The legal landscape surrounding domestic safety is often one-sided, leaving a significant portion of the population without a safety net. Despite the universal nature of abuse, the Domestic Violence Act in many regions, including ours, remains gender-specific rather than gender-neutral. This means that while protection is codified for some, it is legally non-existent for men facing the exact same trauma.
Recent studies from 2025 and early 2026 indicate that domestic abuse against men is an underreported crisis, often fueled by societal stigma and the lack of a dedicated support system. Currently, there is no specific Commission, Ministry, or Department for Men to address these grievances or provide resources for those in distress.
True equality cannot exist when justice is determined by gender. Forcing individuals to endure torture and harassment simply because the law does not recognize them as victims is a violation of fundamental human rights. It is time to advocate for gender-neutral laws that protect every citizen, regardless of their gender.
