The pervading sense that domestic violence is a crime affecting "others" is dissipating.

"It's not a question of a group of criminals," said Ms. Schyman, who is leading the campaign for the feminist party. "It's not alcoholics and drug users, and it's not people that are put out from the society. It's every man and in every class of society."

Huh? I didn't read it to accuse every single man of being an abuser. Rather abuse isn't confined to criminal (chronically- violent types) nor to alcoholics or drug abusers. The quote is more that abusers come from all walks of life and from all social classes.

Save your energy for real outrages.

She is quoted as saying "IT'S EVERY MAN IN EVERY SOCIETY!!!". I don't know how else to take that. I take that to mean she believes every man is an abuser. Wacko feminist (redundant) Robin Brown said as much thirty years ago. What they are saying is "all men are violent pigs, so why don't you become a lesbian like me dear"?
