And i imagine a lot of gay men have the attitude that if they report intimate partner violence it will come back to hurt them in one way or another.
I know as a trans woman if I were to report violence from a cis woman I’d likely be reframed as the perpetrator and if I were to report violence from a trans woman it would be framed as “trans woman commits violent crime” and used to hurt me.
I was about to say the same thing. Women will report violence from women, men are going to be less inclined to.
