One third of domestic abuse victims are male

@TLMTTCSJTT1 you are talking complete and utter nonsense.

It looks like they are quoting from 2022/23 ONS which are quoted here https://mankind.org.uk/statistics/statistics-on-male-victims-of-domestic-abuse/

Really?

Worked in Domestic Abuse for many years, I believe this. A huge problem is women who aren't victims or perpetrators but observing often dismissing the possibility. I have seen some really disturbing cases of Domestic Abuse against men. Also it is still so very normalised for women to hit men. If a man hits a woman everyone immediately suggests she leaves and safeguards herself- she can tell someone. Men will rarely tell their friends. A lot of their children witness it, including adult children and it's really sad.

Agree to some extent with the above. It was quite some years ago that local domestic Violence, multi agency partnerships expanded the brief (mission creep?) to any incidents of violence which happen in a domestic setting. and beyond to persons known to each other.

Includes carers, cared for, children, parents, gay men, men, Lesbians, and any other family type relationship.

And some partnerships include loan sharks and pimps.

That is why most of the women’s sector changed DV to gender based violence and then sex based violence. It’s just the patriarchy moving the fucking goal posts. And females involved in this are handmaidens.

What percentage of perpetrators are male?
What has been the effect of current strategy for 66% of victims?

Oh well. at least NI knows that domestic violence is a thing. Pity that focusing on women is impossible if the men are not centred.

Some of those men will be victims of violence from male partners or sons who abuse their elderly fathers. But no I don’t think that it’s anything like one third of victims, it’s much less.

There are a lot of men who falsely claim that they are victims when they are in fact perpetrators. Or to access homeless or other services.
