Will the BBC actually report on the results?

This may be a bit misleading because must men wouldn't speak out if they where abused because they think it makes them look weak so the statistic for men may be higher

It’s half or more domestic abuse in the us is perpetrated by women, when ye take into account men are way less likely to report it

...the BBC’s Here and Now programme commissioned a poll undertaken by MORI, which interviewed a representative quota sample of 1,978 adults. These were the main ﬁndings: One in ﬁve, or 18 per cent, of men have been victims of domestic violence by a wife or female partner, as opposed to 13 per cent of women by a man.

1 in 5 is 20% not 18%, not sure what math they were using.

Is this saying female on male domestic violence is greater than male on female?

Proteus_Marius · 2018-09-03T21:33:40+00:00

With a sample of about 2k, their statistical error will be about +/- 4%.

And do they mean they sampled 1978, or that all 1978 gave inputs to the survey?

BBC

These numbers are 100% edited to make women look less bad.

It's more like 60%.

Society normalizes violence against men, when it's men dying or being hurt it's just considered "normal" and not a big deal.

Take a look at this cover, then imagine, if you will, a piece on abused women with this as the graphic.

Weird, huh?
