There’s One Word That Describes the Feminist Push to Vilify Men as Abusers

July 18, 2024 – Last week Kenya Tilford, 29, was charged for the gruesome torture and strangulation of her girlfriend, Concetta Morton. Charges against Tilford include murder, concealment of a human corpse, and more (1).

The shocking murder of Concetta Morton highlights two facts that scientists have known for decades: Women are as likely as men to engage in domestic violence (2). And in the case of lesbian abuse, the severity of the violence escalates dramatically (3).

But feminists have launched a global campaign that inexplicably denies these facts, and seeks to stereotype men as the abusers:

Australia: New South Wales has just launched a campaign to stop coercive control, a form of emotional abuse commonly referred to as “nagging.” The Australian Bureau of Statistics reports that “women and men reported experiencing similar rates of emotional abuse by a current partner.” (4) But the new government campaign blithely ignores the existence of male victims (5).

Italy: After billboards were placed around Naples that publicized the plight of male victims of domestic violence, dozens of feminist groups accused the public awareness campaign of being an “attack on women” and demanded its removal (6). In support of the billboards, an online petition was then launched, which has now been signed by over 2,900 persons (7).

United Kingdom: Last month an article was published by Big Issue that highlighted the plight of “Max,” who endured years of emotional abuse: “I felt alone. I felt ashamed, even though it is nothing to be ashamed of. It eats you away. I felt isolated. You don’t eat, you’re not sleeping. You can’t shake it.” (8) Ignoring this heart-rending testimony, groups such as the SHERA Research Group flatly deny the existence of female-perpetrated abuse (9).

United States: Last week the Journal of the American Medical Association released a report titled, “Essential Care for Women Experiencing Intimate Partner Violence (10).” The article made no mention of female-perpetrated violence or their male victims.

These global feminist efforts are being orchestrated by UN Women, which stubbornly refuses to acknowledge the existence of female perpetrators of domestic violence (11).

Regarding the maltreatment of children, mothers are far more likely than fathers to be the perpetrators. Globally, mothers commit 72% of infant homicides (12). In the United States, the federal government reports these numbers: Child victims abused by the mother: 210,746; Child victims abused by the father: 132,363. (13)

But comfortable in their denial, feminists such as the United Nation’s Reem Alsalem refuse to even acknowledge the problem of female perpetration of child abuse (14).

There’s a word that describes a crusade that seeks to vilify an entire class of persons as abusers: “Evil.”

Given the global reach of the disinformation campaign and its harmful effects on men, women, and children, one could rightfully ask, “When will members of the mainstream media begin to expose the fraud?”

The Domestic Abuse and Violence International Alliance – DAVIA — consists of 149 member organizations from 37 countries in Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, Latin America, and North America. DAVIA seeks to ensure that domestic violence and abuse polices are science-based, family-affirming, and sex-inclusive. https://endtodv.org/davia/
