Musings on beating up women

I was watching the tvseries continuum, quite nice scifi-series that successfully navigates the shores of scifi.
It tended to stay away from most of the bad stuff that tends be in scifi movies/series.

So why muse on beting up women?

Well in one scene, the main character Cameron gets in a fight, gets beaten about, thrown through a window, choked. Her colleague got beaten quite heavily and was knocked cold.
While the male character ended up with sevrere bruises cuts and an arm in a sling, the woman only had a shallow cut on his cheek.

And this is sort of prevalent in movies. Never mess up a womans makeup.

I bet people can come up with a bunch of examples of movies out there.

Anyhow what I'm saying is, please dear moviemakers, show the signs of fighting on womens faces, and not just a token scratch. It breaks the suspension of disbelief.
