Interesting (video, 15 seconds). The poster of the tweet, “Men are Human”, captioned the video with this:
“The assumption is always that you [J4MB: He’s addressing women.] can be violent to men because they aren’t allowed to respond. Abusing this dynamic is how you end up with this.”
Being by nature risk-averse, women tend to confine their violence towards men (and towards women and children) to the domestic sphere. The Partner Abuse State of Knowledge Project (PASK13) was published in May 2013 in the journal Partner Abuse and is the most comprehensive review of domestic violence research ever carried out. This unparallelled three-year research project was conducted by 42 scholars at 20 universities and research centres. The headline finding of the PASK review was that:
“Men and women perpetrate physical and non-physical forms of abuse at comparable rates, most domestic violence is mutual, women are as controlling as men, domestic violence by men and women is correlated with essentially the same risk factors, and male and female perpetrators are motivated for similar reasons.”
A key numerical result from the PASK review was:
“Among large population samples, 57.9% of intimate-partner violence (IPV) reported was bi-directional, 42.1% unidirectional, 13.8% of the unidirectional violence was male-to-female, 28.3% was female-to-male.”
The last point is worth emphasising. In the 42.1% of (heterosexual) couples in which one partner is always the perpetrator and the other the victim, the woman is TWICE as likely to be the perpetrator and (therefore) HALF as likely to be the victim.
A few of the many comments in response to the tweet:
“God put that log right next to him.”
“Women wanted equality so here it is.”
“This is when men take back power from the feminist bullshit!”
“Blame our father‘s generation for letting these women think they are the same as men.”
“…but did she learn anything from this interaction?”
“I was horrified to see a classmate beating the shit out of her fiance one day. I’ve never forgotten.”
“In the last 15 – 20 years the entire education system, every book, every movie, every TV show, every game, the media, and everything else you can imagine has taught women they are our equal physically. This is just one example of so many videos out there just like it. They believe it.”
“How did she not dodge that?”
“Don’t bring a stick to a branch fight.”
“Equal rights and equal lefts? Or maybe we could treat each other with respect? Nah, pass the popcorn, it’s fun watching feminists get what they fought for.”
“Knocked the feminism right out of her. cuuuuurakkkkku!”

Indeed. And most times she’d have been right to think that!

Precisely so. And of course because she came off worse it will be her who is the “victim” and he who is arrested and charged.

I’ve commented a number of times on the large scale research projects, in each of the countries of the UK in the first decade of this century. These followed on from a moral panic in the US about “dating abuse”. They all looked at the 14 to 18 age range. The UK research was all conducted by feminist academics. All found “surprising” findings that boys were more likely to experience physical and mental abuse from their girlfriends. Of course this shouldn’t surprise because one of the deep veins in our socialization is that boys shouldn’t upset or hit girls. Of course these surprising findings didn’t find their way into the Executive Summaries, because they were all funded under the VAWG Strategy.
However in a couple the authors did say that both the extent of female on Male abuse and in particular the expectation, by both sexes, that somehow it is ok for girls to hit boys, should be explicitly addressed in any relationships education. For the reason that girls shouldn’t rely on Male forbearance and willingness to tolerate such abuse, because if the boy’s “snapped” the consequences could be worse for the girls. Of course the issue was thus expressed as all about its impact on girls, not a simple case of being decent to boys, but it had a wisdom to it. I was reminded of this in a recent piece where a “trans man” (getting hormone treatmentbat 30 and sort of experienced Male puberty) describes the uge increase in energy, focus, strength and stamina resulting from her having hormone treatment. Just as the man in this vid picks up and weilds a very much bigger branch.
Needless to say these reports, despite all saying “more research” should be done into boy’s experience, were never followed up on or replicated.
