    I hate the fact that society thinks that men should put up with everything and not cry. Big hugs guys, well done for speaking up.

      This is so right ,100% completely right,,but even though this is being discussed,, some women get an hunger ,these are demons and devils,,and children are used,abused physical mental sexual ,and if murder death ,get a orgasmic kick they have destroyed a relationship,crushed and destroyed the ,very person that cared for them and the innocent children brought in to the world,,this is just not a clash of. Oh you were not meant for each other,i suffered,couldn't or wished to walk away ,to see men walking in my house ,my furniture etc etc, so I fought and fought, but my only daughter was used as a weapon,15 now 36 and this xxxx,puts herself as oh look at me,victim,I'm quiet innocent,,but in fact a demon a devil,,and at very end of marriage,said " oh you were to strong for me, but continues to blacken my name,, people ,neighbours,avoid you. And if these same women ,,got with a ruffian,waster who beat them for the least bit thing,they respect them,love them crawl over broken glass for them ,, but my mother in law ( demon) groomed her 4 children ( different father's) to live this way and every father etc was the bad man,until next drink )boyfriend came along ,,was to be another victim,, one thing about Islam,the women dare not betray,abuse and hurt there husband,,and "hey 'women respect them , but I say pray to God read the Bible "pray"

      MRA dudes (mostly) are pretty pathetic.
      Men having depression and such a high suicide rate as a consequence of toxic masculinity, the over the top societal expectations and how men/young are still being taught to be tough, don't cray and all that 50's boomer mindset, he would've had a point!!! But so... Virtually all perceived men’s rights issues can be attributed to the patriarchy - e.g. women winning custody more often after centuries of being forced to be primary care takers.
      MRA folks just need to actually understand what feminism is and understand reality. Alas, they're more focused on being angry at women than actually uplifting everyone.

    More people, especially those who work in the legal system, need to realize that domestic abuse is not just a woman's story. The stigma surrounding male victimization in domestic violence situations needs to be addressed and deserves more attention then it's receiving.

    Yes, we do cry. Often in silence. It’s a normal part of the grieving process. I did it today in fact. My abuser, my ex-wife, has weaponized both my son and daughter. When I divorced her, I not only became the ex husband but the ex father. During my marriage, I was abused and tormented, it included physical assault. Since the separation and divorce, I have endured smearing, false allegations of abuse, arrest, prosecution, multiple allegations of abuse towards my children, police investigations regarding alleged child abuse (never charged or prosecuted), repeated child custody hearings, visitation denied whenever the wind changes, forced monitoring of visitation, etc. Finally, I gave up. As a father, I had two choices, keep fighting and have my children punished further for trying to have a relationship with me (I can tell they have changed) or walk away to spare them. I walked away. Tears me apart. Coercive control is a weapon frequently used by a female perpetrator towards a male victim that they can no longer control. They weaponize their own children. We are not allowed to talk about being abused. If you are a man and you have been through this, speak up. You aren’t alone. We often cry alone. I do. I don’t want to be blamed, shamed, or labeled as weak ever again.

    Violent women should have their kids taken away and given to the father, it’s just unfair that men are treated this way yet women get sympathy from everywhere. My son had to go on a course for anger management, yet it was the girlfriend that hit him with a machete and various other items, unfortunately he won’t press charges, and he’s made out to be the instigator of violence. She uses their children against him so he stays, and he loves his children. I really feel for men like this.

      He should have her arrested for abusing him and take action to get full custody of his children. She abuses him therefore she probably will abuse the kids.

    Found this video on "Real Fathers For Justice" and am promoting it through our own network now. Thank you so much to all those who worked so hard to bring these true life stories to the forefront. I too have been a victim of abuse by my ex-wife, years of physical and emotional abuse but I stayed for my children. NOW, we are divorced and she has furthered the abuse by alienating my children from me.
    Of course, when she sees this post, there will be something else she will do to cause me some sort of harm...

    I'm just going to say that everyone cries. But it's also so sad that Society thinks it's okay to harass men and force men to put up with bullshit and not cry. 😢 This is terrible. To be honest, I think society is out of control.

Some type of counseling that specializes in emotional abuse, and trauma bonding. Reprogram yourself to love you in a healthy way . We have a way a repeating the cycle until we do that. Bless you

    I absolutely believe that men can & do get abused by women or by men. While I have never known a man who was hit, I DO know men who were emotionally-abused and/or controlled by their female partners. It was a shame, they refused to listen & stayed with the person. Abuse is NEVER acceptable.

    This is completely shocking and everyone once they identify they are being abused needs to leave that abusive relationship pronto. l am really glad that men are coming forward and speaking out l think that has been long overdue. No matter who the victim or perpetrator is leave the situation when you can do so safely. We all have the right to live in peae and safety l take my hat off to all victims who come forward to press charges when they can. l think you are more of a man for speaking out definitely.

    If you have watched this video and all you can say is yer feminists are to blame... You aren't helping these abused men. My friend was the editor on this and is a feminist and she (like many many feminists) fight and speak up male rights. 3rd wave feminism is bullshit and does not represent most feminists. Talk to your male friends, let them know it's OK to ask for help... Share this video to raise awareness... Help at an abuse shelter... These are ways to help. Not commenting on how this abuse is feminists fault. It is the abusers fault just like not all men abuse women... We need to hold abusers accountable and this documentary is about the abuse these poor men suffered through and how hard it was to escape. By commenting "this is because of feminists " you are making it about your agender and not about men who are abused.
    My heart goes out to these men and they are so brave for speaking out. I hope they find happiness and know it was these women who should be ashamed and they should be proud of their strength ❤️❤️❤️
