39.47-45.51. This contributor was on a 'Your Call' episode about this issue that I seem to remember and obviously he was upset then, shattered but has turned his life around. 'Cycle of abuse', could not agree more. The female psychologist on the 'Tyra Banks Show' episode from 2009 also mentioned it describing how people from childhood get the anger and frustration which often lead to fights most likely from parents, the way they were brought up, how they were treated, how they view the world, etc. This video has opened my eyes that this should be a non gender or ethnic issue. And it is true that no human is perfect according to the final contributor of this video towards the end who gave a good account of his own experience of domestic violence. Narcissism is one of the key points mentioned.

@uhegbu

'Passed down the generations'. That surely has got something to do with the issue. We are not talking about those in the present but those in the past, ten, twenty, fifty years ago or more.

Aha! Thangam Debbonaire explains how a "male-dominated society" is the problem here. I KNEW abused-men were to blame for getting beaten by women. 

@uhegbu

Understand that life is not a bed of roses. As individuals, instead of blaming the other person, look at yourself, accept the wrong decisions you made and improve yourself. Walk a mile in a person's shoes. Do you think slapping an individual like you see on TV programmes, soaps in particular is acceptable? I do not think so. We are all doomed.

@beelzibubbles

I've noticed when people talk of abuse or hardship, men will often say "you" while women will more say "I".

@IfIWereTheDevil

46:56 I getting pretty sick of hearing the phrase "Male dominated!" It's not male dominated, it's run by men, built off the backs of men, through their blood, sweat, and tears, not for their own benefit, but for the benefit of their women, and children, the intention of which is to build a better life for their family. Good video we need to hear more from male victims of D.V. but the definition of D.V. is starting to get intentionally skewed by the law, and feminists, and I don't think the new definition is going to be much help to male victims of D.V. I think it's going to open the flood gates to a whole load of new special "victims", claiming D.V. against their male partners, for example "Raising your voice," at a partner will be considered D.V. ok so what if it's just an argument your having with your partner? a lot of what comes under D.V. by their definition, is usually typical of female behaviour, however I'm betting it will be used to describe male behaviour in court rooms.

@ThatGuyDoingStuffz

I agee. The current definitions for what is considered DV are too broad. DV can be seen as any action that your partner does not agree with. 

The current definition of DV includes some of the in-famous parts of the SPC's refined definition. Some of the 'abuse' can be any interaction that one party does not agree with.

Get in an argument = abuse
Not doing household chores = abuse
Demanding you stick to a budget = abuse
Not agreeing = abuse
Using logic = abuse <my favourite)

@daisukeserizawa8428

Women being abusive and violent?! Well, obviously men are to blame somewhere and somehow - I just can't figure out how right now.  

@uhegbu

+Daisuke Serizawa Let's say that humans are unpredictable, that is nature, that is reality.
