Almost 40% of domestic abuse victims are men and women are more likely to be instigators in emotional abuse as well as physical abuse. Granted, abuse against women is more likely to be fatal, but saying that that means we shouldn't treat abuse against men seriously is horrifying. Imagine there was a man who was being abused by his girlfriend but is too scared to say anything about it. The advert treats all men as perpetrators and women as victims meaning this man is going to keep on getting abused and therefore it is okay for this guy to get abused because somewhere else, a woman is getting worse treatment. Not only is this a non sequiter but it is sickening and vile.
