Actually, my first thought was "Awesome, I can have a Roller Derby skin now!"
I'm currently sporting quite a few bruises that were inflicted by other women in the sport.
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but having been a victim of horrific domestic abuse, shame on anyone who tells me that a bruise on a virtual woman advocates abuse.
I refuse to see pain and heartache in benign things - that gives power to the abuser.
I will, instead, empower myself by associating those bruises scrapes and cuts, with a Halloween costume, or an all women's sport like Roller Derby.

It's usually boiled down to Eros and Agape - outlined and debated quite nicely in the book "Time Enough for Love" by Robert A. Heinlein.
Heinlein also outlines in that same book, a model that is used today for plural marriage, and polyamorous relationships. (As well as many of his other novels)
Eros being more physical, and Agape being more mental.
