When most of us think of domestic abuse, we probably don’t envision a scenario like this.
TRIGGER WARNING: This video contains depictions of emotional and physical abuse by a domestic partner.
In the U.K., where this film was produced, one-third to one-half of domestic violence cases involve male victims. And in the U.S., more than 1 in 4 men have experienced “rape, physical violence, and/or stalking by an intimate partner.”
The bottom line: Abuse is abuse, no matter who’s on the receiving end of it. And it is *never* acceptable.
Here’s a list of red flags published the National Domestic Violence Hotline. If you or a loved one are experiencing any of these, please call 1-800-799-SAFE for immediate support.
If you or a loved one is experiencing any of the above, please call 1-800-799-SAFE for immediate support 24 hours and 7 days a week. The National Domestic Violence Hotline is completely confidential and anonymous.
