'Battered husbands' - still a taboo subject in Poland [387]
Dear me, some very strange views here. Seems that its the least developed of the English speaking world that have ended up in Poland.
Let's go through this slowly:
Some domestic violence is done by men against women.
There is more of this than reported because some women are afraid to go to the police, or stand up for themselves.
Some domestic violence is done by women against men.
There is also more of this than reported, because some men are afraid to go to the police, or stand up for themselves. To add to this, they are ashamed as they are affected by less developed people who say that not standing up for themselves is not 'manly'. That these men may have been abused by their mothers or other females in their youth and therefore find themselves in such abusive situations is beyond them.
Now, feminists like Erin Pizzey know this to be true. For saying such views out loud, she had death threats from feminists, her dog was killed and she has to leave GB.
The situation in Poland is different, as feminism is a lot weaker. While less of the bad sort of feminism would be good for countries like GB, maybe more would be useful here in enabling men to also be empowered.
