Answer by  statistic (12)

It depends on the situation. Most women will either angrily object to being called degraded or they will deny it, making excuses and or claiming that the ones degrading them are just teasing them. Most don't want to be labeled as "degraded."

Most degraded women cope simply by trying to fade into the woodwork. They hide from the oncoming verbal abuse by staying quiet and attempting to not be noticed.

Women in abusive relationships where they are being degraded and put down on a regular basis often cope by raltionalizing the behavior of the abuser. For example, the woman may say the abuser is having a bad day, or blame themselves for the other persons behavior. The woman may also rationalize by saying the person is not always like that.

Women who allow themselves to be degraded think they are being helped or feel they deserve it. Thats why they almost never leave their abuser.
