    В Средневековье некоторые конфликты между мужем и женой решались судебным поединком.Домашнее насилие — это серьёзная проблема. В Средневековье нашли весьма оригинальный способ решать споры между супругами — не запрещать их, а узаконить. Так, в книге 1467 года дуэлиста Ганса Тальхоффера под названием Fechtbuch («фехтбук», пособие по фехтованию) описываются правила проведения судебных боёв между супругами. Мужчина, сидящий по пояс в земляной яме, был вооружён дубинкой. Его жене выдавали мешок с камнем весом в четыре или пять фунтов (1,5–2 кг). Приёмы были разрешены любые — в том числе удары по голове, удушение, засовывание женщине дубинки между ног и выкручивание члена мужчине (да, мастер Тальхоффер упомянул и такие подробности). Победителя определял судья.
