Yes the shelter site is very misleading

women can call 0808 2000 247, the free 24-hour National Domestic Violence Helpline run in partnership between Women's Aid and Refuge
men can call the Men's Advice Line free on 0808 801 0327 (Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm) or ManKind on 01823 334 244

What on earth is with the attitude? 'you could have easily found it in seconds'. Its you that brought the clip up..not me

I can't actually watch them at the min either as I have no headphones and husbands watching TV but will watch them later on or in the morning

I don't quite understand what you are meaning by this?

If women dont care about mens rights , why should men care about womens?

Who is asking men to care about womens rights?

Your entire thread seems to be about women apparently not caring about mens rights?

------------------------------


Also what you seem to be failing to address is that nearly all domestic violence is actually perpetrated by men too. I don't know where the 40% claim comes from either given police statistics say differently?

http://www.refuge.org.uk/about-domes...ce-and-gender/

-Metropolitan Police statistics show that male violence against women made up 85% of reported domestic violence incidents
-A 2009 study based on police reports, which accounted for the dynamics of domestic violence, found that only 5% of domestic violence incidents were perpetrated by women in heterosexual relationships
-Domestic violence is patterned, repeated behaviour intended to assert power and control over the victim. Of those who experience 4 or more incidents of domestic violence, 89% are women
-Four times as many women as men are killed by a current or former partner. Two women a week are killed as a result of domestic violence in England and Wales

Unless the 2009 study has been done over I guess...
