The Australian Beaureu of Statistics Shows That Domestic Abuse Is Not Gendered

And a lot of those men never sought support because of the assumption that men can't be domestically abused. They call the hotlines and the hotlines immediately jump to a line of questioning that assumes that they are the abuser.

Meanwhile, Australian feminists are doing everything they can to prevent people from seeing a movie where a very influential feminist says that domistic violence is just "wife-beating" and where the woman who founded the world's first DV shelter says that feminists turned on her once she started helping male victims of DV too.

And in Australian schools, the Feminist model of DV (i.e. the root cause of DV is "disrespect towards women" so in order to stop DV men must be ruthlessly trained into deferential white-knights who pedastalize women) is now being taught.

Statistics are one thing, but politicians care more about showing off how much they care about women.

Australia is absurdly chivalrous.

A lot of Australians seem fucked in the head about this, and will make all sorts of excuses for female perpetrators of domestic violence.

You could also point out that this 50:50 parity (and it is 50/50) has been going on for decades.

If, that is, you imagined that actual data and evidence mattered.

What? That picture says that roughly twice as many women than men experience abuse, both physical and emotional. That may not be a one-sided situation, but it's definitely not equal either.
