A cultural complicity in violence against women : Comments

By Tasman Bain, published 2/9/2014

Violence against women is both enabled and perpetuated by a culture that maintains a spectrum of sexism and misogyny, from the subtle and casual to the violent and extreme.

Indeed, what we men can do..
Tasman,

WollyB I agree with Onthe beach, well said, we all can be violent to each other one way or the other, it is not helped by one country being at war with another, politicians create wars, but do not fight in them, only lay the wreaths and shed crocodile tears, which mean nothing when all is said and done, perhaps this is the way we are born, to be violent.
Robert I know where you are coming from, as mentioned in a previous post on this subject my mother was a very violent woman, it left the family scarred at a very early age, and her actions has continued with us into our old age, my father never ever retaliated against her, he went through hell, and seriously if he had killed her, I am sure we would have agreed with him for what he may have done, he was a true gentleman, women are manipulate, they use men for gain only, look how models prostitute themselves for wealthy men and then hurry for a divorce to gain a vast settlement, this being the idea in the first place.

There is no "epidemic" of violence against women outside the indigenous community, if Ken Lay is saying that there is he needs to be sacked.
The rate of violence against women by partners is officially 500 per 100,000 but that's a tricky figure because it's based on the number of overall Police reports and as we know the most violent couples will have many interactions with the Police per year. The only violent couple I know has had three visits from the Police in the last four months until he left the home plus she's taken out an AVO and made more complaints against him down at the station.
The actual numbers of women being abused are small as is the number of perpetrators and if you exclude Aboriginals the numbers in the mainstream are insignificant.
We have to start calling out these Feminists like Tasman and portray them as they actually are, they're either lying outright or too lazy to do a simple internet search for the correct information.
Repeating Feminist dogma is lazy and leaves the author open to ridicule.
Feminists use fear and scaremongering to try and control a certain type of impressionable person and to get people to fund their foundations and victim support groups, it's no different to race baiting fraudsters like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson carrying on about "racism" to keep the donations rolling in.

Thank you Wolly B.

Now let's wait for the author to apologise for his sexism and culture of violence against men.

Tasman?
