61% of men who called ManKind Initiative Helpline have said they've never spoke to anyone before regarding the Domestic Abuse they're suffering. 64% of men who called the Helpline said they wouldn't have called if the service had not been anonymous.

It is disgusting that male victims of domestic abuse are being ignored when so much help is available for women. Male victims should get out on the streets with banners declaring that " MEN'S LIVES MATTER -- DON'T STAND FOR DOMESTIC ABUSE FROM WOMEN."
I agree...it is disgusting how men are treated when it comes to DV....I really think that banner would be very affective....
@@OstaraDawn I agree why should men suffer D. V. There is a video called violence when the man abuses his woman the public step in but when the woman abuses her man the public just stare and laugh but if the police were there they would of taken action
There is so much most people are not aware of or don't really understand the truth of what is happening in 2023. We know around 50% of abuse/attacks go unreported due to the shame, stigma and guilt people suffer (there should be no shame of guilt it's the perpetrators that are to blame not the survivors) . Domestic abuse not only effects men and women it also effects the children in them families which can set up the cycle for the children becoming abusers or being abused in their future relationships. We all have to speak out more and know that any kind of abuse isn't ok and with more awareness and support for each other we can make a positive change for all and the future generations.
In England there are over 3000 women's shelters. How many men's shelters are there? 3! Talk about misandry.
And why is Peter Barlow presenting this?
This is so sad. There are men who also get abused and it made me sick.
This is something that is not openly talked about, we need true understanding of the reality of what is happening to men and that's where we can start to make a difference in how we help and support survivors. Open communication with out fear of judgment so others feel they can come forward and seek the help they might need.
Congratulations on your "Domestic Abuse Against Men - Physical And Emotional Abuse" inspirational thanks for sharing. The Police should always know about bullies. 👮.
Emotional abuse is unseen, it's as damaging as physical abuse, they are both as harmful to the individual. Empowering others to know they are worth protecting themselves and it's ok to look for help and professional support. Domestic abuse unfortunately is bigger than we realise and it effects and touches so many others directly and indirectly.
I’m a male victim of domestic abuse… by two separate women… and there is zero help for me. I became a peer counselor to help other men find help… I’m in the US
Sorry to hear you've suffered. In the UK also there is very little help and support for male survivors of domestic abuse. Very empowering that you became a counselor and are helping others. Brilliant.
i was abused by my girlfriend and nobody took me seriously until this year
the fact that this. idea only has 880 views speaks volumes. sorry that happened to you. it happened to me as well
Sorry to hear you've both been through that abuse, I can relate to your suffering as I once dated a narcissist and at the time I didn't know what a narcissist was. The person had made sure people around us had high regarding for them and manipulated they to seeing no bad in them. I started to question my reality and who I was, I ended up calling crisis management which is a 24hr help line for support when your close to the edge, I was very confused and close to the edge. I'm very grateful for their support and help over the new few months received. I spend time speaking with them face to face and working through the trauma of that relationship and also some other traumas that I had suffered but didn't realise the effects it was having on me. We all need help and support at times, there is no shame in that. Life can be hard and have it's difficult times. We also have to remember life can be amazing and each new day brings it's opportunity and joy we can experience. There is light at the end of the dark tunnel. We have to keep going and know better things are out there for us.
Luke 12:2
“For there is nothing covered, that shall not be revealed; neither hid, that shall not be known.”
My ex girlfriend felt the need to ‘punish’ me over very minor things that couldn’t be forgiven by just saying ‘sorry’ such as not personifying a complement or recommendation for a dress she wanted to wear (if I’d been an expert on womenswear that probably would have triggered her also). I would get silent treatments, put in dangerous situations with men that she’d given suggestive glances to when i was out with her. Attacked while i was asleep on 3 occassions with hard shoves and slaps which she would immediately deny when i woke from the violent jolt (gaslighting). The final straw was a hard kick when i was asleep which was as hard as you’d kick a football for a penalty all for making a joke about being my choice to want a baby.
She made me dinner one night and asked me to give her a baby. It had been 10 months of unstable dating where i never felt that we properly knew each other and we’d only got back together after a one month breakup just 3.5 months prior. I refused and she went mental running to her bed and rolling around crying on it like a toddler for at least an hour. 10 months of blocking and stonewalling has followed but to be honest i think it was best to leave as the physical violence could have had the potential to escalate both in frequency and crucially severity.
It was a shame she was very attractive, could cook and had a nice persona (though not character). I felt it could have had soo much potential with her but her childish cruel and punitive mindset was a major roadblock for the relationship to progress and i can’t see it being different for any other man who comes her way. She blamed it all on me not wanting a baby and to move in with her right away but the truth was it was way too toxic for that.
Thank you @ianarn for sharing your story, it's not easy when we experience such pain and abuse both physical and emotional in our relationships. It's not easy to talk about our personal experiences. I hope others find strength and understanding from your story that there not alone when this kind of abuse happens. We hope you find someone who truly values and appreciates you.
I'm definitely not gonna get hit with my so called woman anymore.
Examples like, hahaha you got beat up a by a girl, or she kicked your ass, or you got owned by a chick, you call yourself a man and then there's you're a weak man letting a girl hit you, I am so sick of these gender role stereotypes, let alone these disgusting remarks and laughing at the guy for getting assaulted by a girl, it's sexist, it's not right and what gives her the right to hit a guy, also laughing and mocking a person for getting assaulted is no laughing matter, shame on anyone who thinks it is.
Your right there are many reasons and situations how these kinds of assaults and abuse take place.
Manipulation, fear of responding back due to many other potential consequences that also might affect children/relatives/friends/work, if a person physically responds back. It’s not as simple and as easy as what some people believe it is. Each situation has its own history, variables, others people it can effect and many more areas which might have to be considered. Unfortunately that’s the reality of abusive Relasionships both physically and emotionally.
