Women Should Serve Men
Sorry boys this is my misandry page…Look away!
The page below this image includes a series of facts about ‘violence against women’. I will revisit this page updating it with new statistics periodically. I am not sure why I feel the need to collate these somewhere for myself, but I do. Please proceed with caution and care… you are approaching a statistical cesspit that might leave you seething or weeping. Perhaps don’t scroll beyond the beheading if you wish not to have your day ruined.
Only upon writing this warning have I fully realised that the “phrase violence against women” might be the dumbest (or smartest) phrase I have ever heard. As if the violence is falling out of the sky and onto women. It is totally misleading - these stats do not include violence done onto women by women, which is surely still ‘against women’. Woah, What an artful dodging of male accountability!! Now we can talk about male violence towards women without even mentioning the word man or male! I am sure this is great news for accountability and getting to the root of the issue. Rant on the problem with this phrase - and ‘Artificial Intelligence’ coming soon.
