MSN: 8 Signs That You're a Dirty Fighter

Article here. Excerpt:

'If so, it's time to dial back your behavior. Why? Well, for starters, a fight with you means a full-volume freak-fest. Sometimes you'll destroy things; other times, you'll fight until you're too exhausted to bark anymore. Not good! "Your flare-ups tend to be so unpredictable, you're virtually begging your partner to bury his own anger," explains Jeff Palitz, a licensed marriage and family therapist. "The more stunts you pull, the more your spouse will pull away and ignore you."

Tame-your-temper tricks:

The key is to delay your explosions. The next time you fight, take a walk, suggests Palitz. Once you've gotten a little more oxygen flow to your brain, you can approach the topic logically (like, Okay, maybe he doesn't want another wife...he just said my closet was messy). Another approach? Try opening up (about your family, your sex life, how you'd like to spend your joint money) when you two are actually getting along, Palitz says. He's much more likely to hear you when you aren't screaming.'

"Sometimes you'll destroy things" - Yes, indeed. If men do that it's an arrestable offense. If women, do it, it's just them "getting angry and a little too worked up."

Well I have to give MSN some credit. I wasn't expecting them to publish an article like this in any case.
