| Notes | |
| Age Rating | 15 (strong footage/language, possibly including violence and sexual imagery) |
| Synopsis | The Duluth model is a commonly used reference tool used by various agencies, including government, which asserts that men are violent and aggressive towards women and dominate women in society. This model is applied to all men regardless of upbringing or circumstances. This film examines this model to see if the idea that only men are violent and that women are perpetual victims holds water. • Women’s violence to children • How men are raised and conditioned, and the values they are taught • DV and powerlessness • The flaws in the common understanding of the causes of DV |

When I have asked the question why do lesbian women inflict such frequent domestic abuse on their partners? The answer is often that these women have higher levels of testosterone. Testosterone is a useful get out clause and is often described as a form of poison within the male. However, that does not explain why gay men also beat each other on a regular basis despite the fact that it is known that gay men have lower levels of testosterone than heterosexual males or lesbians. Did Boy George batter his partner and get sent to jail because of “testosterone poisoning”? No!
I think those women slapping men and each other are suffering from Oestrogen poisoning
Hello, i remember i have seen a video somewhere that talks about the misandry on tv and movies, where women seems to be better and superior and beat men on fighting, intelligences, etc… enhancing female image and sense of superiority over male, for example i remember some cut scenes about terminator 3, but i’m not totally sure if that video were made by you, please could you help me?? im really need it as soon as possible, i would apreciate your promt response.
thanks in advance!!
Misandry – Misogyny 1
It’s sad how we can create excuses for people’s behavior like this. I don’t approve of violence against anyone unless it’s in self defense. Every time I see a woman get off the hook for a serious crime, and a man torn down for something as simple as disciplining their child–I die a little inside. If someone does something wrong, that person has a problem. It’s not a problem with the gender as a whole.
That’s not the question! The question is: what are you doing personally against those double standards discriminating men?
Thank you so much for your answer!
I think the blowback of all this might occur where if a man is forced to defend himself from a woman, he will have to kill her. Why not? The instant he strikes back his life is over; everything he built in his life is over. So once that threshold is crossed, what choice does he have? If he kills her, there is a chance (better than one might think) that he’ll never be caught. It’s a risk he might be more willing to take.

I remember that I once got attacked by a female tramp in a city in Germany. I didn’t want to give her money and pushed her away as she came close to nose-length. She then presented a long bread-knife and I ran for my life. Fortunately I saved myself in a police car after a minute. The adviced to sue her immedeately since she was wellknown for her violence. After 6 weeks the prosecutor dropped the case as a minor incident.
