    Men opposed to Violence against Women :-)

    This is courtesy of Paulo Coelhos bloggie and is good news. 70% of all women experience Violence at least once in their lives . Info here : http://paulocoelhoblog.com/2009/11/2...against-women/

    I am opposed to non-defensive violence towards women AND men.

    I am opposed to Paul Coelho's turgid fiction.

    When do you believe violence to be 'necessary'?

    What about in the case of a wife who refuses to have sex with her husband?

    Belly-button fluff Cactus!! the papers of Ban-Ki-Moon on rape as a tool of conflict, on forced marriage, on the negation and disenfranchisement of women are worth a read. Tokenism in political representation in theocratic /oligarichal societies is also an issue - a form of collaborationism in totalitarianism. I will link to last years VAW campaign which contains the reports when l find the link.

    Are you opposed to female violence against men, dot? What about women using their wares to entice and ensnare - is that OK?
