The gender biased language in this article affected me more than it should have. I hope one day to exist as a male survivor of spousal abuse.

'Academics say that changing the attitudes of men is important in tackling violence against women and that abuse should not be seen as a private matter. Rather, abusers need to be told calmly that it is not all right.'

Stopped reading after it said men are abusers.

And from then the abuse started, both physical and emotional. ''Mentally, I didn't feel like I could live. I felt trapped. He told me 100 times a day that I was pathetic, ugly, worthless and that I was an insult to be around,'' she says. ''You start to believe that.''

and that's why they tell men 100 times a day that they're violent, ugly, perverted, stupid monsters.

Hello,

To be honest I made this account so I could comment on this post: I am heart broken over what you went through. I am heart broken by what the lady in the article went through. My prayers go out to you both.

Sincerely, K
