Men's Group
In reply to the discussion: It's really only violence if it is man vs. woman. [View all]Bonobo
(29,257 posts)You focuses on the specific part of my post that offended you, the part asking why women's groups don;t mention violence against men. I get that and I understand. You are sort of right, but the real point of the post is the lack of attention that is given in the world at large about male violence.
Are you denying that part? And yes, we DO have a men's group and we DO talk about being less violent against each other. But THIS post is about the lack of attention paid by society to violence by men against men and it is suggesting that the media (and even you by your quick defensiveness) serve to diminish the importance of the issue as if men's lives are worth less and violence against them isn't worthy of attention as compared to male vs. female violence.
So then since you know we are a men's group focusing on violence, an issue that affects MEN disporportionately, WHY did you come here? Just to grouse about the one word I put in that about "women's groups"? Well, forget them. I don't expect reasonable treatment from them when articles like THIS exist.
