In Medieval Germany, they had what was called Marriage Duels, where a husband and wife could physically fight each other.

To make things fair, the husband had to stand in a hole with one hand tied behind his back, holding a sword in his free hand, while the woman hit him with a bag of rocks.

I'm going to bring this up every time someone has a problem with No Fault Divorce.

A medieval drawing of a Marriage Duel. Thr man in a hole up to his waist with a rope around his middle holding his arm down. He is holding a sword. He has a gushing wound on his head.  The woman is about to swing her bag of rocks at him. He has cut her with his sword on the back of her leg.
