    Rather than plain mysogyny, men and anti DV movements which men are part of should engage in their conception of pride, seeking help, admitting you can be a victim too and listening to other males victims. And if course when they want it legal action.

    If you wish to solve the issue, that’s the main way to go.

    If you want to promote a conservative backlash about feminism and spread basic misogynistic views, you’re on the right track though.

    I’ve been working with movements and research efforts to make men more aware about reporting victimhood and seeking mental health help for years. I won’t prove it because it would likely make my identity public, which I’m not comfortable doing here. Guess what ? I’m working with more feminist actors than you can imagine in your little echo chamber.

    Also : “immensely under-reported”, if that suits you better. But considering your visible agenda, I doubt it will.

    Who considers female on male abuse funny? I have yet too see any feminist, any worker in a shelter, any of those, find any kind of domestic violence funny.

    I’m not talking about Xitter pen keyboard heroes here. I mean real people.

    Who’s laughing at violence against men?

    Taters, conservatives, and their kind, high representatives of the most toxic masculinity.

    You clearly can’t begin to fathom what’s it’s like for people who experienced violence and domestic violence. I’ve never seen a female survivor not listening to a male survivor. I’ve never seen a left wing feminist working with female survivors not taking a male survivor seriously.

    Actually, from my experience, which, I think, is significant at least in my country and generation, they’re literally the ONLY ONES who take them seriously (except some of their close ones, friends and family, of course - not all will, but some may).

    That’s truly a joke.

    It is my current understanding, from various experiences - and I want to state that I publicly engage with men and women who’ve had violent experiences in various ways on a regular basis - that men are FAR more likely to be supported when facing domestic violence by the left, the very same woke/feminist left.

    The right? They don’t give a flying f*ck. As always. The incels and their variants? They don’t care. They’re in a political crusade against social justice.


  • Al…right. Let’s do a little sanity check and let’s see how up or downvoted is gets.

    1. It is absolutely true that violence against women is structurally endemic in our societies and they represent a large majority of domestic violence
    2. It is also absolutely true that domestic violence against men is clearly under-reported, to an unknown but significant extant
    3. It is absolutely true that abuse is abuse

    Those assertions do not contradict each other.
