"The majority of contemporary domestic violence advocates can not see male victims because they believe that domestic violence “is” violence against women. They believe that domestic violence is singularly or primarily caused by patriarchal sexism and the power and control men want to exhibit over women.
Once a domestic violence advocate believes that the patriarchy is the cause of domestic violence, and/or that patriarchy is the single or a primary cause of domestic violence, that philosophic belief creates in the mind of that person that they must believe women are victims and men offenders. Hence they believe that domestic violence is not really family violence but gender violence."
==================================================
I tend to think the reason for so much of societies anti-male disinformation is the anti-male disinformation that is taught in all those women's studies programs on America's college campuses.
There are now about 700 women's studies programs throughout America with thousands and thousands of classes. They permeate the entire scope of academia with their politically correct influence, seeking to spread anti-male bias everywhere in education. I attended a seminar put on at UCLA by the women's studies department and remember feeling apprehensive during and afterward. If the misandry they were teaching existed just on UCLA's campus it would be disgusting, but it doesn't just exist there in a vacuum. Students graduate, go out into society and pass along the anti-male bias they have been indoctrinated to believe. If the students are women's studies graduates, chances are they may find employment in the domestic violence industry or some other women's industry endeavor and take their anti-male bias with them. Women's studies teaches that men (the patriarchy) are the problem, and as long as that diseased viewpoint will be infecting so many impressionable young minds, decent men will be hard pressed to call attention to the oppresions that men face in areas where the women's industries have staked out "sacred territory" for women's oppression only.
Your tax dollars and mine go to funding the anti-male political activism and indoctrination that are at the heart of the vast majority of women's studies programs on our college campuses.
Lastly, it is a common women's studies mantra that "Violence is by Men." They ignore valid studies to the contrary, and hang their prejudiced opinions/posters in the hallways of campus buildings asking "What Can Men Do to Stop Their Violence?" I've seen that at a Junior College. If they were to hang a poster that asked "What Can Blacks (or any other group) Do to Stop Their Violence" thereby stereotyping black people like they freely stereotype men, they would be run off campus for being the racist hate mongers they truly are. So how come all our tolerant, liberal campuses tolerate this gender feminist hate movement against men? The Femi Klux Klan is alive and well on a campus near you, and moving into your neighborhood with its hate, if it is not already there.

I found that an interesting read. I should point out that the author is a speaker for Stop Abuse For Everyone, a prominent human rights organization supporting domestic violence services for everyone, regardless of gender.

Jade:
You have some good people in your organization, but you face an industry (the domestic violence industry) that has historically operated in a systematically misandric pattern.
Having seen the pure evil that domestic violence industry has done in the name of the feminist domestic violence agenda, it will be a long, long time before any wise man looks at the domestic violence industry as anything other than the devil's right hand.
What gestures of good will have they extended lately to male victims of domestic violence? Revictimization or further victimization is the only forte I've seen them employ when they deal with a male victim of domestic violence.
Mr. Davis is right to ask, “Does not everyone, regardless of what percentage of victimization they represent, deserve access to support, services or funding? Does not everyone, regardless of age or gender deserve our sympathy and compassion?”
I’m glad that there’s another lawsuit being brought against an agency of the domestic violence industry. Let us hope that the lawsuit will begin to change things so that future victims are not discriminated against because of their gender as so many past victims have been just for being male.
Due to the neglect of the domestic violence industry in regards to male victimization, the victimization of males has been endless.

There is a book, “The Inner World of Abraham Lincoln,” by Michael Burlingame, about the life of Abraham Lincoln. In the book he chronicles the extreme domestic violence suffered by Mr. Lincoln at the hands of his wife, Mary Todd Lincoln. One of the more severe events he describes was when Abe showed up for work as President with a very distinct wound on his head after being clobbered by a piece of firewood. I marked page 277, but I’m not sure that's were this incident is described.
I'm not sure who the guy is in the photo on the lower left of the T-shirt, but I can tell you the photo is taken from a Cival War era "tin." He has that thousand mile stare that a lot of war vets get. He even looks a little like Abe. Have you ever wondered why there's no violence against men act for our returning war vets? 98% of the dead and wounded in that group are men. I wonder if the Marines Corp still tells Marines to "get tough or die?" It is clear that the domestic violence industry is saying that to all men.

Yes, the article made some good points. It questioned womens' right to retain traditional gender privileges even though they have rejected all the burdens and restrictions which have traditionally pertained to the female gender. However it includes the following piece of claptrap:
"In times of strife and danger it has always been “women and children first” and so it should be. I know of no one, man or woman, who would change the time honored tradition of women and children to the life boats first."
As far I am concerned, it's CHILDREN FIRST. After the children, I dont see why any group should have privileged access to the lifeboats based on race, gender, religon, nationality etc. I would , of course, accept privileged access for the ill and mentaly/physically handicapped passengers, irrespective of gender.

I agree with you hotspur. I think it’s contradictory to highlight the neglect of abused men and embrace the chivalry that lies at the roots of male disposability at the same time. The “women and children first” philosophy demands that we neglect suffering males. But otherwise a very good piece.
