Domestic Violence ruling - DV laws MUST be gender neutral

[TrueBlueCanuck]

there is one problem with that.If men call the police to report DV they will get arrested

[TediusZanarukando]

I detest feminists, as they are misandrists. I want the status quo to change. I am fed up with the ex parte DV industry. The laws on DV cased are completely ex parte. I am fed up with men being incarcerated on false DV charges. I am fed up with women using DV laws to blackmail men into transferring property to them and to blackmail and extort money from men.

[AmericaDevil]

10% are men, that's a minority, minorities deserve equal rights and services.

[jjrants]

Feminists are full of shit. Not only are the laws on DV cases completely biased towards the female gender (meaning that men are ALWAYS guilty until proven innocent), But it's feminists groups who advocate NOT reforming paternity fraud laws. To cleaim feminism is about "EQUAL rights" is a damned joke and they very well know it.

[EvilsOfFeminism]

Thank God. I'm tired of feminists thinking they speak for all women with their psychotic hate program. Maybe now they won't be able to stab their husbands with impunity and laugh all the way to the bank.

[videodads]

@EvilsOfFeminism I'm sure all feminists world-wide are super, super-happy that DV is now being forced as an equal issue; thus protecting men as well as women... I mean, feminism is about equality - right? LOL

[EvilsOfFeminism]

@videodads Yeah, I'm sure they're levying death threats at their own people like they did to Christina Hoff Sommers when she called them on their bullshit.

[EvilsOfFeminism]

@videodads Doesn't it say a lot about a movement when it is literally impossible to talk about it without at least some degree of sarcasm? Just a thought.

[6oodfella]

"But hang on, why don't these male victims of DV just restrain her, or be a real man and walk away?"

This is the usual bullshit that people spout, forgetting that a man does not want to walk away and leave his children with a mad woman, he can't take them to a tax-funded secure place, as he has a penis, so he has to stay and protect the children.

Also, try restraining a woman with an ice-pick in her hand, red eyes, and a determination to cause you pain, it's not as easy as it sounds.

[6oodfella]

"When 90% of the people coming for help are women, that's where we need to put our resources, while still making sure we cater to men."

In other words, men will get the absolute bare minimum, enough to avoid a lawsuit.

It's like Microsoft saying;

"90% of Xbox users are male, so women are allowed to buy the console, but they're not allowed to buy the controllers, as we need to ensure most of our users are catered for first, based on gender."

[GTCism]

Finally, the ugly lie is revealed, the horrible abuse of men by women and feminist is being stopped! In this social injust area anyways, we still have so many abuses created by the feminist chauvanist pigs to reveal and correct as it pertains to abuse against men.

[ManSpeakOut]

Plus there is one big factor behind why men does not report DV.

Thanks to Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), men are arrested on default if a domestic violence call has been made. This is an act that feminists want to be set in motion to scare men from reporting abuse and sadly it is effective. If domestic violence laws are going to be gender neutral that act needs to go, and in its place a Violence Against People Act (VAPA) must be set in motion.

[samten10a]

@ManSpeakOut A person I work with got himself a flip camera and carry it all the time. The last time his wife went over the edge he got it on video and got it to his lawyer. He called lawyer just after his wife called 911. It save his ass. His wife was not only charged with DV but filing a false police report.

[ManSpeakOut]

@samten10a Luckily your friend was able to provide undeniable proof, via camera. Thousands of other men were not so lucky.

The fact that you have to carry a camera with you so you can provide undeniable evidence just to be proven innocent, something is wrong with the system then.

Thousands of women like you described know of the sexist special privileges given to them, and use them to the fullest, lucky for this woman, it came back to bite her in the ass.

[ManSpeakOut]

@samten10a Shame though that she probably was not seriously charged.

There are laws in the books that are against false accusations of crimes but they are hardly enforced, and when they are, the severity of the punishment is not big enough. There is only one reason behind this phenomenon, that reason being is that the majority of the false accusations made is by women, and in western culture women are rarely held accountable for anything.

[ManSpeakOut]

Yeah for example, the John Bobbitt case. Woman goes crazy after John dumps her for another man, she goes nuts and cuts his penis off. She said in her defense that he abused and attacked her, but those claims were found to be false and her charge was dropped.

How did people respond? They laughed their asses off. How did feminists respond? They cheer and cheer for this woman and called her a hero.

What does that tell you? It should tell you that feminism is really for female supremacy.

[MattBurnerHopkins]

Suck my MANLY cock all you slutty feminist bitches!!!

If anyone watching this knows of any anti-feminist groups ether on or off line leave a comment for the other members of your brotherhood.

[sdamron67]

society always believed that Men are violent, and women are victims. Look on tv sitcoms. everybody loves raymond, seinfeld, three and a half men. when a man hits a woman, its a tragedy, but when a woman hits a man, its a comedy. this MUST Stop!!!

[FallOfDenial]

Yes! Yes!  Yes!

[ticklecreek]

I don't for a moment think that feminists would advocate that men who are victims of domestic abuse are any less in need of support. Feminists simply desire equal rights, they do not wish to be treated more favourably - just fairly. Many men do not report abuse because they are too embarrassed to admit that they are victims of female violence which says more about male cultural stereotyping and society's expectations of male identity than it does about feminism.

[mathewskarl]

Unfortunately, ticklecreek, reality begs to differ with your comments. Feminists HAVE advocated that men in D/V situations (as victims, not perps) be treated very differently to female victims. There's a video of MRA's congregated in a public forum which they rallied into and disrupted for no reason other than hatred of men. They DO advocate for preferential treatment repeatedly.

I see you are blaming men for discrimination of men - I guess you are pro-feminist as you're blaming men then...

[stupidfeminazifoolz]

Yes if they wanted equal rights why on earth would they only push for a VAWA act. preferential treatment is what they adovocate.

Oh about the video FINALLY! shelters are being made to be fair. The mra's are making progress.

Also that shelter director at the end is chatting crap if only 10% of men are coming in instead of women then its far cheaper to improve service for those 10% than the 90% of women. Just look at the jails of men and women, the women have far better quality jails.

[g0dlike308]

" Feminists simply desire equal rights, they do not wish to be treated more favourably" - Possible the biggest lie ive ever heard in my life.

[jeromeT1020]

If that is so then why do feminists hold the belief that a man has no right to defend himself if a woman assaults him. That sounds like favorable treatment to me especially these days when women especially teenage girls are more likely to physically assault a boy than the other way around.

[g0dlike308]

feminism and fairness in the same sentence? HAHAHAHAH. Whats next, Earth and flat in the same sentence?

But i do agree on one thing, it's not entirely feminism's fault that male idiots allow themselves to be stereotyped and in turn massively under report domestic violence.

[jeromeT1020]

Just like it's not mens fault that the majoraty of female rape victims don't report it to the police.

[Hzqi]

I've yet to see a single credible study (from a credible source) to back up that claim.

It's inevitable that some women don't report it. These feminuts would have you believe that only 1 in 6 is reported. Get that? One in Six. So, take their artificially inflated incidence rates, add it to their delusional False-Report claims, multiply it by 6 and put a cherry on top. And there's a woman being raped behind every third bush. Just look out your window. See that bush over there?

OUTRAGE!

[loqutor]

This is wonderful news. NOMAS (a group of castrated men) fought the creation of men's shelters, as well as defending women-only shelters.  NOMAS claims that they're "enhancing [sic] men's lives." How does keeping a man from getting the help he needs constitute enhancing his life? As soon as I get my next paycheck, I will gladly join NCFM, an organization for REAL men.

We've had a major victory in California, men, but our work is far from done. Let's pressure courts in EVERY state.

[ibmsony101]

The NOMAS ghas the same mind set that had laws in the middle ages of punishing men beaten by their wives by having them ride a donkey bakward while the village came out to humiliate the man that his wife beat him.

[centreline67]

I hate the woman being interviewed. She goes on about how 90% of the people coming forward for help are women but I guess it never ocurred to her to then gear 10% of efforts and resources to the men who were seeking help. Just 0% instead. And considering the stigma and bullshit aimed at men who do come forward those guys must have been desperate for help. She must be so proud. Thank God the courts will now force the shelters to acknowledge EVERYONE.

[takernotagiver]

"I hate the woman being interviewed"

see

there you go.

dear fucking god.

misogyny isn't going help anyone.

[loqutor]

Hatred of an individual woman isn't the same thing as hatred of all women. Are you going to call feminists misogynistic because of the way they treat Ann Coulter (whom they should really be praising for her multitudinous achievements)?

[stinger321]

He said he hated the WOMAN, singular, being interviewed. He didn't say he hates all women being interviewed.

[mathewskarl]

See

There you go.

Dear fucking God.

Misandry and lying about what a man said isn't going to help anyone.

[Hzqi]

See if I can be of assistance to your syntax education.

"I hate THE womAn being interviewed".

"I hate womEn being interviewed".

Only one of these sentences carries gender prejudice. The other is personally directed.

Understand the difference?

KTHXBYE.

[CountArtha]

Hooray!

[jbgood3]

The shelter man hater still sees DV in gender terms. She could have used this opportunity to declare the shelter welcomes all victims regardless of gender or age. She would then practice equality rather than preach it. She might have included a request for additional funding. She obviously doesn't need it!

Shame to see the architect of VAWA may become VP without being challenged on its unconstitutional nature.

Anyway. Its a good result. "Another Brick in the Wall" has come out. Mines a pint!

[WizardKing78]

If that guy didn't have an inbuilt sense of chivalry towards women (something that must be eliminated from society) he would have clouted that cunt-woman and thrown her out into the street.

[proudguy]

I am a proud member of the National Coalition For Free Men (NCFM). All men should join this organization right now. Then we will see real progress.

[under9000]

This is great.

This gives me great hope towards the men's rights movement.

[MrUbuntu]

This is an amazing breakthrough for men's rights. I really hope this spreads to the UK soon.

[sirskeptic]

The best thing it that it made the common news service. That made the message heard by thousands and legitemised it.

[Chevrobert]

That's great news finally some light shed on a problem feminists like to keep in the dark. This shows that women are not exclusively victims of men. Once this really gets out I think we will see more men getting help instead of suffering in silence as has been our lot for decades.

[mathewskarl]

Absolutely - this is a breakthrough in so many respects, not just for men - but for children of male victims too. In addition, it will cause ripples - feminist 'studies' will be finally called out for what they are - bias, opinionated lies.

[luckybozo1]

@Chevrobert I hate the fact that the lady said only 10% of men came for help...well how many or what percentage does it need to be considered important? One has to take into account the women who lie about being abused...and the men who were too ashamed to come forward to seek help...I bet you if you can take away those lying "victims" and add back the abused men...the percentage of men would be much much higher. And women don't face off with men. They could throw weapons and lies.

[Chevrobert]

@luckybozo1 Yeah feminists and the DV industry want things to stay the way they are because it benefits them. What they ignore though is that DV will keep being a problem as long as they are blaming one gender for it while excusing the other.

[subdoodle]

That's a wonderful first step. Many more are needed but this one will help raise awareness. Then men here are not trying to create new and exclusive rights just for men. Rather, they are just trying to achieve basic fairness and dignity and access for all victims.

[mathewskarl]

Well this is the difference between 'feminists' and MRA's...

Feminists have demonstrated repeatedly they seek 'special laws' for women only - MRA's seek to gain equality for ALL.
