The mentioned website came as one of the top searching on google while searing "men preventing violence against women". Upon further investigating of the organization, it was created by the Violence Against Women Act of 2005. The Act provides practical solutions to law enforcement responding to domestic and sexual violence. The act also provides housing to victims preventing them from entering homeless status (Congress of the United States, 2005). I did not even realize that this law was ever implemented. The website mentioned targeting men to further decrease domestic violence rates. This is accomplished primarily through men mentoring youth.

A large percent of domestic violence abusers are men (Futures Without Violence, 2014). Over 90% of domestic violence abusers are men so involving the primarily causer of the problem. This program helps young adults that might be growing up in compromised setting to learn and understand themselves better as young men and help those growing up with domestic violence in their homes.

Violence against women. It's a men issue. For so long, we have been hearing that violence against women is a female issue. Because whenever there is a domestic or any other kind of violence is forced by women, the female gender got nominated as she is the victim. Everybody who heard about violence talks about women how is the victim. And in this way, it becomes the problem of women rather than men. In all this situation, men got ignored. But in the real sense, the reason behind that violence and disrespect are men.

Jackson Kats presents the same idea according to him, violence against women, in reality, is the issue of men. These men due to which women are bring triggered. Even it is about sexual assailment, we have never done something wrong. Most of the time, women become the victim. Men also get sexually assaulted by men. This is not only about women. Men and women both are violated, sexually assaulted by males.

It shows that the problem lies within men as our society is the men dominated society. A question arises here that, What can we do as a person to stop all this?. It is the moral duty of every person to stop what is wrong. If a white man bullies a black man on the basis of racism, it is m mandatory for the other white men who are listening to all this to atop. Men can control themselves, so they rape, men violate women, men rape men, and the surroundings peers, family, and colleague make that man to this task. Their challenges and their talks make them think that this is a human-made world. "The need for the man's accountability to women is based on the assumptions that women experience and understand violence in a more profound way than most men who tend to underestimate the danger facing women. "(Christie, 2014). Many men in society are willing to be accountable to make society safe for everyone. So the things discussed above shows that violation against women is not the female gender problem.
