In short: The Australian Institute of Criminology's Homicide in Australia report shows 49 per cent of female victims of homicide were killed by a former or current intimate partner in the 2022-23 financial year.
The rate of homicides committed by an acquaintance of the victim — rather than a stranger or someone intimately known to them — was the lowest it has been in the 34 years the report has been produced.
What's next? Australian Institute of Criminology research manager Dr Samantha Bricknell says overall homicide rates in Australia have decreased by 52 per cent over the last 34 years.

Feminism Is a business. How about we converse about the 3000 + Men per year committing suicide. A great % of those is attributed to intimate breakdowns. . Better yet, what triggers a good functioning man to commit such an act? It's a mature discussion Australia needs desperately
@FemmeVsFeminism Says:
What utter garbage! Just look at the # of likes vs views to give a true insight into community sentiment. STOP THE VILIFICATION OF MEN!

Every 15 days in Australia a woman is killed by domestic violence every 28 days a male is killed by domestic violence women are complaining as more women are killed than men but what happened to having equality and a life is a life and any life is not worth taking about numbers that also has been 283 deaths of children due to domestic violence 131 of those deaths caused by women and 81 by men why are we not hearing these numbers in the public eye as women are killing more kids than men are killing women in domestic violence issues why is this being hidden from mainstream media
@joelogan7483 Says:
We did actually "lose the next woman" ( 10 year old girl actually) very soon after Erin's call.
A 17 year old woman has been charged with her murder.
@joelogan7483 Says:
"A woman is killed every 4 days"
A man is killed more often than that.
277 men were killed in 2022 of 377 homicides.
Do the math.
@joelogan7483 Says:
Erin, sorry, but in Australia women are far safer than men.
In 2022 there were 377 homicides of which 69% were men, women 31%.
Erin is "milking" the 5 deaths of women killed at Bondi as "Violence by ( all) men"
How about some outrage over the 8 deaths of children in a home in Cairns in 2014, by, oops, a woman.
One idea?
Have conversations with women and tell them if a man has a history of murder rape violence, don't pursue, stay with or go back to him.

What about men suffering abuse by their partners, works both ways
@MetaruMaster Says:
Literally yesterday, my friend got glassed in the face in an argument with his partner, broken eye socket, unconscious. Woke up in hospital with Police issuing HIM an DVO, but he wouldn't say a word because he didn't want to get her in trouble. Men get abused just as much. Erin's inane attempt to get men talking about it so naive its funny. Yeah, lets start the conversation 99% percent of men who wouldn't dream of hitting or killing a woman, that's going to change things.
Wonder how many men have killed themselves from parental isolation this year?
@richardcopnall8306 Says:
The solution is not blokes telling other blokes to be nice to the girls. The incidence of demostic violence is very rare. About one in 1000. I barely know a thousand men but is the expectation that whenever I meet another man I remind him not to beat his wife and he reminds me to do the same. Imagine how offensive that would be. Erin is smart enough to look at the statistics and know she is safe. Like COVID there are women who are vulnerable and we need to focus on protecting them.

@grahamdavison198 Says:
Having said that I am of the opinion that the current mindset regarding men which has devolved over the past 20 odd years has contributed to this issue and that just holding commissions to discuss the issues is just a political bandaid solution. I for one have NEVER ever contemplated raising a hand against a member of the opposite sex. But then I am a little older and was raised under different value system. Go figure.

I can't take people like Erin seriously when she demonises one group of people.
I'm against ALL domestic violence, regardless of whether it occurs to a man or woman.
Yes Erin, it also does occur against men as well:

69% of homicide victims are men and men are more likely to be the victims of violent assault, yet as usually nada is heard about these numbers nor any funding aimed at alleviating the issue.

She really should have known by now that the majority of the responses would be more concerned with what about the poor men...
It doesn't take much for men to show women they aren't interested unless it directly effects what they themselves want.

@richardfox6595 Says:
The leftists are hell bent on redefining men as women, allowing them into private women's places and to win at women's sports, assaulting and firing anyone who calls them out.
I don't condone violence by men against women (or men) and I don't accept the excuse that they felt like identifying as a woman one day.
Maybe if voters in their droves (including surprisingly many women) cottoned on and stopped voting Labor, Green and Teal and donating to BLM and Hamas, it would help.
