    This group is a hub area to collect various psychology related threads, such as research and study results or interesting blogs/pictures, though other academic discussion (sciences, politics, sociology, anthropology, etc) is allowed and encouraged. Also mini-essays and question posts may make an appearance from time to time. Anyone can join, but only a few can post public topics. Check your opinions for others at the door and keep things civil.

When it comes to cases of serious abuse in a relationship, men comprise 40% of the victims. [url]http://domesticviolencestatistics.org/men-the-overlooked-victims-of-domestic-violence/[/url] [quote] Domestic violence is considered one of the most pressing issues in American society. Everyone quotes the statistics given by the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence: 1 in 4 women will be victims of domestic violence at some point in their lives, 1.3 million women are assaulted by their partner every year, 85% of domestic violence reported is against women. However, in a conflicting survey taken by the CDC in 2010, [b]it was found that 40% of the victims of severe, physical domestic violence are men.[/b] [/quote] [quote] What is worse than the statistics, however, is the fact that there has been little research in the area of domestic abuse against men because neither the Justice Department nor any other agencies will fund such research. Because they refuse to do the research, people are able to perpetuate such myths as women are only violent when defending themselves, or that men could more easily leave a violent relationship. Because of lack of funding, there are also few shelters that cater to men. Most shelters available will only take women and children, and some even have an age limit on the boys that they will take in (13 years old). [/quote] What do you think about this? Do you think men are just as much victims as women are in abusive relationships?
