The numbers are pretty much a consensus among researchers. If you disagree, then the burden is on YOU to do a deep, critical analysis. I’m just reporting the conclusions of others, not doing any critical analysis. If those conclusions make you feel uncomfortable, maybe you should explore that feeling more. Although if you want to do a critical analysis, I’d welcome it.
Well, you’re really just throwing out what-ifs. But you happened to chance on one theory that some researchers think could partially explain the discrepancy:
Being bi or lesbian still comes together with a special type of discrimination that a straight woman most likely will never experience;
Being oppressed causes stress, stress causes lack of control. The idea is it’s a similar driver to why poorer couples have higher rates of abuse.
That’s probably not the SOLE cause, but it’s likely a factor.
Just because someone was victimized doesn’t mean every thing they do afterwards is a smart idea. It’s a fundamentally flawed approach and her being a victim doesn’t change that.
There’s 4 billion men on the planet. If you want to find men with 3 arms, you’ll find a lot of them.

You’d be banned faster than trying to say “Tiananmen” on grad
If you happened to go in there and speak against them, you’d just be banned and have your post removed.
Statistically, lesbian relationships are far more likely to be abusive than hetero ones.

I just want to compliment you for spelling and using “kowtow” correctly
More salient takeaway is, don’t use a LLM to translate a scientific paper. Because it can’t translate a scientific paper. It can only rewrite the entire paper, in a different language. And it will introduce misunderstandings and hallucinations.
if you actually believe the fox news ass all men are rapists line
I heard that first-hand from women on this site.
you wouldn’t argue if I said all bears are dangerous
Yeah no shit, that’s the point.
I was referring to IRL safe spaces and support groups.
Making men’s spaces online specifically has the dual problem of being attacked by both misogynists and radical feminists. It’s a lot of work and a lot of hate to deal with, so they don’t pop up a lot. But yes, they do exist, there’s a semi-active menslib community on lemmy for example. I think that one veers way too heavily into the “us men are really awful aren’t we?” feminist takes, personally; the reddit one was a lot better.
no one is saying all men are rapists
You know that’s not true.
You know that’s not what I’m talking about.
Man, I have been in SO MANY internet arguments where I am simultaneously arguing against a woman that yes, men have problems, while also arguing against a man that no, those problems are not worse on the whole than women have.
Back when the whole “bear in the woods” thing was going around misogynists would try to jump in and support me.
Woman: “all men are rapists”
Me: “that’s insulting and hurtful and misandrist, and also not even close to true”
Misogynist: “Yeah! And also women are heartless bitches!”
Me: “I don’t remember asking YOU a goddamn thing”
Men don’t always isolate by choice. There’s a large cultural aversion to creating and sustaining male-only spaces, and that aversion comes from all sectors.
Every college campus has a women’s club but if you try making a men’s club you’ll probably get reprimanded.
Lemmings don’t really like when people argue against the majority opinion, on any topic. The Fediverse is incredibly tribal.
