JJL had a good point in an interview she did about the character. It's not misogynistic- in fact, the exact opposite. She's treated no different than the men. Even from the start, she's being brought in to hang just like any man. She's not roughed up any differently than what a man would get, and her being called a Bitch isn't any different from all the nasty shit she calls everyone else.
She's treated like a wanted criminal and is being taken to answer to justice and the hangman. At no point is she threatened by rape or sexual violence, but simply treated as the depraved criminal she is.
The character relishes being tough and even comments after the first time she gets popped in the carriage by asking if that was all the hardest he could hit and insinuating she wasn't fazed by it and could take a lot worse.
If you really look at the character and how willfully defiant she is in the film this is not a case of a man or men subjugating a woman or condoning "domestic violence". Any argument otherwise is a misplayed feminist card and takes very little time to break down the situation and appreciate the situation. Not every violent encounter between the sexes is a Ray Rice incident.
