  • Does how we talk about men influence the massive problem of violence against women?

    There are conversations we need to have in broader society about family violence. But where are the men?

    How do we get our men to actively participate in a stand to stop violence against women? This is a tricky conversation. Clearly, it would be great if men just stop being violent. But telling men to simply ‘stop it,’ isn’t working.

    And this is certainly NOT about blaming women. This is more about how do we make family violence prevention a whole of community thing? So not just something for “women's groups” to tackle. We need a multifaceted approach. And we need the men to come along with us.

    In part 2 of this series, we speak to Louise O’Neill, a rural counsellor and founder of Farm Life Fitness, based in Denmark, WA. Louise is challenging the unhelpful and unhealthy expectations that can heavily influence the mental health and lives of both rural men and women.
