Abstract

In a paper published a few days ago it was found that people - especially women - are more willing to accept men being harmed than women being harmed. Many people won’t be surprised by this – they might even find it obvious - and lots of people will think there is nothing wrong with it. After all, men are traditionally the protectors of others, even said to be more disposable than women and children, and although these are painful ideas for some people, a long history of nature and nurture seems to underline this point. Even today, we see that even though men make up at least a third of victims of domestic violence, male victims often go unrecognised and unsupported, as demonstrated by the UK government which “categorises violence against women and girls as a national threat” but struggles to even compile the most basic statistics on male victims.
