Women tend to recall their &lt;span class="pt-basics-link"&gt;dreams&lt;/span&gt; more often than men and women tend to report more frequent and more intense &lt;span class="pt-basics-link"&gt;nightmares&lt;/span&gt; than men. Men dream more often about other men rather than women,  whereas women dream equally often about men and women. For example 67%  of characters in men’s dreams are other men whereas 48% of characters in  women’s dreams are other women.  Men tend to dream about aggressive  encounters with other men (typically strangers) while women tend to  dream about interactions with familiar others that take place in  familiar surroundings.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ladies, a few statistics for you…&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Every 9 seconds in the US a woman is assaulted or beaten.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Around  the world, at least one in every three women has been beaten, coerced  into sex or otherwise abused during her lifetime. Most often, the abuser  is a member of her own family.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Domestic violence is the leading cause of injury to women—more than car accidents, muggings, and rapes combined.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Studies suggest that up to 10 million children witness some form of domestic violence annually.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Nearly  1 in 5 teenage girls who have been in a relationship said a boyfriend  threatened violence or self-harm if presented with a breakup.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Everyday in the US, more than three women are murdered by their husbands or boyfriends.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Ninety-two percent of women surveyed listed reducing domestic violence and sexual assault as their top concern.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Domestic  violence victims lose nearly 8 million days of paid work per year in  the US alone—the equivalent of 32,000 full-time jobs.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Based  on reports from 10 countries, between 55 percent and 95 percent of  women who had been physically abused by their partners had never  contacted non-governmental organizations, shelters, or the police for  help.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;The costs of intimate partner violence in the US  alone exceed $5.8 billion per year: $4.1 billion are for direct medical  and health care services, while productivity losses account for nearly  $1.8 billion.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Men who as children witnessed their  parents’ domestic violence were twice as likely to abuse their own wives  than sons of nonviolent parents.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;(&lt;a href="http://domesticviolencestatistics.org/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://domesticviolencestatistics.org/" target="_blank"&gt;http://domesticviolencestatistics.org/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/p&gt;
