domestic violence against men

I am currently studying community welfare and began the subject Domestic Family Violence. Although many men do experience abuse from their partners, this is not recognized in my course.
When I asked the teacher about it, she reported to me that men being abused by women would and should be treated differently and receive less support. Its been a long hard battle for females to gain rights so we should be treated better than males?
I don't think this is the "equality" I visioned as a female.
Anyone else find it not quite right?
Shouldn't violence (especially in a family) and abuse against ANYONE be wrong?

This is an old thread but in response to the OP, I suspect most males who have been the subject of domestic violence from a female don't report it, and don't tend to speak of it.
I personally was the subject of domestic violence from my ex girlfriend, and it has ruined me in so many ways. I'd give absolutely anything to be the person I used to be before I met her again.
