Yes better make sure we bring it back to the men, because we couldnt have a conversation about an issue without men being involved. Right now this isnt about them its about the the women who are being killed and families being destroyed by a male lead epidemic of abuse. Domestic violence is an issue for everyone and everyone should live in safety. However men already have a huge voice in this world, women are being killed, tortured and degraded on a far larger scale therefor we need to focus on them particularly. Not every campaign needs to include men, You don't see people up in arms about environmental campaigns featuring panda bears and saying "HAY WHALES GOT IT BAD ALSO PUT IN A BUNCH OF WHALES".
the ad said nothing about comparing the statistics of domestic violence between men and women. You're overanalyzing this and acting like the person who made this ad is a feminazi.
felixo77 thats a bullshit sight with an un quantified figure. The truth is 89% of abusers are men, be it in a hetrosexual or homosexula ralationship. In Australia 1.5 women DIE each week due to domestic violence and 95% of the perpetrators are male in, the number of men who died due to domestic violence last year was 0........... Yes domestic violence should be stopped in all its forms but it is a worldwide issue that men are the leading perpetrators of violence and this needs to be addressed. It might not be something people like to hear but its the truth that keeps getting proven time and time again.

^ yeah I was reading that and wondering "men are more likely to be victims of domestic abuse"? Let's all use common sense here
I always see black and blue, and the real dress is black and blue (it's been confirmed), but this is a different dress, so how you're still seeing black and blue is beyond me
Well, this is very good. Well done, Salvation Army.
