Abusegate: Most Americans Aware of Male DV Victims
Submitted by Matt on Thu, 2010-01-14 21:49
From MANN reader Ed:
The great majority of Americans are aware of the problem of male victims of domestic violence. According to a 2006 Harris poll*:
88% of Americans have seen or heard of a male domestic violence victim in the past year 76% of Americans believe domestic violence against men is a “serious” problem.
But representatives of the domestic violence industry work night and day to deny the very existence of male victims. One almost comes to admire the intellectual gymnastics of the VAWA Mafia.
*See Tables 1 and 3.
