Al..right. Let's do a little sanity check and let's see how up or downvoted is gets.

  1. It is absolutely true that violence against women is structurally endemic in our societies and they represent a large majority of domestic violence
  2. It is also absolutely true that domestic violence against men is clearly under-reported, to an unknown but significant extant
  3. It is absolutely true that abuse is abuse

Those assertions do not contradict each other.

Ha! #2 is wrong because you said extant instead of extent. I've got you now, sensible internet stranger! ๐Ÿค“๐Ÿค“๐Ÿค“
