To all the men on the internet commenting under posts about male violence against women - saying that men are more likely to be victims of violence, you are absolutely correct.

Men are much more likely to be murdered than women.

Men are much more likely to be assaulted than women.

Men are much more likely to be mugged than women.

Men are much more likely to be attacked in bars and clubs than women.

1 in 20 men are sexually abused in childhood.

And guess who 97-99% of the suspects are in those crimes?

Other men and boys.

And so, I return you to the original point about MALE VIOLENCE.

Male violence is the issue. Women and girls are absolutely capable of the same levels of violence and abuse as men and boys, and yet, they don’t commit it.

So let’s focus on the point, which is male violence, and as you quite rightly point out, is also seriously impacting yourselves.

@PaulCBrunson There are quite a few things, but one simple one would be to explore what are the qualities, traits etc in Jess he is so drawn to and make sure he looks and asks for those in his future dates

Winter can trigger feelings of sadness and fatigue as we experience shorter days and colder nights.

UKCP psychotherapists @fejrobinson and Julie Dearden offer advice in their blog about coping with the winter months. Find it here: https://t.co/fNnat2sURb #WinterBlues

[Flo @Flozephine]

@PaulCBrunson Also emotional abuse, gaslighting etc are also predictors

@samaritans @WestBerksPH I wonder how many years that equals volunteer time ? 🙏🏻 huge congrats - it was such a privilege to be a listener, one day I hope to return 🙏🏻👌

When we don't talk about child sexual abuse, who are we really protecting? The taboo only ever serves the abusers. We need to break the secrecy, silence and stigma: it's the abusers' shame, not ours. More: https://t.co/KQntKFnvqr

@cazbinny Have to say it was quicker to eat the cake than read the book too 🤪

@MartinSLewis @bbc5live Jacket potatoes- cook more than you need and chop rest up to go in omlettes or salads - start in mircrowave, finish in oven, and optimise the oven going on by cooking other things that can be used in other dishes

@TVKev I’d like to see the science that proves ‘climate claptrap’ is just that please …

[Carolyn Spring @CarolynSpring]

We can be so ashamed of anger, feeling there is something wrong with us for being angry, and so stuffing it down. But often it's a natural response, and serves a purpose in relationships.
Read 'Shame is the handbrake on anger': https://t.co/io3a9CYGG8

@Channel4 in celebrity detox you have ‘Julia’, a ‘licenced therapist’, since we don’t licence therapists in the Uk can you explain this as it could be very misleading? #celebsdetox

[Flo @Flozephine]
