GBV stands for Gender based violence, could they start pointing out that women aren't angels either... I mean just recently it's shown how many women are actually killing kids.

Not only kids. There are those like Daisy de Melcker and then others that use no physical substances but still succeed in sucking the life out of some men :rolleyes:

I totally get the GBV and drive to protect women but what really grates me is almost the white washing of "men". Men must do better, men must not.... ah no, its scumbags that are doing it not "men".

General brushes are annoying as hell.

The entire thing is just BS.

My sister hit her kid and spit in her face.
That gets no attention.

"Yeah but men"
"Men should learn..."

How about we include

"Women need to learn to take accountability"
"Women need to learn to control their emotions"
"Women need to learn not to raise their hands to men"

No no, GBV is only for women and children.

So yeah, change it to scumbags, maybe we get less lindsay clancy in the wild.

Yup indeed, poison and other ways are normally the women way of taking out spouses. They also get off waaaay more than men for the exact same crimes

There was a social experiment, had actors stand out side screaming and shouting at each other, the man did it to the woman, many people intervened and tried to see what was going on, cops arrived and everything.
Repeat the scenario a few days later gender swap, not a single thing was done, it even got to the point where she was escalating to violence. Cops walked past, others walked past as if nothing was wrong. When they were all asked oh he must've done something to piss her off.

I have a related related related family member. The spouse hit the husband, tore his clothes and scratched him up. He actually went and lay a charge for DV with assault and they arrested the wife where she spent a week or two in Westville, then out on bail. Shows no remorse, back now and I can guarantee up to the same sh** and the husband just takes it again.

I am sick of the "men" whitewash. Personally I've been more harassed, cruelly treated and been maligned by women in the workplace than men. Men may yell and get angry but I've had a few experiences of cruel, vindictive and just plain nasty behavior by some women in power positions.

I knew of a guy who was abused by his girlfriend, he was taken to court cause the one time he pushed back to get her off of him, she laid a charge. Luckily there were character witnesses and such having seen what she could be like, she still didn't get anything done to her for the abuse against him, but at least he was let off, still lost custody of his kid but hey.
My boss's brother in law was arrested for abusing his wife, no if ands and buts, guy never laid a hand on her, she made it all up as they going through a messy divorce, he spent two weeks in prison while they were processing it. He's lost his job, his kids, pretty much everything. Even when proven not guilty.

Very few, by comparison to men. And yes, woman can get violent in domestic abuse too, but it's a much smaller proportion.

It's under-reported for men and as we've seen women get the preference no matter what, hell they can admit to strangling their kids and it still somehow is the mans fault.
Men don't report for a number of reasons, 1 they'll be ridiculed cause a women abuses them, or they'll end up being the one accused and it all turned around on them.
So saying 95% of all abuse is by men is an incorrect statistic, women are almost twice or three times as likely to report domestic abuse vs men, this skews it entirely in their direction and as pointed out, women get away with a lot, they can literally verbally abuse you in public or even hit you and no one would bat an eyelid.

1 in 3 domestic abuse victims is male – here’s why we need to talk about them

A recent analysis of domestic homicide reviews where victims were male, found that professionals regularly missed opportunities to intervene because of gender-based stereotypes.

www.centreforsocialjustice.org.uk

Why are men often overlooked as victims of domestic abuse? - The Centre for Social Justice

Domestic Abuse is routinely portrayed as a gendered crime, perpetrated by men against women.
www.centreforsocialjustice.org.uk www.centreforsocialjustice.org.uk
If the above is to be taken, it indicates 1 in 3 men are victims, whereas women are apparently 1 in 3 to 1 in 4?

So it's actually seems pretty even across the board, humans are humans, we also don't know how many of those abuse cases were just the man finally snapping and hitting her back?
I mean I've seen many times on how women can control men, from controlling who they see, how they spend their money, how they spend their free time and and. Abuse isn't always physical
 
It's massively underreported by women too, for various reasons.

Severe physical violence/homicide: 75-85% of victims are women. (CDC stats)
Minor physical violence, psychological abuse, etc: 50-60% of victims are women.

When it comes to underreporting, estimations are that male underreporting rates are 80-95%, female rates are 50-75%.

Okay so male under reporting is higher even on the low end to almost no reporting at all. But you can't see how the numbers are skewed?
If more women report something then men do, it'll look like women are the ones suffering more then men.
The reality is GBV effects both, but as usual men don't get any help or sympathy, hence the higher suicide rates, alcholism, drug addiction and other crippling issues.
Society has dictated women cannot be wrong, cannot be abusive, cannot murder and and.
Hell women even think that if they ruled the world would be a better place as they wouldn't declare war as much. But history indicates they are 27% more likely to do so, even 20th century proves that.

Just taking your numbers as an example, out of a 100 women 25 to 50 report it, out of 100 men 5 to 20 report it. See the massive difference in under reporting? Plus how it's skewed in the "official" reports.

Post in thread 'Proof of "Axioms" of Propositional Logic.'

Unfortunately "B" is provable from "(B)-->--(C) (C)" if we allow left facing Attractor Introduction (A:AtI), and we shouldn't be able to. So we got to disallow it. But then we can also not prove "(notB)" from "(B)-->--(C) (notC)".

We could disallow it and prove the latter by contraposition and Modus Ponens.
