He became a feminist though. So in the end it wasn't all better.

What kind of feminist? The crazy kind or the kind who wants equality?

The kind that is misguided, and goes around implying that only women are the victims of domestic violence, and that all violence only against women must be stopped, and so forth. He's not man hating, per se, but he is very misinformed or disingenuous in his execution.

There's nothing wrong with feminists? It's just the retarded people who want female supremacy that make them look bad.

what pisses me off is instead of calling themselves 'equalists' they use 'feminist' which implies that they're seeking rights for women but no one else.

The truth is that domestic violence and violence against women touch many of us. This violence is not a private matter. Behind closed doors it is shielded and hidden and it only intensifies. It is protected by silence – everyone's silence. Violence against women is learned. Each of us must examine - and change - the ways in which our own behavior might contribute to, enable, ignore or excuse all such forms of violence. I promise to do so, and to invite other men and allies to do the same.

Thats a quote by him. He drank the kool-aid a bit hard on that one, what with 44% of all domestic violence being female on male, and 56% of single target domestic violence being female on male. But of course, domestic violence in it's entirety isn't the issue, only the violence against women is.

If domestic violence is done in silence, how could we have accurate numbers on whom or by whom it takes place?

Because that assertion is wrong, and it is not as silent as you are being led to believe.

How do you know? How could you possibly know whether or not it was silent? If it is in fact silent, that very nature would keep you from knowing.
