Domestic violence

[The Voice]

With all this recent hysteria creating a narrative that all men must share responsibility for a tiny minority of scumbags, this video presents the real data and obvious conclusions.

I have seen this before, it seems every few years there is another " subject" that has to be hit on by the media etc. I don't condone any domestic violence but am tired of being categorized as a toxic, violent, misogynistic male.

Yes, like most destructive behaviours it's a 0.05 % of men engaging in DV that's the problem. TBH I don't think the media portrays this as an all male problem. I think 99.95% of men would want to help avoid more DV deaths. Who better than men to see the warning signs from mates? We as a gender are simply a part of the solution, I don't think all men are being vilified for the behaviours of a few.

Isn't it interesting when a mother kills her children (yes it happens frequently) it is described by all as "sad" and "a mental illness issue". It doesn't get included in official DV statistics. Anything to do with men is simply violence, and all men are to blame.

It doesn't fit a desired narrative by some quarters that we have a mental health epidemic in our society. It is more convenient to say that extreme terrible acts by tiny minorities is clearly obvious by certain genders.

Isn't it interesting no one blames the perpetrators' mothers. Aren't they part of the solution? Why do they ignore the warning signs? Why don't they speak up?
