You know it's interesting that I was just talking to this guy about a character he's writing that was sexually molested by her father and is in a current relationship with a man that is similar in personality and is physically and emotionally abusive to her. One of the thing he did was make the character angry and in your face, because of course he'd heard that women that are abused are angry and aggressive. In his story, after years of abuse, a forgotten birthday party makes her angry enough to steal his precious car the next day. She even treats the car like the other woman. You can just imagine how that conversation went.
