domestic violence

" I believe you" ........"It is not your fault"............"It looks like your eye is black & blue".......

As a male, you can have a powerful influence to reduce violence; e.g. by example, by speaking out.......

In the US, there are 3x as many animal shelters as there are battered women's shelters.

The most common source of injury among women is "physical abuse by male partners".
