Increase resources to prosecute men guilty of violence against women
Violence can come in different forms. And violence does not select its victim, so both men and women are victims.
Two causes of violence against women are; 1. Influencing men to be violent toward the woman, and 2. Positioning women toward being victimized with violence.
I am a man and I believe that violence is out of the question, be it against man or woman. Everyone has the responsability to control themselves. I think there are no excuses to display violence. Many women who are victims of violence tend to think they deserve it for any reason. NO ONE DESERVES VIOLENCE. If you are victim of violence seek help with friends, family AND the authority. Hope that helps.
Men are much stronger than women and yes, abusive women out there can be just as violent because they are much more sneaky about violence towards their mate and some women have been known to hire someone to 'get rid of their husbands' (do their dirty work for them) but on the whole, there are more men that abuse women.
Nobody, women, men or children should suffer violence against their person in our (so called) civilised society. Violence in any form is a crime and should be stopped.
