I like all these ideas. However, they are all just bandaids for a core human issue.

I would add that men's culture would need to fundemtally change too. I think it's happening slowly, however the resurgence of regressive ideas by young people worries me. But in order for men's culture to change for the positive, men need to be calling out other men -while also holding eachother up in support, teaching our son's better, and providing mental health support both in a professional manner but also familially, or nothing is going to fundemtally change.

Unfortunately I don't think we, as non men, can do much for this. Men must do the heavy lifting and teach/support eachother. Ultimately women beating (speaking on what I know about which is domestic violence) is often just scared cowardice and helplessness; fear turned to aggression as they assert control of their situation in the shittiest way possible. I clean my house spotless when I feel helplessness anxiety. A man with domestic violence as his uh, coping skill, seeks to take out his bullshit on others. Men gotta empower themselves so they feel strong enough inside about themselves as to not feel the need to exert power over others.

Im rambling. Idk if domestic violence will ever become a thing of the past. I do know other than protecting myself, and doing my best to raise an emotionally intelligent son, there isn't much I can do to help them, personally.
