Targeting men as always the blame in domestic violence is not the solution as it can be perpetrated by both sexes. It is true that men are offenders a lot of the time, but that does not mean they are always at fault. The blame needs to be at the real offender not to just blame the man as he is bigger and stronger. If a man is violent and harmful to his family then there needs to be action taken to protect the women and children yes I agree that this is best in that case.

There is programming to soften men in our community but we need to have strong, big men in our society. It is important for society to support strong men as they can then protect women and children who are around them in their communities. Some men are too afraid to stand up for what is right as they have been attacked in the past for doing this. But a healthy community is one where there are strong men standing up for what it right and fair for all. There are attacks on the middle class and family at the moment by society with divide and conquer tactics so all sides are fighting each other instead of the enemy. This can cause a breakdown of the family unit. It is made popular to follow others and to not do what is right as some men are trying to be a part of the group so they are popular and well liked or are afraid of speaking out. When this happens it can destabilise the family unit and the communities that they live in. Another thing that is happening is lots of confusion on what a man is and should be. So many families now live with no male role model and would have no idea what a good male role model is. But we need to have male role models for children both boys and girls need good male role model. Girls who grow up with a good healthy happy male role models grow up to be in healthy relationships later in their life that is how important it is. For boys they learn what a healthy male role model is and how to act and treat their mums and future wives.

How many men today have no idea what it means to be a man?

How many boys have never had a healthy male role model in their life to teach them what it means to be a man.

Some men think its is not cool to be strong and stand up for what is right, but they need to do this to protect their family unit and community. This is how our ancestors worked the whole family and community of men would work together on any issues in the community to find solutions. It was a team effort by a group of strong men working together to create change. In the tough times like today you find out what a man is made of if he will stand up for what is right or not. I would like to see the strong men stand up for what is right in the world as this is needed at the moment. I am not saying to be violent but to stand up with you voice about what is wrong in the world so you can make a change.
