In New Zealand it appears to be young adult women who are the main victims of violence. By quite a margin, like 50% more than men, which is probably enough to override any differences in reporting.

Reported sexual violence, where the ratio is about 40% male 60% female in NZ.

Looking at the UK for violence in general. 72% of homicide victims were male and 28% were female. Men accounted for a higher proportion of victims of violence with and without injury where the perpetrator was a stranger. Vast majority of knife crime victims are male.

Women tend to be victims of men they know. Men tend to be victims of men they don't know.

But sure, carry on with the "#AllWhiteMen" and "#MenDontCry" and victim blaming and other misanthropic nonsense.

What part of which @jemmyw comment deserves this:

See HN comment guidelines https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

I suspect you meant to type misandry rather than misanthropic, and further guess you have little to no exposure to the breadth and spectrum of domestic violence in New Zealand: https://youtu.be/x6tgOOWPMkQ?t=88

It's all the same, and thats why you kill the comments. You like to bundle "All Men" into one group and "All Women" into another because it's easier for you to work with generalisations.

Because more women suffer domestic violence, men don't suffer at all. Winner takes all etc.

Just ignore other forms of violence because it doesn't fit your nice easy groups.

It's completely unsurprising of course, we live in a polarised world.

		* I haven't killed any comments here, it's dang and tomhow that are HN moderators, and while I have [flag] powers like most HN users I haven't used them in this submission. * I personally don't bundle in the way _you_ have accused _me_ of, it very much looks as if you are generalising. I urge you to step back and take a good hard look at your comments and ask if perhaps you've adopted a crusty insular polarised world view yourself - there's a general lack of attention to what others are actually saying in their comments, a tendency to leap to the worst interpretation (from your PoV), and zero nuance ... you know, the very things you've dug in to accuse others of.
