Yes, false allegations do ruin lives. While men are the most common victim, women are also falsely accused. Victims of false allegations to include DV/SA experience suicidal idealation, depression, PTSD, panic disorders, disturbed sleep and loss of self.

Hugely important @YouthEndowFund evidence-based report debunking myths that few teenage boys suffer partner abuse. These facts are deeply worrying. Relationships education must be fully inclusive. No more minimisation because it undermines negative narratives about teenage boys.

It's #InternationalMensDay today so we would like to thank all those men who continue to support our charity with donations, volunteering and moral support.

If you do need support, contact our helpline and/or reach to other helplines. #MenYouAreNotAlone https://t.co/Q1USmhsFB1

[ManKind Initiative @ManKindInit]

We fully endorse this letter and position from Baroness Newlove @VictimsComm. We would like to thank her on behalf of all male victims and survivors of domestic abuse - including their children and families. Alongside all men affected by any form of interpersonal violence.

[Abused Men UK @AbusedMenUK]

Fact is.

@CommissionerDA @womensaid @RefugeCharity @RespectUK @UKParliament @ShabanaMahmood @jessphillips @MayorofLondon @Keir_Starmer

You don't want to speak out about it and want to turn a blind eye and pretend that men are the problem, when over a third of all VAWG victims are actually MALE VICTIMS OF FEMALE ABUSE.

You want to keep giving women funding to keep lying about men and keep funding toxic women who run these organisations that breed misandry.

@notwaving Thanks, I appreciate the thought! I hope you enjoy the book, it's not all misery and anguish - I promise!

[Rob Parkes @RobParkesAuthor]

Weird to see this back on TV. So much has happened since then, I'm thankful to have turned a literal page in our chapter.

[ManKind Initiative @ManKindInit]

Tonight at 9, @Channel4 is repeating the really important documentary "24 Hours in Police Custody - Black Widow" featuring the terrible experience that Rob went through when his ex-wife tried to hire someone to kill him. A highly recommended watch.

We're enormously proud to have been granted Home Office funding to give specialist support to male survivors.

This funding will be used to deliver male-centred services throughout England and Wales, which will begin to address the geographical inequality in what is on offer.

THEM - We need to protect victims of #DomesticAbuse.
ME - I agree. That is women, men and their children.
THEM - Yeah sure there are SOME male victims BUT it's mainly women.
ME - Men are AT LEAST a significant minority.
THEM - Why do you hate women, you misogynistic MRA??!
