It may sound odd, but in Malaysia organisations are being formed to protect the husbands against the abusive wives. It is called Mafor, or man-aid force, a registered NGO intended to assist men who are being unjustly accused of sexual harassment and the husbands who receive domestic violence.

Malaysian Unmarried Men
The Malaysian population census on 2010 showed that 2.5 millions above the age of 25 were unmarried. They were either never married, divorced or widows.
The statistics show that out of 2.5million, 64.4 were men and 35.6% were women. The average marrying age for men were 28 and for women was 25.
A further survey by the ministry showed that 32% of the respondents were never married, the majority of whom are men (56%) and women (44%).
Among the reasons quoted for not marrying are:
a. They have not met any suitable candidates (19%)
b. Career commitment (13%)
c. Family Commitment (7%)
Currently, there are a number of private agencies that operate the match making companies. The situation for Malaysian are still under control, as the population is still growing, unlike some other nation like Singapore.

way to divorce
I was reading with shock on the incidents and cases that lead the way to divorce.
In the first case, the couple is involved in a divorce proceeding when the husband accused his wife of being a man. Without the details and fact of the case, it does sound odd to me, if you are married to your wife, you would know it straight on the first night whether she is a man or not.
It is certainly odd if you were to marry her in 2009, and 3 years later you have a doubt that she is a man, and want a DNA test to be done to check her gender. The husband is elderly at 60 and the wife is close to 40. It is unknown what had transpired that lead to the accusation. The open accusation had caused misery to the wife, who claimed that it has affected her business.
In another case, the wife can no longer tolerate the abuse. What is surprising is that she had suffered in silence for six years. The beating started as early as one month after the marriage. The cruelty knows no limit. Even when she was bearing the child of the husband, she was beaten and that had cause a number of miscarriage. She had to force herself to make the police reports and her husband had agreed to divorce her.
There two cause are two cruel way to create the need to divorce and in both cases, they were at the expense of the poor ladies.
