Before I write anything about my own experience, I would like to know what do you think? What do you think about adults being severly mentally abused and manipulated by their parents or other family elders?

I think that this doesn't belong in the feminism forum.

Actually, many feminists are experts on all types of family violence. Even though masculists know about male victims, they generally know very little about abuse dynamics.

Many people here would also be interested in looking at causes of male anger and male criminality. Most women in Canada love shows like Secrets of Forensic Science. And yet few people know about the psychology of men presented there.

I believe this discussion belongs in Body and Soul and ask anyone reading this with the authority to do so to move it.

Yeah, I agree that it doesn't belong here - I can see where this is going a mile away.

First: I don't think you know this forum or it's posters well enough to speak for them and what they want to know, or need to know or should know.

Second:

This isn't the place for this thread. The "psychology of men" presented anywhere, and hmmm, how is this a feminist issue, hmmmm. I don't fucking think so. We have been through this dance in the last couple days in other threads, pay attention, this doesn't belong in the feminism forum, take it to 'Body and Soul'.

Third:

How the hell do you know that "most women" are into that show? Right now this is me handing you the Cluebat, hit yourself with it. Suggesting you are in any postion to make a broad generalization regarding women as a gender shows you are lacking in clues. Generalizations don't fly on babble.
