Letter To Editor: 'Women are also guilty'

Letter here. Excerpt:

'Ms C Springer, your Editor, from her chair in the newsroom asserts for my instruction that “domestic violence exists in all races, classes and in every sector of society.”

What she seems unwilling to conceive of, or incapable of conceding is that domestic violence exists in all “sexes/genders.” To make it clear, women are also guilty. This is the point of my letters. This is what, as idea, she finds offensive. Ms Springer needs a triumphant victim (woman) on one side and a diabolised victor (also essentially victim) on the other. That this position that I have expressed represents “an outmoded and bigoted” attitude contributing to perpetuating the problem is how Ms Springer responds to the threat to extending her all-embracing domestic violence victim categories to include men.'
