Gay domestic violence: the hatred that dare not speak its name : Comments

By Ben-Peter Terpstra, published 22/7/2014

After all, physical and emotional female-on-female violence is problematic for campaigning journalists bent on portraying domestic violence as a symptom of patriarchy.

This is getting off the track of the original article.

<After all, physical and emotional female-on-female violence is problematic for campaigning
<journalists bent on portraying domestic violence as a symptom of patriarchy.

It was more than a few years ago that I read something similar to what this author is presenting, it is however very easy for example the media to overlook contradictions in the way information is disseminated.

I have noticed that many of the fictional American TV shows, will sprout word for word, the false, fictional feminist propaganda about DV or people trafficking and state them as being fact.

The academic world is filled with the concept that women are oppressed in every way possible and at all times by men.

And, and so it seems, journalism is becoming similar.

Waiting for the academic world or for journalism to change is not going to help someone who is actually the victim of domestic violence.

But direct action can be taken, and if domestic violence is being carried out on someone, then they make a record of it every time, and then make the decision to report it to the police and have the person charged.

I would think this would bring about a significant reduction in domestic violence almost overnight.

The era of women carrying out domestic violence, and then deciding to get a divorce, and then walking away with the children and most of the assets will come to an end.

More than likely, she will walk away without the children and without the assets, but with a number of domestic violence charges, and the possibility of having to pay compensation money to the husband and the children.
