Dieselben Kämpfe auf der anderen Seite der Welt


Das ist doch mal ein internationales Zusammenspiel: Zum selben Zeitpunkt, zu dem MANNdat eine Pressemitteilung zum Thema "männliche Opfer von häuslicher Gewalt" herausgibt, tut eine australische Männergruppe auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite der Erdkugel dasselbe. Darin heißt es unter anderem:

They are calling on the media to be aware that crime statistics, based on reports to police, are an inaccurate reflection of the extent of domestic violence within the community, as men who are physically assaulted by women are less likely to report it than are women assaulted by men ..."
