      Apparently I derail conversations abt VAW if I point out the claim that you're more in danger of violence if a woman is factually wrong.

      The argument that there's considerably more violence against women by men than other way round indicates a misogynistic culture doesn't work

      When violent men are so much more likely to attack other men. You can't just take the stats you want & ignore the rest.

      Not sure how "more VAW by men than the other way around" argument about misogyny gets canceled out by "more violence by men against men"

      For example, the textbook old fashioned wife-beater... didn't necessarily hit his boss or coworkers...

      Why do you say that? If a man only hits women, it could well be misogyny but violent men tend to be violent generally.

          It need not be so black and white. The % of hitting incidents against members of this or that category could say/suggest something...

          Following your lead here, stats would suggest that men have a deep hatred of other men and like women a lot better.

          Yes, that was a non-sequitur, for exactly the same reason as misogyny to explain vaw is a non-sequitur.

          Oh I agree. Men are always the more violent sex, for evolutionary reasons. But the violence is overwhelmingly aimed at other men.

          Replying to @BristolBen @IIlIIlIIlll and

          Male violence against women is much lower, and about equal to female violence against men.
