The books don't do anything or society has to do with domestic violence. I mean it's been in the spotlight, more, but the only reason domestic violence happens, because the parents don't let their sons or daughters respect other people and not raise them to see people are people. Not objects to take your aggression on.

Boys are taught to hide their feelings and overachieve even in way back when. You are completely out of the loop if you believe domestic violence is a modern crisis. It's a human crisis since ever, I never believed as a man, both men and women are different. They are human, despite biological traits, human is strong in both. Violence shouldn't be the answer and 50 shades of grey is an opening to the bdsm community that already suffers enough bad stigma, but recently finally reaching the public eye. Why people are making a huge deal about it now with that book is because many people who want to try bdsm or get into it as the average couple to test each other's trust aren't careful and safe? BDSM has it's risks and to be prepared as a couple to take them mutually.. So domestic violence and 50 shades of grey are completely two different things. Domestic violence isn't just men, it's both men and women, more than half are men, but it's closer to 50/50 of the statistics even the unreported ones from men are at an all sky high.

I find it infuriating that this gender issue is a one sided ordeal. It's one sided, because women are getting the *** end and it sucks. I'm not one, I see it a lot and I hate it. It's stupid, like women are people like men, but men in this society who haven't got it that their needs to be everyone person in this country who has children need to take care of their children and don't leave the gf when she's pregnant even if she is with someone else. It starts with bad parenting with a history of domestic violence. I'm surrounded with this stuff, so it's silly to say a book is the cause of it.

Completely ignorant. Domestic violence is a societal and parenting issue. I feel that parents need to nurture boys and that given to not having to man up all the time and needs to take care of themselves and others. That life isn't always about using force and know when to step up and be mindful of yourself and others.

This issue will always be persistent until people everywhere actively do better parenting and mothers nurturing their boys instead of ignoring them, because they need to man up about it and stop crying. Also better fathers to show them what mindfulness really is and showing that their actions have consequences and prove that when it comes to women, treat them as individuals not as the wholesome body to use at their will.

That's the heart of the feminism issue, is respect not just from men, but self respect, promoting love and support that our current system in society is distorted and won't change till everyone is active and persistent to better ideals. This will take a very long time. I'm fed up with all this complaints of how it should be this or that and there isn't enough action.. I only support the things when it does something practical and works.

For women to feel not afraid of men, it will take a very long time or not depends on how persistent and widespread how the ideals that's put over generations to show that we aren't what we were before. Women need no protection and are capable to do what men do on their own abilities that they set their mind to. Despite society making it hard on women, they are much stronger to understand and living life to push past the limits of most men and women.

I'm getting off track, but it's not that simple. I find it ignorant how people will shove this in a very biased direction.. A few large groups of individuals who are against this are going to stop this issue. I'm saying people in this country just need to make the change themselves as parents.

but as of now I don't see that happening any time soon... I see more of this issue growing, and this will go down a downward slope of people not getting to the heart of the issue and helping the annoyance of some problems related to it. Like this book for being banned.

So keep in mind, BDSM completely consensual, it requires trust to actually happen. Domestic violence, is just an aggressor and their victim for control.

completely two different things.
