  • Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male: She abuses the living crap out of her boyfriend/husband in the "Please Don't Leave Me" video to comedic affect. However, it's clear that she is actually harming him quite a bit, and the humor is more dark comedy rather than "Oh, haha, look at her bossing the big guy around."

I cut this because from what I can tell, it says in the example that it doesn't fit Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male, and the abuse isn't downplayed enough to fit.

I'm wondering if it shouldn't be removed entirely, due to the fact that Pendulum's Video "Crush" is arguably depicts an even worse abuser (including an implication he murdered her), only the abuser is male, and it still saw considerable airplay at the time. And did so only a few months later.
