Agree, but how? It would be helpful to have practical advice on what parts we can all play while also expecting our politicians to address societal factors that are linked to domestic violence.Australian society needs to reduce violence against women.
How does girls clothing or promiscuity contribute in any way to DV?Domestic violence is not just black and white in the sense that it can't be "cured" overnight or in one budget as some think.
If someone I was living with came at me with a knife or bat or whatever, then I would defend myself, however, if that person came at me because of persistent mental abuse and bullying, then what happens to my "self defence", defence?
The only way to greatly curtail DV, we can never completely stop it because f***wits will always exist, but the best way to greatly curtail it is to, of course, make unprovoked DV perpetrators spend years in jail and secondly, there must be a change of attitude where males and females show respect towards one another.
How do we do the second bit considering the enormity of so called "popular" culture, the internet, social media, American style dress and behaviours where young girls dress and behave like escorts and young boys dress and behave like gangsters?
It is unfortunate that some will see education as left wing thought police stuff and others, they'll say that even looking at a woman/girl or a man or a boy in the "wrong way", whatever that is, then that is the pre curser to domestic violence and then, instead of level headed sensible measures, we become sidetracked and nothing meaningful happens.
It is the objectification of females by "fashion" and popular culture and the response to this perceived salaciousness by boys, males as portrayed by popular culture, the internet, rap songs etc that engenders complete lack of respect and the acceptance of violence as "normal" that is having a devastating effect on peoples lives -it is violent.How does girls clothing or promiscuity contribute in any way to DV?
Agreed,The great shame is that there isn't more support. She would have been able to get out and get on with her life instead of facing murder charges. The husband might even have been able to get his own help and survived. Whatever the type of person he was, these things cost the public millions and millions of dollars.
That is incorrect.What I am saying is that boys and girls, men and women, don't know what is acceptable and what is not.
No. It's the radial leftists in government and"educational institutions' who act on their and every other fringe dwellers behalf. You see it everywhere. You know... The social justice warriors. Whether it be climate, Hamas, net zero, trans rights, the voice etc They are not personally involved, but they need to be in control. So they impose their will on everyone else. But none of it actually helps... In fact it has the opposite effect. Thank God the voice failed for example... Had it succeeded it would have further marginalized and divided indigenous people from the rest of society.
Anyway that's my view. You can have your opinion. I left Australia 35 years ago to live on am island... With Bitcoin. I am beholden to no government.
Not your particular contributions Chief, as in what the law states and the horrid examples.That's what you read into it.
Well that's a reflection on you then.I don't agree, as discussed earlier.
Oh come on Chief, stop living in some parallel universe. If you reckon that the youth of today are free from influence, just think back to your youth. I don't know what your age is but for me and those in and around my vintage, we did not have the world wide web but we had music, telli, magazines, fashion and we were all influenced by those things.Generalise much??
I actually like that a lot more. It's inclusive rather than exclusive; it's not 'men', it's everyone.Australian society needs to reduce violence against women.
... this appears to be an 'all lives matter' take. That would be an exceedingly weird direction to try and deflect domestic abuse towards.Is it possible to make a concerted effort to reduce and stop all violence, not just what has be termed gendered violence?
Yeah sooooo weird.... this appears to be an 'all lives matter' take. That would be an exceedingly weird direction to try and deflect domestic abuse towards.
It would, because it conflates different problems together. It equates the problem with domestic violence and gendered violence with all violence, from assault right up to war; the arguments for and against are changed, because they have to be in order to argue about a different thing.Yeah sooooo weird.

You cease arguing about oranges -as it ceases to be an orange to orange comparison - and begin arguing about consumption.
This line of thought would have us dissolve all threads on the SRP and open a single one, called 'Issues'. It's not conducive to conversation or problem solving. It is by nature reductive.
