why not?
is the "experience" trump card just for race issues?
or is there something about my life experiences that precludes me from offering the trump in this instance?

experience matters. However...
There are things that people have trouble understanding without being a part of them. Suicide in the family. Child abuse especially sexual. racial issues when they are about how a person's life is affected.
Hitting a woman (or a man) doesn't fall into this I don't think. Your argument may be illustrative but it's just taking it to the reductio ad absurdum (sp?) level.
Your experience with crim justice in this case is quite useful & you have insights to the punishment that most of us do not.
