violence less than heterosexual couples do.
