Everything turns black, and you feel yourself being shifted...
You wind up back in the classroom.
You look up as you hear a voice – it’s your professor’s voice.
“Myths about male domestic violence victims,” your professor is reading from the power point projected behind him.
“Myth number 1,” he says, “only men who are wimps allow themselves to be abused by women.” “Myth number 2,” he continues reading, “the abuser is always the bigger, stronger person and the victim is always the smaller, weaker person.”
You think back to your experience as Juan… yeah, this is a lot more complicated than you thought! As you are lost in thought about Juan, you hear your professor’s voice in the background.
“Myth number 7,” you hear him say, “research shows that 95-99% of the cases women are the victims of domestic violence and men are the perpetrators. While it’s true that the in the majority of domestic violence cases women are the victims, the National Institute of Justice find that men make up 15-35% of all reported victims of domestic violence.”
Class isn't over yet so to pass the time you,
- You think, "It's too bad I didn't pick a different option on the quiz"
- You look at the handout being passed around that lists the myths the professor was talking about [1]
- You think it’s bollocks that men can be victims so you check out some more info on the National Institute of Justice website [2]
- You wish you had chosen a less informative choose your own adventure
- You wish you knew more about why you were transported to that other body
