Article here. Excerpt:

'Today is a very important day for all victims of domestic violence. Today marks the coming of age of the male domestic violence sector in the UK says Glen Poole of equality4men.

The MARS Conference Centre in Slough may seem like an unlikely place for a revolution brothers (and sisters), but that’s where dozens of men and women will be gathering today for the Second National Conference on Male Victims of domestic abuse, hosted by the charity The ManKind Initiative.

For those unfamiliar with the politics of the domestic violence sector let’s give you a bit of background. There is a global movement working to tackle the problem of domestic violence from a feminist perspective that is held together by the United Nations, the European Union and the public and charity sector at a national and local level.'

This is awesome for two reasons

1. It's fantastic to raise recognition that men are subject to this type of violence

And

2. This shows two organisations one supporting men's rights and one supporting women's rights working together supporting each other on these types of issues affecting both genders. I believe that is the only real way we are going to make true progress in a lot of these issues is by trying to work together as much as possible.

Sadly with a lot of feminists groups they seem to lack the intelligence and will power to actually want to make progress, and they spend way too much time going around spouting man hating bullshit.
