@jan_murray Your hypocrisy is staggering. So kids can see loving opposite sex couples and parents every day, yet knowing that same sex couples and parents exist is somehow โtoo adultโ? Should those families stay out of public view because you do not see them as normal? That is your logic.
Happy your new research paper is published on gay menโs experiences of recognition, help seeking and disclosure of intimate partner violence.
Information a barriers and facilitator framework for policy and practice.
