“According to the search results, domestic violence against men is significantly underreported:
- Studies have found prevalence rates of physical violence against men ranging from 3.4% to 20.3%, and psychological violence from 7.3% to 37%[1]. However, only 3% of cases of intimate partner violence against men are reported to the police[1].
- Reasons for underreporting include fear of being perceived as weak or effeminate, shame, fear of not being believed, and a desire to protect the abuser[2]. Men may also be less likely to perceive physical conflict as abuse[2].
- The Australian Bureau of Statistics cautions that its data on male victims of domestic violence has a much larger error rate than data for female victims[2].
- Estimates suggest that around 30% of men in England and Wales have experienced domestic violence[4], and men constitute 26% of intimate partner violence reports in Canada[4]. However, the true prevalence is likely much higher due to underreporting[4].
In summary, the search results indicate that domestic violence against men is significantly underreported, with estimates suggesting the true prevalence could be 3-10 times higher than official statistics[1][2][4]. The level of underreporting is considered a major issue in accurately understanding the full scope of this problem[1][2].
