They don’t go to hospital for black eyes, neither do the menfolk. You sit at home with a bag of frozen peas on them, same with fat lips and a variety of cuts and scrapes. Everyone in the DV game knows you don’t go near mandatory reporters in this country.
I’m not sure why the conversation turned to lesbians.
We’re going to end up with IRA maybe - Inter-Relationship Abuse rather than DV? Or violence is violence and we get rid of the word domestic because it takes away how society sees that violence?
Paul I don’t see Suze as having distaste for everything male. The male group just seems to outnumber the female group on OLO. You can’t say women are mistreated in any way without 5 messages coming back going on about how men are too or women hit men more these days or lesbo’s are doing it for themselves. Read and sigh, read and sigh.
Disrupting sleep or disturbing sleeping habits is abuse? HOUEL!
