Narcissism in men, violence towards women.

Recent Yahoo feature on Narcissistic Men Typically Direct Their Rage at Straight Women.

Narcissism has been on the rise over all in society.

From Yahoo...

Men who scored the highest on the narcissism test were more likely to view women as conniving gold diggers, as teases who tempt men with sex and don't deliver, or as seductresses with plans to trick men and "get them under their thumb," Keiller said. "Narcissistic men hold overtly hostile, adversarial ideas about women," Keiller said. While narcissistic men also showed rancor toward gay men, their hostility toward them was no worse than that of other straight men. About the only group that escaped narcissistic men's anger were lesbians, possibly because straight men tend to eroticize them, Keiller said.
