What I think you mean is that there is a taboo on men being hit my women, which is true.

In reality, 90% of domestic violence is done by men, so all the media attention goes towards men beating up women, which, ofcourse, is illegal and punishable. Women beating up men doesn't happen as often, but is just as illegal and punishable. However, since it doesn't happen as much, and men are generally considered to be physically stronger then women, most men who are getting beat up by a woman are ashamed of it and will not admit it. Therefore, women beating up men is a taboo: nobody talks about it.

That's still entirely different from what you said though, there are virtually no women who actually believe it's accepted to physically abuse men. Mental abuse however...
