Men Are Victims of Domestic Violence, Too

Domestic violence the untold story.

I would like to re-write my story, I will post it soon.

DV Against men

I totally agree with all these comments, I too have been falsly imprisoned for two years due to her lieing. Believe me if congress would get there stories streight they might not take sides with women. Hang in there and don't plead guilty too a lesser charge...things get worse on you are considered a criminal and especially for domestic violence convictions finding a job is especially hard...they think your going too beat up all the women who work in a female inviornment.

Domestic violence

Men are abused, and I am a survivor of domestic violence by my now ex-wife. The justice system has done so many injustices agaisnt me that it has tried to destroy my life. I have had 7 animals get killed, brakes cut, gasoline thrown on my house, phone lines cut 26 times and eventually my house burnt with me in it. The justice system here turns it on the man. Men can not be victims, so in turn not only do we as men loose but my 2 boys have too. I have contacted the Senator, Governor and Congressman, but all say that it is out of their hands or refer me to domestic violence shelter or advocacy. How is this bringing awareness that men are victims, when will this stop, what when I am dead. Where is the HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

Where do I turn, what resources is there?

When men are falsely accused of domestic

I've dealt with a very controlling and jealous wife for years. She has called the police several times and I've been arrested and was always found not guilty. Either due to her not appearing at court or either admitting the truth. Never thought it would get to this point. On 7 July 2008 she took it a step further when she decided to make up a horrible incident to the authorities. Am facing several felonies which I didn't committment. I've had to use all of my savings to make Bond and it's like am getting no where. I lost my job for being arrested. I was scheduled to go back in the US Army as a Recruiter but that has also changed due to the arrest and not being able to go in with open charge. She has made up so many lies that it's unreal. I've been discharged from the Reserves and lost another job offer due to me needing to be in the US Army Reserves to have this position. Everything has been turn completely upside down in a day. Have legal representation from a public defender which seems like I'm representing myself. I have everything to support my case but it's like the justice system makes you wait even when they know the warrant as well as the incident report and the victim statement doesn't adds up. I need help if there is anyone able to understand how you came become the victim when they claim you are the suspect.

It is the interesting topic!

The police didn't believe me.

Almost 3 months ago to the day, I called 911 and reported that it was a domestic violence issue. When the police arrived, they arrested me even though my wife had bitten me and hit me with a 15 pound dumbbell. When I told them what happen they didn't believe me. They are attempting to charge me with felony assault. A trial has been set for early September because I refused to accept a plea deal. I refuse to accept responsibility for something I did not do.

My wife has been verbally abusive for years, but it has escalated to physcial abuse in resent years. She has given me black eyes, bloody noses, and fat lips and often done this in the presents of our two children. Since this last incident I have filed for divorce. I am plan to make domestic violence against men an issue that is recognized today. It is all too often not taken seriously and I am fed up with it. I am a medical social worker and when I was in school,domestic violence as it pertained to women was all that was ever discussed. That's a bunch of crap!!! It time to set things straight.

Male victims of Domestic Violence

Although most mainstream feminist groups deny and/or trivialize it (primarily, I believe, because they have built empires and reputations on DV that are threatened by honest discussions, I believe) thousands of acts of domestic violence are perpetrated against men each day. For approx. 25 years, law enforcement agencies, prosecutors and judges have received what is, in effect, political indoctrination on the subject of intimate violence: women are victims, men are perpetrators, perpetrators must be punished.

In CA, in a lawsuit (Woods v. CA) that merely sought equal protection under the law for male victims, a judge ruled that men were NOT entitled to equal protection, forcing the plaintiff(s) to appeal for that equal protection. There is a real and pervasive institutional bias against men, it is factual and not perceived, and that bias contributes to the fact that the vast majority of men do not report the attacks against them.

Those interested in more information can contact the CA Alliance for Families at info@cafcusa.org, or search the web for CAFC or Woods v. California.

Anyone who believes that a 100 pound woman cannot force a 200 pound man to FIGHT to defend himself, has no understanding of violence whatsoever.
