I can show you examples from the Illiad of wives abusing their husbands.
Hell half of the old testament men did things to please their wives or those they were courting.

No, women abusing men is nothing new. It's as old as Lilith.

It's just that now that women are slowly (and I will be the first to point out that sexism is bullshit and women should be treated and paid as equals) attaining parity that people are actually NOTICING this.

Kind of sad really.
