But let's all examine ways we might try to control women. All men are not responsible for committing acts of violence. But all men must take responsibility for ending all forms of violence. Work towards long-term solutions. Ending violence against women won't happen over-night.
Real solutions are truly long-term solutions.
This is because men's violence against women is rooted in inequalities between men and women, and in the way men learn to be men. But laws are not enough. Let's work together to change our attitudes and behaviour. Let's challenge the institutions which perpetuate inequality between women and men. Let's help men be better men by getting rid of our suits of armour, that is, attitudes which equate masculinity with the power to control.
