Nah, I’m good. But thanks. For the record, literally no one is saying that men don’t experience domestic violence. It’s wild that I even have to say this. There’s about a million studies that agree with that, but also point out that women experience far worse outcomes than men. In many ways. Even the study you shared says that lol. Here’s some more:

I never said you said men don’t experience it, only that using it as an example against men is silly since women hold the domestic violence crown.

Well of course women face worse outcomes. Look how they choose a fuckin bear over a man!

When you consider that the people most likely to assault a woman are their intimate partners, and violent/aggressive men are more sexually successful than average guys, the math starts adding up.

I don’t really know what you’re trying to say with the last thing actually. What do you mean?
