I guess you're right and I'm wrong. My apologies.

(edit: Perhaps I was confused by this quote:

> "In the early 1800s most legal systems implicitly accepted wife-beating as a husband’s right, part of his entitlement"

> https://www.britannica.com/topic/domestic-violence)

I took that to include English Common law (the article I quoted doesn't make that clear.) Bully to the English for always providing legal protection to their women!
