    O”ne organisation has also said that the federally funded Mensline television advertisement could also be a factor.”

    We need to do this here in the U.S.

    “VicHealth chief executive Rob Moodie, who commissioned the Australian Institute of Criminology survey, described the attitude shift as disturbing given that domestic violence was the leading cause of preventable death for women aged 15 to 44 in Victoria.”

    In the US, according to the Centers for Disease Control, domestic violence is way down on the list of causes of emergency room visits for women — below accidental falls in the home, car crashes and even pet bites. The evidence I believe will show that women are at greater risk for death from those aforementioned causes than from DV. Also, one might want to consider the fact that in the US (and this probably applies to Australia and other countries as well) males are far more ikely than females to be homicide victims. The evidence also indicates that married women are significantly safer in their homes than women who are unmarried and dating or in live-in relationships.

    “‘There may be a reluctance to see men as the more violent sex, and an appeal in the idea of gender equality in regards to domestic violence. But the data simply doesn’t support this view,’ Dr Flood said.”

    Well gee, Dr Flood, um… there’s only about 30 years of research done in the US and countries abroad that shows that when it comes to partner violence, females initiate physical assaults against their partners at least as often as do their male counterparts. And high school and college girls in dating relationships initiate physical violence against their partners more frequently than do their male counterparts. In addition, the long-term evidence indicates that hetero male perpetrated intimate partner violence has been decreasing while female perpetrated partner violence has remained steady or increased. (I’m curious about what Dr Flood thinks of the fact that the evidence shows that in lesbian relationships, the battery and murder rate is at least as high as that which exists among couples in hetero relationships?)

    Incidentally, again in the US, according to a report by the Justice Dept, wives account for about 40 percent of those who perpetrate spousal homicides.

    This article is a somewhat clever feminist diatribe that seeks to dismiss all the valid research about gender parity in domestic violence.

    Australia is the very last cuntry I would use as an example of advancing men’s rights.

    Aussie men are the most pussy-whipped drunkards on the planet.

    And, their woman all look 20 years older than their actual ages.

    Too much sun.

    Hags they are. Even at 25.

    Ever been there?

    Sad.

    I just find it amusing how the feminist spin machine comes out, desperately (and comically) trying to perpetuate their myths, whenever the so-called “helping professions” start feeling threatened by the truth.

    The newspapers were stunned as well as the government agencies as they have been feeding the “women are the only victims” crap for so long that they even believe it.

    Flood is the Aussie version of Hugo, a feminised mangina incapable of honesty where women are concerned as it does not come withing the bouderies of their feminist doctrine.

    But, they have been caught with their pants down, and all those lies and half-truths have got to stop.

    The worse culprits for spreading these lies on DV is the “Office for Women (what a suprise), this sexst government funded organization only wanted women to be researched to increase the bloated thievery they receive from the taxpayer via a feminised government.

    The ABS (Australian Bureau of Statistics) would not be corrupted so they financed it themselves.

    Talk about a farce and an utter joke. The feminazy are alive and operating in Aus, so far.

    Australian Safety Survey Kills Feminist Distortions

    “The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) Personal Safety Survey has finally emerged and along with its appearance, the statistical myths of feminist’s victimhood and women’s class oppression – particularly those relating to claims of epidemic violence against women – have immediately vaporised.”

    “Their silence is deafening.”

    “The survey reveals a picture of what any rational person should have assumed about life simply by observation of the world around them and their day to day existence in it. The survey reveals what most people should have known or should have suspected about the facts of social violence – it is men rather than women who have the most to fear regarding their personal safety. It further reveals that the perpetrators of violence, in all their ugly forms and diversity, are not just men, and that the domain of perpetrators includes a significant percentage of women.”

    Wake me in the fifty years when the Muslim’s come to rule over us. After the feminization of man is complete in the western culture and women and children rule over all. The Muslims will come to take what they will, acting freely as men have for over 6,000 years.

    Or better God will send a great wave to wash us all away.

    Until then these stories grow increasingly boring to me. Same “men bad, woman good” message. I feel sleepy all of a sudden.
