What About Us, We Are Victims Too! Krystie Love

WHAT ABOUT US, WE ARE VICTIMS TOO! We are MEN! Men Who Are Victims Of Domestic Violence! Did you know that men are victims of domestic violence? Over the years, victims of domestic violence have been what society has stereotyped as women who are abused by their intimate partner. Many resources (shelters, counseling, and crisis hotlines, etc.) have traditionally been geared toward women and not men. If a woman calls a shelter for emergency housing, she will more than likely be housed; however, if a man calls that same shelter, he may be laughed at, made fun of, ridiculed, or simply labeled as the abuser. After all, how can a strong man be abused by a defenseless woman? Many men tend to ask WHAT ABOUT US, WE ARE VICTIMS TOO! And they are right; men are being abused by their intimate partner in startling numbers and have been for years.
