I would like to speak with men who may have had issues of violence or abuse with an adult partner and who sought support.

Kind of a red flag for me.


Around my area,this would mean....."How did you ask for help or deal with your abusive behaviour toward's your intimate partner".

It is for men of most westernized countries under the misandric influence of feminism.

Before men just ignore this appeal because they don't think they have been a victim of domestic violence, take a look at what 'domestic violence' is in the UK.

According to Women's Aid:
What is domestic violence? - Women's Aid

domestic violence is physical, sexual, psychological or financial violence that takes place within an intimate or family-type relationship and that forms a pattern of coercive and controlling behaviour... Domestic violence may include a range of abusive behaviours, not all of which are in themselves inherently 'violent'.

So, domestic violence does not require violence.

According to Refuge:
What is domestic violence? | Refuge

Domestic violence is the abuse of one partner within an intimate or family relationship. It is the repeated, random and habitual use of intimidation to control a partner.

The abuse can be physical, emotional, psychological, financial or sexual. Anyone forced to alter their behaviour because they are frightened of their partner’s reaction is being abused.

So, refusal to have - or not to have - sex can be domestic violence if it caused a change in behaviour.

The public prosecution service states:
http://www.cps.gov.uk/publications/d...encepolicy.pdf

There is no specific statutory offence of domestic violence.
...
The Government definition...:

“any incident of threatening behaviour, violence or abuse [psychological, physical, sexual, financial or emotional] between adults who are or have been intimate partners or family members, regardless of gender or sexuality.”

...
Magistrates’ sentencing guidelines state that an abuse of trust in a domestic setting is an aggravating factor in assaults, and “vulnerable” victims are also an aggravating feature.

So, domestic violence is ANY incident of abuse with someone who is or was in a domestic setting.

For the purposes of housing, the Supreme Court extended domestic violence to include:
Supreme Court extends meaning of domestic violence « UK Human Rights Blog

physical violence, threatening or intimidating behaviour and any other form of abuse which, directly or indirectly, may give rise to the risk of harm.

So, domestic violence can be an indirect intimidation which might lead to violence.

Now then, hands up those men in the UK who have NOT suffered from domestic violence? Anyone?

The statist definitions of DV and the way the state deals with those folk it can convince have suffered DV is all geared towards giving the state control of everyones personal relationships.. That makes it easier for the state to abuse us all and control the kids especially..

Uhmmm.....women's aid?

Will we be told,"it wasn't that bad"?

I'm sorry,but I have seen "help" for men in abusive relationship's in my area. Anger management.

I find it hard to believe this "study" is exactly what it says it is.

Paranoid for a reason.

Man = abuser, women - victim..

In actually fact, there are no winners in either sex when you involve the state in sorting the shit out..

Women often think they have won, then maybe they will see what happens 10 years down the line and think again..

Men often make the mistake of thinking they can be victims too..

Well, yes, but being a victim is not the best place for a man to be..

There's nothing wrong with being a victim.

What is wrong when it becames an ideology of oppression/domination of one group over another.

There are men out there who need shelter, assistance and advice. While I dont count myself as a victim, I went to a mens support group - what I took form that was rather less advice, than seeing that LOADS of other men are in the same situation as myself. So what I was expericing was not an individual thing or psychological event, but a sociological one. It did not take us to figure out the common accusations we faced are mass produced by the Womens Rights Center. Newcomers who came to the Mens Support Group had an "aha" moment after the first meeting and realised how THEY were not at fault, but were being manipulated by men.

Thus we need to think of ourselves less as victims, as protecting ourselves from being manipulated by the bitches into thinking we are bad, at fault, etc.

Face to face meetings are worth a thousand posts!

Thus if people know about men who are abused, enocurage them to takepart in the survey, and this helps recognise that women are as much at fault as men are.

Guys, if you or anyone you know . . . .
If you would like to get more information about the study or if you would like to take part in the study, please contact Cassandra at ptcaj@bristol.ac.uk or call 07741 086 924.

Indiana - Thx for link ( and will let ya's know how "the study" goes ) !

The bigger probem is hat many men are taught that abuse to them is normal and their own fault by society. White Knights are trained to take the bs handed to them. Not only that but what is defined as abuse. Women tend to abuse you psychologically whereas men physically. With much physical abuse you can see it for what it is and often it leaves nothing more than a small emotional scar(not that it doesn't leave mental scars too because it does). Most forms of psychological abuse stay with you and continues to torture you long after you encounter the abuse though.

Even there the line is blurred... Many women consider a phrase like "Cant you be rational" as abuse (gaslighting) however a man will not consider an hour of a woman screaming "You are a worthless piece of x" abuse. In my own life I experienced mostly psychological abuse. Could you really call it abuse though? Yes! It went miles over the blurred line. Being screamed at daily, belittled, and having facts/events/information falsely bent against you, for years, is abuse. While I still haven't fully recovered, I have overcome it. I refuse to be a victim to my past. One the worst aspects of feminism is that it makes women who were a victim to abuse, a perpetual victim. What a sad place to be...

The problem is many men "take it like a man" instead of waking up. Why else do men not support MRA's. Misandry is so rampant in western society it is invisible.

What good is a study if it isn't telling the whole story?

The quest for victim status has what reward exactly for men?

None.

I think it is better for men to realize they are not victim's,instead they should think of themself as "sucker's".

This doesn't mean a "sucker" doesn't need a safe place to go with his kid's and get away from that shit.



Maybe I should not have said "none".

Acknowledgement of male victim's would strip females of the exclusive title of "victim" and would forward our cause.

Male victims are acknowledged and known to exist. It is called marraige, a relationship, etc..

I remember a story in the local rag many years ago..

A young lad I knew back then (he was 15) killed his mother, and his father also was party to this killing.

She was a school teacher, and notoriously abusive to them both..

I dont think these two male victims got the sort of pass that would have likely been granted to "female victims" who kill their abuser.. Indeed, they were both jailed..

But the newspaper printed the story of what the woman was like, as in, very abusive to her husband and son..

It is very hard to know what can be done to help "male victims"..

Few of them want to leave their kids behind, and would they want to have the mother arrested and then have the problem of having to raise the kids etc?

Women need to be put firmly in their place of course, and if the man of the house cannot do this, then who can?

The more the public are made aware that women abuse men - the more attitudes will change and women will no longer be seen as always innocent and the man always guilty.

You are probably right that abuse against males is called marraige, relationships etc. But even one night stands have their own risks of the male being absued!

FB, can you tone it down a tad pls..
