Why do you assume that daves message comes from another male when its says "a lot of things have happened since ive been away from you". Should be a dead give away that it was sent by his ex,[ but maybe i'm wrong]. And that is the problem, many feminists will automatically assume that it was sent by a male because in many cases they refuse to acknowledge that women can be just as nasty. As regards DV, it is not at all uncommon for a female to get a male family member or male friend to inflict violence on a partner/ex partner. This is not seen as DV despite the fact that it was the women who perpetrated it, and cases like that obviously skew the DV statistics as they are seen as male-male violence.
