It’s not a double standard, it’s a recognition that a woman is far more likely to end up physically injured than a man.
It’s rather like complaining that certain hiking sites warn against hypothermia when you view them in winter, but not summer. People can still die of hypothermia in summer
It’s treating a minority population of an issue differently. Just because a group is statistically less likely to be impacted doesn’t mean they shouldn’t receive the same resources for help.
Edit: Since the comment I responded to was edited after I commented. Your example of hiking sites doesn’t discriminate against groups of people. It gives the same message for all people.
They are a minority in the statistics being cited here. You’re either not comprehending what the word minority means or you’re purposefully misusing it yourself.
Please explain how they’re correct. Men are the smaller group in the statistics being cited. I didn’t think that majority and minority needed to be explained. It’s not a matter of how the groups are treated. It explains the size of their population.
Physically injured? Sure. But domestic abuse against men tends to be more psychological then physical, so it’s a bit of a bad comparison. And that’s not to mention how the statistics are skewed from men not reporting their problems because it goes against common societal views.
yeah, ironically one of the factor of men being more violent is society don’t showing them, or teaching them, how to cope with emotions in a health way, and the commenter is an example of men being less heard because always someone gonna dismiss the problem, i’m a fully beliver that if men were heard more, abuses toward woman could also fall
So what you’re saying is there’s a minority, with fewer people to turn to, and we shouldn’t help them because there are “more pressing issues”… Please tell me you see the irony?
Wasn’t the whole point the rid the word of that exact feeling of helplessness and isolation?
Statistics don’t make double standards ok.
It seems like you’re attempting to say this kind of thing is ok because “only” 25% of men are victims.
Shameful.
His argument is the exact same argument people use to justify racism.

It isn’t though? The post is advocating that everyone should receive help, while the comment is trying to justify the way it currently is.
You did not just. Lmao.
Get some perspective.
It’s literally the 13/50 shit bro,
“Despite being half of the population, 94% of murder suicides are caused by men.”
That’s what you just said.
That statistic didn’t say anything about the perpetrator’s gender. Stop trying to create controversy where there is none.

This person just called MEN A MINORITY POPULATION
I’M FUCKING DYING 🤣
No, he called men as a percentage of total domestic violence victims a minority pipulation. Your reading comprehension is… lacking.

Somebody can’t read…
You’re totally right of course.
This place is so hilariously extreme it makes Reddit takes look normal.

Yikes. Seek help, please.
It’s actively blaming the man for the woman yelling.
It’s like calling someone a dumbfuck at their funeral for dying of hypothermia in the summer.
If you don’t want male abuse being brought up on female abuse topics, then maybe shut the fuck up about female abuse on male abuse topics.
And where exactly have I done that?
The reply of you that I replied to, towards the guy who replied to someone doing the same thing.
