Head butting

Why does a male head butt a female when it is time for lovin? I have a male that is a sadist and likes to do this.
 
There could be an element of domination involved.....but I also wonder about it being intended to stimulate the female too. Male turtles do this a lot and can even kill the female before they get to the mating.
 
Very interesting. I will have to remove the female if he does it more then once or twice. I certainly will keep a watch on them.
