Why is domestic violence against men generally considered ok ? But against women OMG !?
December 312009
I beleive it IS a hidden plague within society, women who beleive its ok to attack a man on the basis as its safe to do so because his a man he cant hit you back !
On a radio programme last night some Doctor a Phd said the incidence was often hidden but just as prevalent. Yet the Government fund the Anti Violence against womens adds with $M’s every year. In Australia they constantly run the "Violence against Women ! Australia says NO" campaigns yet laugh at a man who reports an attack to Police !
Why do women beleive that because their the overly emotional physically weaker sex that gives them the right to attack a man without fear of reprisal ? I’ve heard stories about women throwing knifes and a hot iron at a man for not getting their own way and wanting to treat a man like a puppet !
Lindsay lowhan, the reason for this may well be that even so called "wussy" men do infact hold back, but really any man can only take so much than the abusive women may end up needing reconstructive surgery from a single retalitory blow ! I’m just trying to raise awareness of this almost suicidal practise some women engage in !
sorry but its not a level playing field and yes I get totally pi*sed of with those ads as they are all one sided … especially when they say its never the females fault … what a load of crap …. and we will never get the same funding or attention to male issues .. simply because we are men … and remember it almost illegal to be a man anymore !!

Usually, men are too embarrassed to report it. It’s generally looked upon as humorous to some to hear about a man getting beaten up by a woman. It is sad, and should definitely be taken more seriously than it is.

Sad but true. Part of the problem is we focus on the gender of the person abused instead of the abuser. It shouldn’t matter if it’s a man or a woman, physical violence is wrong and whomever decides to hit instead of talk deserves punishment, it shouldn’t matter if it’s a woman.
You are right in the fact that a lot of women hit men because they know he won’t hit back and that makes it worse. He has the power to stop you but probably won’t because who will believe that that’s all he was trying to do?

Quit your whining, It was only a few yrs. ago that domestic violence became a big thing.Women got on the band wagon and lobbied to make things better. Usually in the case of domestic violence it is the women that have to leave with the children, and if they were in a really abusive relationship then they usually do not have a means to support themselves and the kid(s) so the gov. had to listen up because there were children at risk. YES> there are women out there who abuse men and they should recieve the same punishment, but it is up to the men to get things rolling, form a group, have meetings, build it and they will come. Women who were getting beaten had to so why should the guys sit back and expect someone else to do it for them.Any organization that helps abused women was probably started by abused women,and do you really expect them to help the guys? Maybe they should man up and help themselves.

I would not want to be in a relationship like that. Domestic violence is wrong , it don’t matter if it’s the man abusing the woman are the woman abusing the man.

As far as I know nobody said that domestic violence against men was okay. Most men are just too proud to admit that it happens. Unless they’re willing to admit that it happens, no one can help them.

It’s not ok for a woman to hit a man. It’s more likely that a woman will be abused than a man and not get out of it, so there’s a lot of campaigning for it. I see nothing wrong with a focus towards women. I do feel for any guys who are abused. It should be taken more seriously.
