    So, I think what I see looking through these posts is...

    1. The self-described feminists (NOW in CA aside, since I still haven't seen a link to that factoid) see domestic violence and verbal abuse of men by women as WRONG.

    2. The Usual Suspects (and a few new feminazi bitch-haters or whatever the kids are calling themselves these days) think women are scum and ought to be hit back.

    Now we know why Broadsheet doesn't cover this topic that much, P. Jim. I mean, I'm glad they are, but it certainly isn't solving the dysfunctional comments-section problem.

    And please post a link to NOW's statement about shelters for men. I don't want to support them if they are really against such shelters, but I prefer to read their opinion on the matter for myself. Thanks.
