To ask what about victims of male on male violence

Many men are victims of violence by other men. The majority of men are murdered by other men, very often their friends or acquaintances. So, if that isn't being talked about enough, I created a thread right here, for that specific issue.

There's plenty of evidence that general equality and gender equality play a role in reducing violence.

I'd start with that as a goal to work towards.

@SamphiretheTervosaurReturneth I didn't mean you didn't know.
I meant that the pressure from higher up was motivated by a need to create a mirror image that didn't actually match with needs on the grounds. And I do think its motivated by some of the "what-about-men"ing pressure that doesn't actually come from men who care about male victims particularly, or who have much practical experience. It becomes a wild (end expensive) goose chase.

Apologies. I bet you can imagine how many times we have been heavily criticised for the men's centre not being successful 😊
