6oodfella: Men And Women Are Held To Different Standards #13 (Layla Moran MP)

Our thanks to Sean for this (video, 51:17).

Yesterday Elizabeth posted a link to hequal’s excellent commentary on the Layla Moran MP story – here. The Sun covered the story, here. An extract:

Tory MP Philip Davies told The Sun: “Domestic Violence is completely unacceptable irrespective of whether the man or woman is the victim or perpetrator.

“However, I suspect the reaction of some MPs would have been rather different if it had been a male MP admitting domestic violence against a woman.

“These double standards are not acceptable and I trust that the feminists in Parliament who campaign on the issue of domestic violence speak out about this. I am not holding my breath.”
