Damaging feminist disinformation

This large, expensive longitudinal study was launched amid great fanfare with the backing of two government Ministers and numerous other luminaries. Minister for Social Services, Tanya Plibersek, described the high levels of male perpetration as “concerning but sadly not surprising.”

What would surprise our deceived Australian community is the critical missing result - that almost as many men as women report being victims of physical or emotional abuse. That’s the truth that all our key government organisations are very keen to suppress, even though it has been replicated in hundreds of international studies across the Western world. In this country the disinformation campaign has been so successful that news of this common pattern of two-way violence hardly ever makes it onto the public radar.

Consider the fact that this Ten to Men study claimed to be aimed at “filling the gaps in knowledge about why males on average have poorer health outcomes than females, and why certain groups of males have poorer health than males in general.”

How are we filling the gaps in knowledge if we fail to even look at the impact on men’s health of being victims of abuse? Male victims are not even mentioned – contributing to the shame and silencing that leaves these men particularly vulnerable to serious mental health issues.

How’s that for creating rather than collecting data? This doctoring of research to produce only findings that promote men as perpetrators is a shocking betrayal of the ethical standards that once would have been expected from AIFS – but sadly is now par for the course.

The truth is most of our government organisations are willingly allowing themselves to be part of a conspiracy to deny the existence of male victims of violence. Virtually all our government organizations are dutifully promoting this disinformation, with the enthusiastic assistance of our feminist-led mainstream media.

In 2001 Adam Graycar, a former director of the Australian Institute of Criminology (AIC) wrote a paper on young people and violence which included this comment: “Up to one quarter of young people in Australia have witnessed an incident of physical or domestic violence by their father or stepfather against their mother or stepmother.”

What he failed to mention was 22 per cent had witnessed domestic violence against their dads or stepdads by their mums or stepmums – an almost identical number to the 23% figure for the group he was happily promoting.

A quarter of a century later, Australia’s major criminology institute is still singing from the same feminist songbook, focusing obsessively on female homicide victims and denying female violence.

So, if you browse the Institute’s current website to find out about homicide in Australia, the tabs for statistics on this topic won’t give you a broad overview of what’s going on. Instead, you are shown “an intimate partner homicide dashboard” which is all about homicide perpetrated against a female. No mention of dead men. No mention of violent women. Take a look:

It speaks volumes that this is the showcase chosen by AIC for introducing their section on Homicide in Australia, a revelation of their priorities.
