the recent demonstration that someone mentioned several posts back is a terrifying example of men being victimized by the “natural” assumption that the woman is always the victim.
i know no details of the case (not even the names of the ppl/families involved), nor which rabbanim are involved and telling ppl to demonstrate on the MIL’s front lawn, but i do KNOW that the husband in this case is acting on daas torah (he’s not in NY state). does his mother deserve ppl with “stop domestic violence” sings on her front lawn? have the rabbanim here in NY who allowed this contacted the husband or the beis din in his city? or does everyone pity the “poor stranded single mother” regardless?
i think its high time that men were treated fairly in abuse and agunah accusations.
