definingthedarkness: glisteningsoftly: invertedgender: Men are using a powerful hashtag to fight back against emotional abuse According to NCADV, 4 in 10 people have experienced some kind of coercive control from an intimate partner. Sadly, #MaybeSheDoesntHitYou is raising much-needed awareness for a widespread problem. This is disgusting. It really is. I hope that people gain awareness of this issue and their own situation and I really hope that we all find better. I appreciate the hell out of the women reblogging this. As a survivor of such emotional abuse, I know it’s vital for men to step forward and talk about their experiences. The old “man up” narrative needs to die. I am a strong advocate of women’s rights. But this seriously needs to be addressed too. This is not love. Men need a voice in these matters too and women need to be just as vocal about these matters as we need men to be about women’s matters. Because we are all human and no one deserves to be treated this way. -- source link
