I appreciate you owning up to the fact that this study does not say what you claimed it did. I have a hard time believing it could have been misread as such regardless of local time or eyesight, but at least we’re on the same page.
I don’t know why you’re acting as though I said men have never in all of history stood up for women. I’m not making that case. I just don’t have a reason to believe that makes up a majority of man on man violence. How many times have I seen that vs how many times have I seen two men fight over a spilled drink or a parking space or some other frivolous thing. I don’t think the evidence is there to suggest that man on man violence is somehow secretly also the fault of women, which seemed to be that persons point.
Not sure you realize it was me you responded to elsewhere in this thread, but since you accused me of essentially patronizing you, I won’t make any comments about your personal situation. I only note that because you brought it up, and I’d hate to have you point to me not mentioning it as some lack of empathy.
Man I should’ve read further before I read that whole study. 29 cases, 9 of which were forced marriage by family because the man was suspected to be gay… for sure not what that comment had me expecting. Glad they owned up to it.
Did you read case 16? The point of the study was to talk about male victims of violence, but then case 16 is that his family was mean to him, then kidnapped the girlfriend they didn’t approve of. Jesus Christ. Definitely not what I was expecting.
Yea, unfortunately I read the whole study out of good faith. It’s wild that comment has as many upvotes as it does, but just goes to show how little people actually care about the truth and how ready they are to accept anything that purports to back their own claims. Or hopefully that Lemmy is being astroturfed already and no one actually believes that, they’re just sowing division.
Every case is just gross and a great example of how patriarchy harms men. I can’t believe people think that they can marry off their disabled son and they’d just be effectively cared for by their new wife. Heartbreaking. I can’t imagine effectively telling my child I’m sick of caring for them so I’m just giving that responsibility to someone who they don’t know and who’s being forced to care for them with no training or presumably forewarning.
