Telegraph: "Ich bin ein strammer Kerl – Wer würde glauben, dass ich das Opfer häuslicher Gewalt bin?"

Wie um die mangelnde Qualität deutscher im Vergleich zu britischen Medien weiter deutlich zu machen, widmet sich der britische Telegraph heute den Opfern häuslicher Gewalt, die oft unsichtbar bleiben und keine Hilfe bekommen – den Männern:

"Some victims of domestic abuse are not identified as regularly," reads a line several pages into a new report from a UK domestic violence charity. "Particular groups of victims may be less visible to services or be given less priority."

Along with people from black, Asian and ethnic minority backgrounds, "male victims" form one of these neglected groups, according to the SafeLives study, which was published on Wednesday.

Perhaps this is unsurprising, given that the vast majority of SafeLives’ 35,000-strong database of survivors is female. When we think of domestic abuse it is generally as a women’s issue, while most high profile awareness drives, such as The White Ribbon Campaign, are aimed at reducing male violence against women.

But domestic violence against men is far from a niche concern. The most recent Crime Survey for England and Wales estimated that around 800,000 men – five per cent of the male population – had experienced domestic abuse in 2011-12, compared to 1.2 million women – or seven per cent of the female population. Since about 2005, around 40 per cent of domestic violence victims have been male.

Hier geht es weiter.

Und am selben Tag lässt der SWR jemanden wie Hinrich Rosenbrock erklären, warum Männer als Opfer nicht ernst genommen werden sollten: von öffentlichen Geldern finanzierte, sexistische Menschenverachtung. Manchmal ist es peinlich, Deutscher zu sein.
