$10,000,000 for women's court advocacy. $600,000 to help men address their violence. Why can't they remove gender from this.

It’s common for abused women to be as abusive as their abuser and it’s common for children in abused relationships to become future abusers and victims. You can’t solve domestic violence by pinning it exclusively on men so they only thing they seem to be doing is creating government jobs and tax engines in the same manner as man-blaming DV charities is creating executive jobs and revenue engines by damseling women.

How about $10,000,000 for men’s court advocacy and $600,000 to help women address their keeping men’s kids away from them?

Those numbers are always arbitrary. How would you address "men's violence"? It's not like that money is just going to fix any issues especially if it's a glorified ad campaign like the ones from the 90s.

A lot of factors go into this and it's just nonsensical in my opinion.

Because that's not how white knighting/virtue signaling works, that's why.

Tweet with me to seek justice:

Why are male victims of #domesticviolence denied access to court advocacy services? How many children are endangered? Does this violate #civilrights in Family Violence Act? Fix @TurnbullMalcolm @dvrcv @NTVorg @AusFedPolice! #mensrights #genderequity https://imgur.com/xhjZXA1

Is this not an improvment?

At least in the states, I believe, even acknowledgment that there is an issue is still a struggle.

Um... maybe because those men should take responsibility for their crimes and because victims of domestic abuse are usually cut off from financial resources(and are overwhelmingly women).
