It is often said that the historical European and American witch-hunts were simply organized attacks on women. In contemporary society, this seems to be, at least partly, true.

About one quarter of the "witches" were men by the way.

35 percent of women worldwide, more than one in three, have experienced physical violence in their lifetime

Has anyone here NOT experienced violence in their lifetime? Am I meant to be impressed by that figure somehow? I mean I know women get attacked a lot less than men but even so that number seems ridiculously low. Even for women.

Seriously is this just me? 65% of women have NEVER experienced any physical violence in their ENTIRE LIFE???

Not a men's rights issue.

(Unless you count the modern-day witch hunts against "sexual assault", which this article doesn't)
