Great, something does need to be done to get rid of the narrative that only women can be victims in need of help. The government even call male victims ‘victims of violence against women and girls’.
Maybe then we can just have a strategy that helps victims without getting gender involved.
Their approach sounds more inclusive and addresses the concern that helping men will mean less women helped, which it won’t.
This part is confusing…
>The plan will work with male victims at risk of committing sexual offences or causing harm, including through the Violence Reduction Unit, and extend Greater Manchester’s housing reciprocal arrangement.
Are they saying male victims commit offences? Weird.
