    Nae, you do.

    Men are less likely to say they are the victim, specially if the aggressor is the wife. Men are supposed to “man up” if they have problems. Statistics show that women can and are agressors.

    And, most important, just because there might be less men who are victims doesnt mean they should not get the very same help if they need it. Coming around with a shitty “oh, its science!” argument is lame and perpetuates the stupid role model where men are not and cannot be the victim and if that it is not bad because its only a few.

    Any victim, no matter the gender, deserves help, no matter how many there are, period.

      I didn’t ever say men cannot be victims. You’re being intentionally obtuse, , and putting words in my mouth bcz this is an emotionally charged topic for people.
