The narrative is always the same: women must overlook the monstrosity of their mates and search for redeeming qualities. He’s nice to me, even if he’s cruel and sadistic to everyone else. He’s providing a good home, even if he beats me. He has a title/social status even though he’s running us into debt and abusing…
