Yes, they are unbelievable. I'm still writing my submission but this is what I wrote in relation to clause 14:

No. In fact only some research shows women and children (as against men and children) as being victims in the “overwhelming” majority of cases. Most credible research shows the rate of male victimisation as being in a range between 35% and 70%. Similarly the claim that domestic violence is “gendered” is by no means universally accepted. Further, the statement that “men may also be affected by it” is inappropriate and suggestive of bias. Men are affected by it. Every single day.

Clause 14 of the Issues Paper reads :"Research shows that it is overwhelmingly women and children who are affected by family violence, and men who are violent towards them. For this reason, family violence is described as being 'gendered' . Although family violence is gendered, men may also be affected by it"

"May"? "MAY"? This is the brief inviting submissions, and yet even the submission brief is used as a platform to dispense misandry. May? I was abused verbally, emotionally and physically. By a woman. I don't believe the use of the word "may".

I told the fuckers. But they will simply delete my submission or discount it. Of that we MAY be certain.
