    Who considers female on male abuse funny? I have yet too see any feminist, any worker in a shelter, any of those, find any kind of domestic violence funny.

    I’m not talking about Xitter pen keyboard heroes here. I mean real people.

    Who’s laughing at violence against men?

    Taters, conservatives, and their kind, high representatives of the most toxic masculinity.

    You clearly can’t begin to fathom what’s it’s like for people who experienced violence and domestic violence. I’ve never seen a female survivor not listening to a male survivor. I’ve never seen a left wing feminist working with female survivors not taking a male survivor seriously.

    Actually, from my experience, which, I think, is significant at least in my country and generation, they’re literally the ONLY ONES who take them seriously (except some of their close ones, friends and family, of course - not all will, but some may).

      Ime irl, I’d agree with this. Victims usually empathise with me (also victim) and I do with them.

      I’ve never seen a left wing feminist working with female survivors not taking a male survivor seriously.

      I absolutely have. I mean there’s one in this thread first off, but since you said “no onlinesies” as if the people typing on those keyboards aren’t real, many feminists I’ve met IRL actively disdain men and call those that speak about their issues “MRA activists” as a synonym for incel, many say things like “all men” or “not all men but always a man” which lumps me in with the abusers and pretends my rapists are victims. Hell in my area, women can’t be charged with rape because it requires penetration to fit the legal definition, that certainly isn’t “taking male survivors seriously,” and is the left talking about that at all? No, I am the only one speaking out about it, most people around here don’t even know that, go figure.

      Of course yes men don’t take us seriously either, but from my experience only victims care about other victims and there certainly are avowed feminists that not only don’t take me seriously but actively dislike me for speaking about my abuse.
