suse: It isn't right, but she can't 'prove' anything.....

And vica versa, but proving it to a judge is even harder for a man because of gender. I agree with Wolly's scenarios.

I have personally witnessed violence in lesbian groups & the mental violence that goes on in women's shelters, where the councillors are hell bent on convincing battered women to become lesbians. My present wife.

My biggest hiding was from a big butch woman. I was 18, just finished Recruit Training & went to Corps Training in Sydney, on my first leave I went to the Civic Hotel & started talking to nice looking girl. Everybody around me moved tables. Sometime later, this big woman came in & belted the hell out of the girl. I tried to intervene, that's when she started on me. Out of the Lounge down the spiral staircase & out into the Street. I took off & ran all the way to the Prince of Wales with my tail between my legs, bleeding like a stuck pig.

JayB, now your homophobia shines through your words.
There is no way anyone can 'convince' someone else to 'become' a lesbian.
We are discussing domestic violence here, not homophobia.
See you all on another thread.

BS. Very naïve.

We are discussing domestic violence here, not homophobia.

No, same sex violence. Mostly to do with lesbians. Believe me if the Butch catches her girlfriend looking in another direction.... there WILL be violence.

This comes from a NSW government website.

“Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and intersex (LGBTI) people experience domestic violence at a similar rate to non-LGBTI women:1 in 3 people.”

http://www.acon.org.au/anti-violence/Same-Sex-Domestic-Violence

1 in 3, but they still don’t mention heterosexual men, or recognise them in any way. Every other type of person is mentioned, except heterosexual men.

Heterosexual men are slowly being pushed off the map, or not regarded as being human or a citizen.

That website recommends reporting to the police, and it states “NSW Police Force policy, with the exception of domestic and family violence, states that officers must respect your wishes to not report a crime.”

“NSW Police Force has a statutory obligation when responding to reports of domestic and family violence. This means that if you report or call police to an incident, Police are required to take action.”

http://www.acon.org.au/anti-violence/report-to-police#police

So it is now obligatory for NSW police to investigate domestic violence, which makes it even more important that men keep a diary or a record of any type of domestic violence carried out by the woman.

Any type of problem from her, any type of abuse, insults, emotional blackmail, slaps, kicks, shoves, nagging, put-downs or being shouted at, and it is recorded for possible use as evidence later on.

If men don’t record it and later report it, men will be pushed even further off the map.

So true, and there is actually a research paper on how men are missing in social work research.

Jordan Kosberg
Heterosexual Males; A group forgotten by the Profession of Social Work.

Wolly B,

That paper was written about 11 years ago, and nothing has changed.

The gradual dehumanising of heterosexual men in social science is definitely continuing. But I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for any change in social science.

Instead, men should be making records of any type of domestic violence (either emotional or physical) from a woman at home for use latter on.

Also at work, where I have seen a considerable amount of abuse and insults from women towards men.

Any such abuse from women at work should also be recorded.

A quick way of making records is to set up a text database on a mobile and make notes on a mobile.

When women begin to realise that what they say and do could be recorded, I think this will bring far greater change and improvement than any social science research paper.
