[van-discuss] RE: [van-announce] safety support group starting...

[Jessica Sutherland]

This is great!!!

However I was wondering if for once there would be another group started,
one for men. With discussions on why men attack, how to stop yourself from
attacking a women, and accountability. It is interesting that women are
always held responsible to protect ourselves and support each other in doing
so, which is great to do and I encourage the grouping of women to gain more
community. I know for myself, it is something I have been taught all my life
from my mom, my teachers, counselors at school, in anything I have done, I
have always been taught to look out for myself and make myself safe
but I
can’t do that when a man doesn’t make himself not a threat.

Any interested men willing to take this on???

Jessica
