47. Not An Even Playing Field one of the most controversial questions in the study of intimate violence is beingdebated Is domestic abuse a war against women or are men battered just as http://www.serve.com/zone/everyone/gelles.html

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE: NOT AN EVEN PLAYING FIELD By Richard J. Gelles The highly publicized O.J. Simpson case has spawned a flurry of stories in local, national, and international media, all focused on pieces of the domestic violence puzzle. In fact, coverage of the case has become the battleground on which one of the most controversial questions in the study of intimate violence is being debated: Is domestic abuse a "war against women" or are men battered just as much as women? We know that there are two to four million women battered in the United States each year. At least half these women fight back and defend themselves, and about 700 times last year, women killed their husbands or partners. My estimate is that there are about 100,000 battered men in the United States each year - a much smaller number than the two to four million battered women - but hardly trivial. Despite the fact that indeed, there are battered men too, it is misogynistic to paint the entire issue of domestic violence with a broad brush and make it appears as though men are victimized by their partners as much as women. It is not a simple case of simple numbers. The media, policy makers, and the public cannot simply ignore - or reduce to a parenthetical status the outcomes of violence, which leave more than 1,400 women dead each year and millions physically and/or psychologically scarred for life.

Battered Men? Battered Facts EXTRA! Update, October '94 Husbands are battered as much as wives in the U.S.? John Leo, syndicated columnist, is sure of it. "There's no doubt about this," Leo said as a guest on CNN's Crossfire (7/2/94). "It was established in 1980 by a female researcher." When co-host Michael Kinsley asked him if it seemed plausible that women were as violent as men, Leo dismissed the question. "We don't have to cogitate this," he said. "The evidence is in. All these studies have established this." Leo is not alone in insisting on parity between battered men and battered women. Domestic violence "is not either the man's fault or the woman's," Judith Sherven and James Sniechowski wrote in an L.A. Times op-ed (6/21/94). "Both the male and the female are bound in their dance of mutual destructiveness." "Why do we protest domestic violence against women and not even know about violence against men?" men's advocate Warren Farrell wrote in a USA Today column (6/29/94), arguing that women's violence is as bad as men'sif not worse. Alan Dershowitz, part of O.J. Simpson's defense team, used his syndicated column (

Table of Contents Section 1: Why do people stay in abusive relationships? Section 2: Statistics on Domestic Violence Section 3: Online Domestic Violence Resources Section 1: Why do people stay in abusive relationships? A person looking at an abusive relationship from the outside tends to ask one major question: why does he/she stay? Although the idea of walking away from a relationship seems easy enough, it isn’t for a victim of domestic violence. Here are a few common reasons that victims of domestic violence stay. FEAR - Fear is a common emotion expressed in an abusive relationship. If attempts are made to remove themselves from that situation, the retaliation from their abuser can be horrible. So, instead of trying to change things and risk being hurt more, the only option left is to stay. ISOLATION - An important tactic used by an abuser is isolation. Turning the victim against their friends and/or family makes them an easier target. If the victim has no one to turn to for help, then their only option is to stay.

Men Who Beat the Men Who Love Them: Battered Gay Men and Domestic Violence Violence is a state of mind, a way of being, but most of all, violence is a sickness! Gerald G. Jampolsky and Diane V. Cirincione's Love is the Answer: Creating Positive Relationships Holy relationships are based on the laws of love rather than the laws of the ego. They are relationships where two minds are joined as one, with the shared intention for living by the principles of giving, joining and forgiving, and where both will become one with God. In holy relationships, both people see the light of love in themselves, each other, and in other people equally. Their lives are based on the belief that our natural state is one of love, and there can never be any scarcity of love. In holy relationships, there is a willingness to live without attemtping to control, manipulate, dominate, demand, or possess any other person. It is a relationship where trust and equality replace selfishness, jealousy, competition, attack and defense. It is a relationship where each person's growth, individuality, and independence are fully supported, and where both people are filled with the fire of compassion for this planet, this universe, and for all that life is. It is a relationship where there is only unconditional love, where two souls come together as one, bringing light and healing to the world around them. It is a relationship where interest in the other person's welfare is equal to interest in oneself. It is a relationship based on unconditional love and forgiveness, excluding no one from that love.
