"Yep. I said it."

"Why is talking about domestic violence so important? It's important because even though women are the victims, domestic violence carries this terrible stigma even in 2021."

"It's important because abusers are often publicly great guys."

"The victim's family loves them and they will often defend the abuser, leaving the victim without a support system."

"The victim becomes the bad guy who wants to break up the family."

"This series is important because abusers themselves and many other people do not understand how terrorizing verbal and mental abuse is – the constant promise of change, the apologies."

Fans on Twitter have expressed similar sentiments, with one user declaring that Maid is among the most impactful shows they've watched.

"Maid is one of the most powerful shows I've seen in a really long time," a commenter stated.

"My favorite thing about Maid on Netflix is Alex wasn't even physically abused," another one wrote.

"It was emotional abuse."

"But it's proof that physical abuse isn't the only abuse in relationships and emotional abuse is just as serious and leaving is always okay."
