Abuse goes both ways. Women can be very abusive and cruel too, especially with words. They can tell you the most horrible things and still think they are the victims. I don't approve, but I understand why some women get beaten. Keira Knightley's ad brings attention to the subject, but it's only one sided.
@HECTOR2006ELPASO You "understand" why sum women get beaten? I agree that men r victims as well & women can be quite creative with verbal abuse and the emotional effects last longer than the bruises. I agree that counselling and messages should not be skewed only to women, ignoring the unique needs of men that might be in this situation. I however will never "understand" why people wd emotionally crush and kill their partners. That goes 4 both men and women.
According to the American FBI, one in three women will become victims of intimate partner violence in their lifetimes. 94% of DV victims are women, 98% of perpetrators are men. There are approximately 1,700 homicides due to intimate partner violence in the U.S. every year. No one ever deserves to be hurt, no matter what they do. Using violence is chosen by the perpetrator, by definition, a victim is someone who has lost his or her power to make choices. -NCADV
@YakNarf Pretty startling statistics. Is that based on hospital admissions, self- divulging questionnaires from abusers, self- divulging questionnaires from abused, online polls or phone polls of representative areas? If these statistics are correct and not tainted I am surprised. So far every statistic I've read- by both Men's Rights Associations and by Government associations- has been tainted data.
@trollsarevirgins For example, according to the U.S. Department of Justice Bureau of Justice Statistics report published May, 2000- from their data- "in 1998, women experienced at least 900,000 violent offences at the hands of an intimate, and men were victims of at least 160,000 violent crimes by an intimate partner. Their report did not mention emotional abuse, harassment or stalking." Tainted data? Or true?
@YakNarf I would love to see that study because every (non feminist) study I have come across confirms DV to be about equal between male and female victims.
Also keep in mind that men dont report it for fear of social stigma not being believed or the fact that their is nowhere where they can go (DV shelters turn away men) so please provide the link to me because I have a link on my channel to 275 DV studies that confirm women to be equally violent in relationships compared with men.
I understand what you mean. Men are also the victims of domestic violence. But, and we have to be brutually honest here, the damage violent women cause to men in no way compares to the damn violent men cause to women. Men are the stronger sex, physically. Most men can defend themselves against a violent partner, but chose not to. Arguably, nearlly all women cannot defend themselves. The bottom line is a man can kill a woman with his bare hands. That's why it gets more attention.
There ought to be an open public inquiry into the function of "women's refuges". These organisations are actually charities with undisclosed government funding. I spent a time in my life as a prisoner inside Maghaberry prison in N. Ireland, this was for putting a short message on youtube where I published the phone number of the refuge in Lisburn Co. Antrim. This was not a private number, it's on their website. I AM A VICTIM OF ABUSE BY the PSNI, the PRISON service all because of my wifes' LIES!
@billyshaw136able. All anyone has to do is watch your youtube videos to understand the type of man you are! Cursing your wife and family publically is not the best way to get them back, neither is breaking court orders! Verbally abusing your family openly on youtube shows everyone why your wife left you, your the only person who cannot see it, verbal abuse is torture to the receipients, stop bullying your wife and accept she has finally wised up to your crap. Good for her!
@billyshaw136able You say you love your family, yet keep talking about these 'lies'? What lies, theres no smoke without fire. You verbally abuse your family publically on youtube and give out there details, and you think this is love? you have no respect for the decision your family have obviously made, to leave and have no contact with you. If your such a loving husband and father, then they would not have left in the 1st place. Tell us all the truth about why they left, it will set YOU free!!!
sammys70 I disagree. Why do you ask why she doesn't leave, instead of asking why he hurts her? This attitude makes the problem of domestic violence worse. We should blame the perpetrators for their crimes instead of victims.
YakNarf I'm not blaming the victims at all,and i never condone what happens to these women.I've never put my hand on a woman and never will.Plus i could never see myself in a abusive relationship because i'm alot stronger to let my life go theough that hell,and put my children through that.
sammys70, the attitude you have of blaming the victim is part of the reason domestic violence is such a big problem. Why do you ask why she doesn't get out, instead of asking why he beats her? We should blame the perpetrators instead of the victims.
A lot of women all over the world are tricked by abusive men who begin relationships normally but who gradually take more and more control away from their victim until she is trapped.
It's something people such as yourself don't like to admit, but there is a lot of truth to it.
One in three women will be affected by intimate partner violence in her lifetime. Do you really believe 1 in 3 women have a fetish for being abused? I have never met someone looking an abusive partner.
Do you realize that American women commit almost half of domestic violence?
And yeah, you are in denial or naive to think that there are not women out there that look for abusive men. Even a freshman in psychology 101 can give you a couple of reasons why.
Lots of women look for abusive partners. They believe that is what "love" really is. They may be abusive themselves. They could be proving that "all men are scum" by dating/marrying abusive men. Or they have victim mindsets that continue this dynamic.
You say, "are tricked by abusive men" but there ARE warning signs. Many women actually chose to ignore them or are screwed up themselves (abusive, manipulative, passive-aggresive, etc).
@Wytchfinde "They may be" ... "they could be" .... blah blah blah. You have no facts or statistics to stand on that can discredit the painful stories from the DV victims I have worked with. They did not choose to be beaten, burned, or raped, and now they are struggling to escape exes who continue to stalk and threaten them and their children. Why don't you just say that you honor and support your fellow abusers? You are clearly on their side.
@Wytchfinde I see. So you can call women "screwed up," boxergirl a "hypocrite," and me an "arrogant moralist," but if I ask you to take a strong, definite position then I am attacking you personally. Right.
@Wytchfinde If it makes me a moralist that I don't believe people should be hurt, and that I believe perpetrators should be held accountable, then I am happy to be a moralist. I'm not interested in attacking you personally and I apologize if I crossed a line. I'm pretty sure I comprehend your position - it's women's fault that DV happens, because they seek it out? Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong though, or even take jabs at my intelligence again, if you prefer going that route :)
There are women out there that do seek abusive men out, or make excuses for their behavior, or stay with them out of even pity. Or they grow up believing that domestic violence is part of "loving" relationships. They mistake kind men for being weak.
I don't make this up. It's real life. And speaking of jabs at your intelligence, why you don't understand this is cause for calling not just your comprehension in order, but your perspective as well.
@Wytchfinde Another personal attack from the man who continually cries foul when others attack him personally. Go ahead and dig yourself a little deeper.
@Wytchfinde I do not work with DV victims anymore, I volunteered for awhile when I was a student but I couldn't handle all of their pain. You know what Wytchfinde? You are the first person I met who blames the victims so strongly, and in my shock at your maverick and harmful opinion I rushed to defend them. I have spoken my piece, and I see that you are rude and incorrigible, and so I am bowing out. Good luck in life, you're going to need it, and hopefully our paths will never cross again.
If I had slagged you vulgarily you could actually make that claim. Stop lying.
The fact you are willingly naive or in denial about women who actually seek abusive men out is your problem. In all honesty, what really is surprising is that you can't come to terms with that.
@YakNarf When you worked with victims of domestic abuse, did the organisation you worked with work with male victims of domestic abuse too, or was the organisation set up as for women only? I do not support DV in any of its forms, whether committed by men or women, and ALL victims need support.
I'm sorry to say this,but most of the time for these women put themselves in these situations and rush into a realtionship without really getting to know their partner.If i see signs that raise a red flag while i'm dating that person i would think long and hard before taking that next step.There are good men out here that are single but many women don't want to take the time to get to know a good man and his good qualities that are inside.
@sammys70 I've just come out of a domestic violence situation . I do agree that there can be a rush into relationships which was evident with my parents relationship with eight months between dating and marriage. However, this is part of the control. And although you say there are warning signs, often there are not. Sadly, for my Mum, she found out 3 weeks after she was married. He beat her with her shoe. By then, she felt duty bound to stay because of her marriage vows to him. All about control
You're right about good men out there---and women that pass them up. It's all about how exciting and wild men are now, not if you have cultivated yourself.
It's not politically correct to say it, but let's face it---DV situations are often not a one-way street. There are women out there that act like their ex was a monster and she may have been as bad as he was. Plus, there are women that even seek out men like this to confirm whatever psychology they have.
I haven't the time. I'm 59 years young, I have a life to live, I can do without this fn crap in my life. Either my family oy 21 years is DEAD or I need an fn brain transplant. My wife is approximately 41, my children are 18 and 13 so what should I do, DIE?
still as mad as a hatter. Do you think for one moment that I, Billy Shaw, am going to accept my wife's slander and libel. MY LOST FAMILY. My wife has gone insane!¬ If you had seen the summons I recieved on Saturday with my wife's blatant lies on it YOU would probably say ENOUGH OF THIS SHITE.
@billyshaw136able Fuck, look at the statistics for abuse, and you'll see that there are very very very VERY few false accusations. If her words truly are false, then my condolenses, but stop being such a selfish bastard! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY more womin are beaten to death than men are falsely accused.
EIGHT fucking years, fuck off, you gotta be fn kiddin'. I read this one last of emails I got about and I'm not goiung to wait EIGHT fn years 8 fn minutes are fn hard enough. I AM TOTALLY OBSESSED WITH THE LOSS OF MY FAMILY AFTER 20 YEARS AND 3 MONTHS OF MARRIAGE, 2 DAUGHTERS now on Malaika Shaw youtube and Rwanda Shaw also fn you fn tube. Check it out!
I have NOT been violent to my wife or children. They (my family) entered that, so called, refuge at 7 Beechland Way, Lisburn, Co. Antrim, N. Ireland. on 02/09/2008. Since then my wife, Mrs Khadija Shaw, has been lying about ME.
Naturally, I resent this as well as the indescribable mental PAIN that I am suffering NOW
yes -i saw message - and like i said --obsession will NOT get you anywhere at all.
Also- I'm not kidding about 8 years .Its gone on that long because i was obsessed -like you are now. But - 5 years ago I snapped out of it --but am paying the price for the first 3 years .
If you dont 'ease off' on the pressure- you will dig yurself in so so deep- it will not get resolved and you wont be able to rectify things.
Part 2 Billyshaw has had 8 months of hell, however his wife and family have chosen to be in a refuge, the fact he readily identified the address of the refuge shows his limited understanding of violence against the vulnerable people who stay here, my family has had six years of Hell and an eternity to follow, get a life and support the fight against violence towards women.
Thanks philmbufffred for your support. Unfortunately my family have recently been moved out of the "liars prison" and been given a free house by the British government and also my detective work also found out that my wife has recieved over £3000 recently.
Never mind living in hell Billy. Its a fact of life - those workers in the places that 'help' women - are man haters . they all have their own story to tell. And - chinese whispers creep into everyones story. They take away the hope of a reconciliation from parted couples . Keeps those workers in a job and fuels their hate towards men . Its very sad . it wrecks a guys life and also wrecks the womans life and any kids affected. yess- they do tell lies and feed hate . Its sad -very sad .
Also- dont blame the police when they get involved . They have to take the word of the woman to cover their backs . They are in a impossible situation - as I am sure any police reading this will agree.
They also KNOW they are arresting a man who has done nothing wrong- and that the woman has been influenced by womens aid workers. Womens aid workers come into contact with a woman when she is 'down' -at a very low point in her life . Easy pickings for them to work on . Brainwashing -sad
I used to work with a guy whose wife used to beat the shit out of him, he's come in to work bruised at least once or twice a month. Eventually he snapped and raised his hand to her, she prosecuted and he lost his home , his kids nearly everything. Great video and a worthy cause but men are victims of this stuff more than people realise.
Es todo lo que NO SE QUIERE VER. Dichos tales como "Entre marido y mujer, no hay que meterse" y etc etc... muestran su cobarde efecto. Son los dos minutos mas largos y dolorosos que ya vi, pero hay que mostrarlos.
rewood the man at the start of the ad said 'see ya tomorrow' and if you believe that because how you crudely put it "it's not domestic abuse if you catch her cheating." the maybe you should seek psychological help and this is a worring statment. women go to the police every min due to domestic abuse and 2 women die evey week. can you justify you statment now!!!
100% agree with your comment too many men think it does not matter it is just keeping women in there place. my sister was kept in place till she was murdered. Appreciate you speaking out for WA
I agree, there are violent people in the world. Problem is, I'm not one of them. My wife and mother of our children has made a massive mistake and she KNOWS it. Unfortunately, she is frightened to escape from the clutches of the "liars prison!".
Billy, you said she left the "liars prison" and was now in a government funded safe house now you say she is frightened to leave the "liars prison" please wake up Womens Refuges are not holiday camps and police safe houses are basic, why does she not feel she can not just leave you and be safe, and again you say you are not violent, why post the address of a refuge with vulnerable women and children in it who many other "violent" men would like to visit. Ian

me encanta q hayan hecho este tipo d videos y q pesima idea d esas personas britanicas q quieren sacarlo... osea , esto es parte d nuestra realidad, salgan d esa estupida burbuja ,esto pasa en todos los paises y deberia difundirse en todas partes, no quedarse en un pais, y es q los hombrs no queirn q vean xq esto da verguenza , hombres asi no deberian ni existir!!!pero existen y esos deben ser denunciados y juzgados x sus actos
Because it's hard getting a restraining order, moving, getting a divorce or not getting involved with these type of people in the first place. Real hard.
Would you walk in front of a big rig truck and then expect it to stop before it hits you? No. This isn't any different.
I think it's a real shame this advert has been banned because of the violence being deemed too shocking for audiences. It's so powerful. Surely after the watershed it would be okay to show it?! It's an issue that needs to be brought to people's attention after all, and having such a high profile actress involved in a shocking scene can only be a good thing for bringing domestic violence to the forefront of people's minds?
isn't it amazing the number of immoral opinions that are exhibited when a controversial video like this is posted?
on every single video of this particular issue, there are comments from sexist arseholes who see fit to announce their feelings (or lack of) fo women and how they dress or act.
I loooooove Keira Knightley! If she was my woman, I would teach her Chinese kung fu for self defense. That way no man can lay a hand on her. I love her!
as long as you women continue to place extensive value on being "hot" and gain your self-worth by what men think of you, then i'm afraid you will have to accept your subordination forever. feminism happened in te 70s, i know, but did it really? you are still the sexual beings of society. men contribute to the sex act just as much as women, yet society would have us believe that all sexual attributes lie in women. why is that? ever think about that?
pathetic. violene is violence. the idea that women must be protected more from violence than men do just reinforces the idea that women are less than men and need to be coddled. chivalric bullshit, what is this the 7th century?
they force women to be prostitutes (and they go to prostitutes, which is sick already)
and do the same thing to children
I mean, you don't see women doing this, at least not that often as men do it, they need therapists (and I'm not saying every man does this, but it's obvious that most of 'em do)
beeing2sharp stfu u stupid whore clearly your upset cuz u probably cant get a bf cuz ur so nasty. Btw if ur complaining about getting raped and abused u shouldn't fuckin piss us men off by depriving us of much needed sex (cuz most of u are lesbians) and if u tired of getting abused dont fuckin rely on your little theory (oh he won't hit me, I'm a girl I can say anything I want) well push the wrong guy to the limit and guess what ur gonna get what u deserve so stfu.
beeing2sharp you're stupid. western society has built up an image of women over the last few centuries as beings valued mainly for their sexual attributes and unable to attain any kind of physical prowess, whose primary purpose in life is to raise the men of the next generation who will make society continue to function. "violence against women" is a culturally-contrived phenomenon and the fact that it is so discussed shows how much value we place on the cultural ideology of women.
if women's portrayal for centuries had been rugged, resilient, strong, functional cogs who can gather/prepare food while carrying/nursing a baby at the same time, then "violence against women" would be unheard of, and the whole thing would be lumped in under "violence." but of course, you're gona still put on your lipstick and go out to the club hoping you look sexy enough to men so that they might want to fuck you.
men contribute a social/cultural ideology that is no doubt outdated and ethically unfounded, but women refuse to carve a new image for themselves in the eyes of westerners as well. women are just as much part of this problem as men are.
it has to do with what it because you said men are entirely to blame for the existence of "violence against women." they're not, it only exists because we, as a society (men AND women), want it to; it is 50% womens' fault for holding onto their sexualized image that western society has given them. the majority of women view their sexuality as their primary attribute, which cannot be said for men. stop doing that and maybe this issue will take a turn for the better, that's all i'm saying.
so therefore, calling yourself a feminist and speaking out against something like this while you're putting on makeup specifically to look hot for the guys is extremely hypocritical.
I've read your other posts on this video, and all I have to say is bravo. That's not sarcasm, womin spend too much time on make-up and clothes to lure men into their pants to build up their self-worth instead of building character.
You must first come with statistical numbers to prove you're right, from cientifical competent researchs of course. That's what we do in serious discussion. I'm not saying you're a stupid person, I'm just saying that your vision MAY BE fruit of midiatic hypersposure to violence (of course a news will dedicate much more time with a case of rape in Siberia for example, than with a case of an American couple that lives happy toghether).
eehmmm, I must tell you that my english vocabulary is not very extended. so these words you use... mmm sorry can't recall ever reading them. but you might be right.. only I don't mean anything about that I just mean that in the news you hear a lot of those things... you know?
I live in a third world country where they do not show these types of ads. I wish they did, because people only respond to things when they see it in from of them. Women get beat up, kidnapped and raped all of the time here....and people do nothing, because women are less important than men here.
Even if this ad seems pointless to a lot of people, it would send a powerful message to population of my country. We need to see it here.
why do you write 'a third world country' as if we would all know exactly which countries you mean by that and that all of these countries would be the same.
Can you pls be more specific?
I agree that this is a very strong ad and will hopefully open the eyes of a lot of man and women all over the world!
another tasteless UK commercial about punching women in the face
oh yeah and they want your money too, this is certainly not a fraud or a scam hey I'll send twice the money we'll be doubly protected from the domestic violence ruffians
the statistics show that there are just as many female-on-male domestic incidents, and just as many in gay/lesbian couples. Campaigns like this hurt the cause of domestic violence because they sound like more liberal sixties hippie feminist whining.
all the peeps who think this is sexist is soo wrong and are obviously male. The reason there isn't a campaign to help males is because males are to darn proud to admit to being beaten up by a girl!!! and it hardly ever happens aswell!
According to statistics,in Brazil there's more violence of Women to Men than the opposite (the gravity of the violence was not taken on account). Two possibilities: or the numbers are true, or violence of women to men is socially accepted, and men to women not accepted (so many men would lie in the interviews and women would consider something that may be not vioence in the strict sense of the word but they said as so in the interviews in a signal of proudness)
My mom went through this. It really isn't something to joke about. This ad is I'm sure not meant to be sexist, simply aiming towards women who are in these circumstances. Settle down, they're only trying to help.
Xhosondrugzx, you're too closeminded and arrogant; get off your sexist high horse and learn about respect.
hahaaha i think its hilarious people are getting offended by this ad... women are allowed to hit us but as soon as we hit them we're the ones in the hot seat... I think women get way to many breaks just for being a women. I watched the part with her geting bootfucked like 50 times over and I was still howling! Stupid women... all u do is tease us and give us no output! your purpose on earth is to open your legs and carry the seed of the dominant sex : Men. Bitch I hope u get raped for this ad.
Get a life, get a girlfriend, find a hobbie, make friends (cause lord nows u dont have any) an please stop chattin shit.
P.P.S U did have 1 good point. I myself believe that it is not right for women to hit men, i think that girls should be to (as boys r) from a young age not to hit boys.
Its only human to want to hit some1 after they hit u.
this level of unpravoked violence u seem to enjoy is discusting, from either male or female (an it sometimes happens to men) thats still disgusting.
@Wytchfinde What the fuck are you talking about mate. I replied to this post over a year ago but I know I wouldn't say that. how the hell did you find my comment I wrote it when this first came out (around april 2009). you really sad enough to go through all the comments and read them from that far back. Your a nut case, get a life. And a girlfriend might help.
@Wytchfinde I really ain't got a clue what your on about. I dont think that a man needs a women. Some men need men, some men need both, lol.
I really couldn't care less.
Did you know that this sort of thing happens to men to you know, it's not just one sided. But I wouldn't wish this on either a man or a women.
I don't think your sad cause you aint got a partner. I think your an idiot cause your making a dick of urself by leaving stupid comments that dont make much sense.
@Wytchfinde lol. No I stated that YOU NEED TO GET A LIFE. I dont know what kind form that needs to come in for you, but seriously mate, step away from the computer.
your way to easy to wind up lol.
I wasn't making an argument with you, you're not worth that kind of energy from me.
I just like winding you up, your that gull-able and take things way to personal.
But seriously, unless you've been in this situation yourself, I think its wrong for ANY OF USE to assume anything.
Typical hypocrite. More personal attacks, borderline hostility, having to have the last word, avoiding the subject, embittered and not subscribing to legitimate argumentation.
"YOU NEED TO GET A LIFE"
Sounds like you're the one who is quite "winding" up and "gull-able."
Take your Xanax---and think before you respond again.
If you are this angry online as you are in real life, I bet your domestic situation was not one-sided. Apparently you have anger issues. I'm not being facetious---I'm dead serious.
One more nasty comment and I'm through with you. I don't like verbal, emotional, and physically abusive women.
@Wytchfinde Wrong. I use the name boxergirl. Do you know why? (no I'm not trying to trick anybody) It's quite simple and I'll tell you. When I fist joined YouTube I couldn't think of a name. While singing up to Youtube, I was watching a film callled BoxerGirl staring Michelle Rodriguez (her first staring role). Its quite good, you should check it out.
Never said I was female thou mate, thats what you wanted to believe.
Q's?. U dont think it's odd that no one's agreeing with ur point of view?
xHoEo, you're an embarrassment to men. You're disgusting and pathetic. Please do us all a favour and put your head in your toilet and take a deep breath underwater.
Nothing misoginist in my comment, merely an attempt at breaching the clearly tendentious & weighted attitudes to "wimmens' rights". Being one of the last "fair game" minorities, i.e. white middle class male, I get hacked off with the special dispensations given to stereotypical minorities and abhor violence of any kind; I still consider my comment to be ironic.
P.S. How many feminists does it take to change the proverbial lightbulb? Hey, just one.
Im fully awear i dont spell properly. of all da things that could b of fault with me i think uncorrect grammer is pritty treveal, most doctors i come in contact with cant spell.
I dont think ur as heartless as u try making urself out to b.
I have to say the depressing thing is that there is a higher percentage of abuse in lesbian relationships than in het ones. Of course, since there are less of us that means there are more women abused in hetero relationships in total. It is sad though that something like 1 in 3 lesbian relationships will become abusive. So no, that doesn't protect us either.
You should answer with arguments, boxegirl84, not acting like a child. If your arguments are correct, then nobody can say the opposite, but if you respond in a rude way, then everyone will think you're losing the reason.
I know what you've meant, I'm just asking caution in debating these kind of issues because discussing this way we may associate evil with men and good with women. Sometimes, "the woman just deserves it", we all know the effects of testosterone, and a good man may just go to agression in a rare moment that probably won't repeat again in his life if his wife/girlfriend forces it (the same way he may fight with an old friend). Every case must be carefully analised one by one, just as a normal case.
Sorry, I think I'm talking about a different thing of yours. I'm not talking about the case in the ad, but in general. I don't konw how does it work in the UK, but in Brazil women have the "women's police station" (in literal translation), when a women victim of agression from men can denounce and then put him on jail for up to 2 years, which is much more than a couple weeks in normal law. The problem is the abuse of this privilege, where much women do false denounces. It then becomes a weapon.
Im guessin at first it was used as a way to protect batterd women form men, but then women started to abuse this new power they had, an things become just as unbalanced as they were before, except this time the wieght is on the womens side, right?
Sorry to here that, i do think the law should more balanced for every1.
But i was just talkin bout the add, i didn know anything bout problems 4 men like that in Brazil.
the thing is when its a woman hitting a man, he cant hit back because as soon as he does he is seen as being in the wrong and also the bigger the guy the worse it looks for him, but i do think this ad is v.good, plus they are going to show it like this because statistically, overall it happens to more women than men. its just sick the way a person can treat another, who they supposedly love...
Nice advert, very powerful. Then again, I know a few men who have to put up with domestic violence from women (yes, believe it or not). It would have been nice to see an advert in defence of men too though.
they should start a campaign to end domestic violence against children by women, considering women murder their children all the time.

Abuse goes both ways. Women can be very abusive and cruel too, especially with words. They can tell you the most horrible things and still think they are the victims. I don't approve, but I understand why some women get beaten. Keira Knightley's ad brings attention to the subject, but it's only one sided.

@trollsarevirgins For example, according to the U.S. Department of Justice Bureau of Justice Statistics report published May, 2000- from their data- "in 1998, women experienced at least 900,000 violent offences at the hands of an intimate, and men were victims of at least 160,000 violent crimes by an intimate partner. Their report did not mention emotional abuse, harassment or stalking." Tainted data? Or true?
trollsarevirgins 1 year ago
@YakNarf I would love to see that study because every (non feminist) study I have come across confirms DV to be about equal between male and female victims.
Also keep in mind that men dont report it for fear of social stigma not being believed or the fact that their is nowhere where they can go (DV shelters turn away men) so please provide the link to me because I have a link on my channel to 275 DV studies that confirm women to be equally violent in relationships compared with men.
trueswordsexpert0909 1 year ago
I understand what you mean. Men are also the victims of domestic violence. But, and we have to be brutually honest here, the damage violent women cause to men in no way compares to the damn violent men cause to women. Men are the stronger sex, physically. Most men can defend themselves against a violent partner, but chose not to. Arguably, nearlly all women cannot defend themselves. The bottom line is a man can kill a woman with his bare hands. That's why it gets more attention.

There ought to be an open public inquiry into the function of "women's refuges". These organisations are actually charities with undisclosed government funding. I spent a time in my life as a prisoner inside Maghaberry prison in N. Ireland, this was for putting a short message on youtube where I published the phone number of the refuge in Lisburn Co. Antrim. This was not a private number, it's on their website. I AM A VICTIM OF ABUSE BY the PSNI, the PRISON service all because of my wifes' LIES!

@billyshaw136able. All anyone has to do is watch your youtube videos to understand the type of man you are! Cursing your wife and family publically is not the best way to get them back, neither is breaking court orders! Verbally abusing your family openly on youtube shows everyone why your wife left you, your the only person who cannot see it, verbal abuse is torture to the receipients, stop bullying your wife and accept she has finally wised up to your crap. Good for her!

Lots of women look for abusive partners. They believe that is what "love" really is. They may be abusive themselves. They could be proving that "all men are scum" by dating/marrying abusive men. Or they have victim mindsets that continue this dynamic.
You say, "are tricked by abusive men" but there ARE warning signs. Many women actually chose to ignore them or are screwed up themselves (abusive, manipulative, passive-aggresive, etc).

@sammys70 I've just come out of a domestic violence situation . I do agree that there can be a rush into relationships which was evident with my parents relationship with eight months between dating and marriage. However, this is part of the control. And although you say there are warning signs, often there are not. Sadly, for my Mum, she found out 3 weeks after she was married. He beat her with her shoe. By then, she felt duty bound to stay because of her marriage vows to him. All about control

It's not politically correct to say it, but let's face it---DV situations are often not a one-way street. There are women out there that act like their ex was a monster and she may have been as bad as he was. Plus, there are women that even seek out men like this to confirm whatever psychology they have.

beeing2sharp you're stupid. western society has built up an image of women over the last few centuries as beings valued mainly for their sexual attributes and unable to attain any kind of physical prowess, whose primary purpose in life is to raise the men of the next generation who will make society continue to function. "violence against women" is a culturally-contrived phenomenon and the fact that it is so discussed shows how much value we place on the cultural ideology of women.
habs4life9 2 years ago
if women's portrayal for centuries had been rugged, resilient, strong, functional cogs who can gather/prepare food while carrying/nursing a baby at the same time, then "violence against women" would be unheard of, and the whole thing would be lumped in under "violence." but of course, you're gona still put on your lipstick and go out to the club hoping you look sexy enough to men so that they might want to fuck you.

it has to do with what it because you said men are entirely to blame for the existence of "violence against women." they're not, it only exists because we, as a society (men AND women), want it to; it is 50% womens' fault for holding onto their sexualized image that western society has given them. the majority of women view their sexuality as their primary attribute, which cannot be said for men. stop doing that and maybe this issue will take a turn for the better, that's all i'm saying.

the statistics show that there are just as many female-on-male domestic incidents, and just as many in gay/lesbian couples. Campaigns like this hurt the cause of domestic violence because they sound like more liberal sixties hippie feminist whining.

all the peeps who think this is sexist is soo wrong and are obviously male. The reason there isn't a campaign to help males is because males are to darn proud to admit to being beaten up by a girl!!! and it hardly ever happens aswell!

According to statistics,in Brazil there's more violence of Women to Men than the opposite (the gravity of the violence was not taken on account). Two possibilities: or the numbers are true, or violence of women to men is socially accepted, and men to women not accepted (so many men would lie in the interviews and women would consider something that may be not vioence in the strict sense of the word but they said as so in the interviews in a signal of proudness)

i believe those statistics, its probably da same over here to.
it is SEEN AS more socially acceptable 4 women to hit men because we r still seen as being week. (wich is rong)
From a young age boys r told not to hit girls, but the same rule doesn't get applied to girls (THIS TO ME, IS ALSO RONG)
Its human nature to want to hit back 1's ur hit, i think most men have a hug amount of self restraint.
My dad sure did.

My mom went through this. It really isn't something to joke about. This ad is I'm sure not meant to be sexist, simply aiming towards women who are in these circumstances. Settle down, they're only trying to help.
Xhosondrugzx, you're too closeminded and arrogant; get off your sexist high horse and learn about respect.

hahaaha i think its hilarious people are getting offended by this ad... women are allowed to hit us but as soon as we hit them we're the ones in the hot seat... I think women get way to many breaks just for being a women. I watched the part with her geting bootfucked like 50 times over and I was still howling! Stupid women... all u do is tease us and give us no output! your purpose on earth is to open your legs and carry the seed of the dominant sex : Men. Bitch I hope u get raped for this ad.

Get a life, get a girlfriend, find a hobbie, make friends (cause lord nows u dont have any) an please stop chattin shit.
P.P.S U did have 1 good point. I myself believe that it is not right for women to hit men, i think that girls should be to (as boys r) from a young age not to hit boys.
Its only human to want to hit some1 after they hit u.
this level of unpravoked violence u seem to enjoy is discusting, from either male or female (an it sometimes happens to men) thats still disgusting.

@Wytchfinde What the fuck are you talking about mate. I replied to this post over a year ago but I know I wouldn't say that. how the hell did you find my comment I wrote it when this first came out (around april 2009). you really sad enough to go through all the comments and read them from that far back. Your a nut case, get a life. And a girlfriend might help.

@Wytchfinde I really ain't got a clue what your on about. I dont think that a man needs a women. Some men need men, some men need both, lol.
I really couldn't care less.
Did you know that this sort of thing happens to men to you know, it's not just one sided. But I wouldn't wish this on either a man or a women.
I don't think your sad cause you aint got a partner. I think your an idiot cause your making a dick of urself by leaving stupid comments that dont make much sense.

You keep proving me right----personal attacks, self-righteousness and taking the higher moral ground, and contradicting yourself.
You state to get a girlfriend and then state "I dont think that a man needs a women." You can't even get your argument straight.
Think for a moment before spouting off mindlessly.

@Wytchfinde lol. No I stated that YOU NEED TO GET A LIFE. I dont know what kind form that needs to come in for you, but seriously mate, step away from the computer.
your way to easy to wind up lol.
I wasn't making an argument with you, you're not worth that kind of energy from me.
I just like winding you up, your that gull-able and take things way to personal.
But seriously, unless you've been in this situation yourself, I think its wrong for ANY OF USE to assume anything.

Typical hypocrite. More personal attacks, borderline hostility, having to have the last word, avoiding the subject, embittered and not subscribing to legitimate argumentation.

Sounds like you're the one who is quite "winding" up and "gull-able."

If you are this angry online as you are in real life, I bet your domestic situation was not one-sided. Apparently you have anger issues. I'm not being facetious---I'm dead serious.

@Wytchfinde Wrong. I use the name boxergirl. Do you know why? (no I'm not trying to trick anybody) It's quite simple and I'll tell you. When I fist joined YouTube I couldn't think of a name. While singing up to Youtube, I was watching a film callled BoxerGirl staring Michelle Rodriguez (her first staring role). Its quite good, you should check it out.
Never said I was female thou mate, thats what you wanted to believe.
Q's?. U dont think it's odd that no one's agreeing with ur point of view?
boxergirl84 1 year ago
@boxergirl84
A: Only YakNarf vehemently disagrees with me. And by employing the name boxergirl you do give that impression.
That being said, I have seen the film and it's not bad. A little different than I thought it would be.

Nothing misoginist in my comment, merely an attempt at breaching the clearly tendentious & weighted attitudes to "wimmens' rights". Being one of the last "fair game" minorities, i.e. white middle class male, I get hacked off with the special dispensations given to stereotypical minorities and abhor violence of any kind; I still consider my comment to be ironic.
P.S. How many feminists does it take to change the proverbial lightbulb? Hey, just one.

Chin up darlin, not all women r arse holes.
boxergirl84 2 years ago
I have to say the depressing thing is that there is a higher percentage of abuse in lesbian relationships than in het ones. Of course, since there are less of us that means there are more women abused in hetero relationships in total. It is sad though that something like 1 in 3 lesbian relationships will become abusive. So no, that doesn't protect us either.

You should answer with arguments, boxegirl84, not acting like a child. If your arguments are correct, then nobody can say the opposite, but if you respond in a rude way, then everyone will think you're losing the reason.

@ tgbfdsa...... Not to sure what ur talkin about, i didn make a rude comment to any1.
If i recall, the last comments i made was jus tellin a guy that not all women r arse holes.
and another 1 about how all women have hair on there top lip (cant remember y i said dat 1, never mind)
How u managed to make me out to b rude and childish from dat i dont know.
Some twisted, women hating guy thort da add was funny so i made a sarcastic comment, so what.
boxergirl84 2 years ago
I know what you've meant, I'm just asking caution in debating these kind of issues because discussing this way we may associate evil with men and good with women. Sometimes, "the woman just deserves it", we all know the effects of testosterone, and a good man may just go to agression in a rare moment that probably won't repeat again in his life if his wife/girlfriend forces it (the same way he may fight with an old friend). Every case must be carefully analised one by one, just as a normal case.
tgbfdsa 2 years ago

@ tgbfdsa.......I think now ur the 1 that needs to start pickin there words more carefully.
No 1, deserves that level of a beating especially when it's unpravoct like this scene.
And that applies to both women AND MEN, GAY, STRAIGHT, BI, TRANNIE, CROSS DRESSER, what ever.
where not talkin about a slap, if we was, i would have to agree, sometimes women need 1 back, especially when they strick first.
But we're not talkin bout a little slap, we r talkin bout whats happend in this scene.
boxergirl84 2 years ago
Sorry, I think I'm talking about a different thing of yours. I'm not talking about the case in the ad, but in general. I don't konw how does it work in the UK, but in Brazil women have the "women's police station" (in literal translation), when a women victim of agression from men can denounce and then put him on jail for up to 2 years, which is much more than a couple weeks in normal law. The problem is the abuse of this privilege, where much women do false denounces. It then becomes a weapon.
tgbfdsa 2 years ago
didn realise it was that bad in Brazil for men.
Im guessin at first it was used as a way to protect batterd women form men, but then women started to abuse this new power they had, an things become just as unbalanced as they were before, except this time the wieght is on the womens side, right?
Sorry to here that, i do think the law should more balanced for every1.
But i was just talkin bout the add, i didn know anything bout problems 4 men like that in Brazil.
boxergirl84 2 years ago
the thing is when its a woman hitting a man, he cant hit back because as soon as he does he is seen as being in the wrong and also the bigger the guy the worse it looks for him, but i do think this ad is v.good, plus they are going to show it like this because statistically, overall it happens to more women than men. its just sick the way a person can treat another, who they supposedly love...
greasykebab 2 years ago 2
The latest official UK government statistics show that a man of Keira's age is more likely to be the victim of domestic abuse than a female.
Thus if this video was at all accurate and representative of the truth Keira would be beating up the guy, probably using a weapon.
Then the police would come and he would be arrested.

Nice advert, very powerful. Then again, I know a few men who have to put up with domestic violence from women (yes, believe it or not). It would have been nice to see an advert in defence of men too though.
