Macy's National RESPECT! Campaign: no mention of female DV perps

Article here. Excerpt:

'SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 18, 2008--On Friday, September 19, the Family Violence Prevention Fund (FVPF) and Macy's will ask the nation to join in marking the first annual National RESPECT! Day(SM). A newly designated observance, National RESPECT! Day will launch a multi-year movement, in partnership with Macy's, designed to raise awareness of domestic and dating violence and to encourage positive discourse about prevention by teaching respect.
...
For more than two decades, the Family Violence Prevention Fund has been one of the world's leading organizations working to prevent violence against women and children. Instrumental in developing the landmark Violence Against Women Act passed by Congress in 1994, the FVPF has continued to break new ground by reaching new audiences including men and youth, promoting leadership within communities to ensure that violence prevention efforts become self-sustaining, and transforming the way health care providers, police, judges, employers and others address violence.

Go to endabuse.org, the cited URL for the campaign-- not a thing would lead you to think they're even remotely aware of female DV perpetration.

Hi,Matt, this is Dave, I have been working on this story since I saw a full page ad in the New York Times and a smaller ad in the New York Daily News from Macys detailing this program. I have been in contact with Macys people in Atlanta and New York all the way up to the presidents office making them aware of our feelings. I am still trying to talk to Terry Lungdren, the president of Macys but I have spoken to people in his office. The general number for the store is 212 695 4400 and more direct numbers are 212 494 5580,4943803 and 4947284. Let our voices be heard and call them now to let them know where we stand. Thanks, dlr1943@aol.com

It appears the organizers of this campaign aren't aware that women commit more child abuse than men. These "women" are also using "children" to get more extra special "respect" for themselves. I consider this exploiting of children to be another form of child abuse. This claim of victimization of women and children is a typical means to marginalize men as violators.

WOMEN, BY FAR, ABUSE AND MURDER MORE CHILDREN IN US HOMES THAN ANY OTHER PERPETRATOR.

Guys, you need to bookmark these links for future reference. These images need to be faxed to the folks at Macy's - as they are being lead around by the nose.

If feminists Obama and Biden are elected I wonder if they will install feminist statisticians at the HHS Administration for Children and Families to replace these facts with misandrist propaganda.

Blar, I reread my post and it did come across overly negative, my bad I was wrong to be so harsh. It's just that its four days between stories since the gum one and there have been several stories that are relevant since them. A few I have submitted, two stories about male suicide and few others.

This is my personal bias as an individual that reads a lot of history and philosophy; however, if men want to truly understand the mess we are in today regarding feminism, then events that happened way back in the 1920's are still relevant.
