Use your brainpower and consider that a TV show can draw upon REAL stories and still not be indicative of typical experiences encountered by the overwhelming majority (>99%) of people. It's a TV show. It's pulling in extremes to draw in gullible, low-brain-activity viewership like you.

In 2024, 81% of homicide victims were men. There were 3538 women killed, which is 0.001% of the population. In the grand scheme of things, pretty minimal. But by all means, go ahead and make a decision based on a 0.001% chance of getting killed by a man when men themselves are at significantly higher risk of getting killed by a man.

On DV offenders, I think they just need to be castrated and thrown away. Cultural and structural problems need to be fixed that cause horrible men to become that way.

You keep coming back to homicide alone, that isn’t the only metric to consider. We are speaking about violence against women as a whole, including things outside homicide.

I agree violence against women is a much more widespread problem, and I acknowledge the horror of the 1-in-6 stat. It's an education and culture problem, but there are many men who are too far gone. There are also many, an overwhelming majority, of men who won't SA or kill you.

The problem is the bad men hide it, so we can’t actually know who’s a good man and who isn’t. I do not want to put myself in danger of being harmed by them in any form or fashion, so I do not want to date any more of them. Why does this get so majorly triggered?

Then don't. It's your risk calculation. Let normal people date, get married, and live happily ever after. If you want to die alone because you're scared of taking on a risk with someone, vetting them, cutting things off when things don't feel right, then that's your decision. You clearly don't have the capacity for it.

I mean, from the CDC stats, lifetime IPV (rape, physical violence, and/or stalking by an intimate partner), bisexual women report 61.1%, lesbians 43.8%, and heterosexual women 35%. So the data doesn't really back up that lesbian couples are a "safer" option.

And 90% of bi women experience violence from men, the real question to determine how this compares to straight relationships is how many people were included in each statistic, as you point out earlier with homicides. Not only that, but you also have to consider the amount of straight women who don’t report the violence done to them by men.

22

Anonymous OP 1d

Yeah, from the data, we can agree that all of the populations experienced a high level of violence from men. Controlling just down to lesbians who experienced violence from women, though, you're still looking at a 66% hit rate. Again, not a safe haven from domestic violence. We can talk about underreporting and tangential statistics all day, but the hard data is there in your face saying that opting to date women will not de-risk you from facing domestic violence.

There is no perfect solution, however the reality is that men still contribute 90% of the sexual violence statistic and violent crime in general. I see no reason to involve myself in that if I do not have to. Again, why are you so invested in who I do or do not date?

You keep hyper focusing on one thing and ignore the rest, the issue isn’t only femicide or only domestic violence.
