When a Man Is A Victim of Partner Abuse

When a man is a victim of partner abuse
Filed under Commentary, Laws, Partner Abuse no comments
The US Dept. of Justice says there about 840,00 male victims of domestic violence each year.

These are just the men we know about. If there’s anything I’ve learned in 10 years of advocacy for unserved victims of partner abuse, it’s that men don’t tell. Some men even think that being abused is the price they have to pay for living with a beautiful/wonderful/sexy woman.

I think domestic problems are very often unreported.

Possibly.

But in all seriousness, you would use the same set of guidelines/standards as you would with male on female abuse - be it physical, mental or emotional abuse.

abuse is abuse and you use the same standard regardless of the gender of the victim and the perpetrator.

Gender does matter as do psychological traits associated with those genders. For instance, men started Playboy magazine and women contributed their images subservientally. It wasn't the other way around.

If men and women expect to be treated the same in one aspect of society, discard the differences in other aspects. Don't expect one without giving the other.
