This is a seriously undertold story, and this website is a good place to learn the truth about the staggering number of male victims of domestic abuse in Australia:
Men are MUCH less likely (three times less likely it seems) to report being battered and attacked by their female partners than women who are attacked by men, and further, men have less support if they do speak out.
Men may face scorn, derision and disbelief when they report being abused.
If one considers the vastly lower reporting of these incidents by men, and combines this with the higher number of women who abuse children, it arises that women - not men - are the majority domestic abusers in Australia, Great Britain and the United States.
Time to start spreading this truth, and working for change on BOTH sides of the gender equation.
Solved! Go to Solution.

In many cases Barri, they are actually blamed for the violence perpetrated against them. They said something nasty to their husband, so they deserve to be beaten. They slap their husband after he makes abusive comments to them, and then their husband deservedly, cold-cocks them.

You mean he just called her "that woman" in front of her? Or he called her by another woman's name, either way, wow.

Or they are not believed because the perpetrator is a police officer.
Or they are not believed because he is a "street angel, home devil".

From YOUR very first post in this thread, you stated:
If one considers the vastly lower reporting of these incidents by men, and combines this with the higher number of women who abuse children, it arises that women - not men - are the majority domestic abusers in Australia, Great Britain and the United States.
So, since you discussed women abusing children, it stands to reason, that the thread is about abuse, not just males being the victims of domestic abuse...hence comments about male or female abusers are on topic.

The OP lost the debate over a week ago......... other posters managed to provide the correct data though.
