Annastacia Palaszczuk, a prominent politician in Australia is advocating more inclusive treatment of men in domestic violence campaigns

Here's the QLD government site about seeking help for domestic violence:

There are links For men - which, except for one small sentence are exclusively about how to stop yourself being an abuser. All examples and testimonials are about male on female violence.

There are links For women which exclusively represent women as victims.

There are many more insulting double standards on the site, but that is a good place to start Annastacia.

Great find. Of course she belongs to a different political party to the PM, so her influence may be limited, but it is a start. It shows that men telling their stories is compelling.

The point is that men who have been affected by domestic violence need to speak out and speak up.

Good on her. There was never any need to tack "against women" onto these things, now if we could take it off everything else we could move closer to true equality.
