I kønnet vold er det mønsteret, at volden primært begås af mænd

I Berlingske i går spørger jeg, om det er rimeligt, at vi normaliser vold mod kvinder? Jeg synes vi skal se kritisk på, hvordan vi giver kvinder (og piger) ansvaret for volden ved - for eksempel - at opfordrer dem til, at passe på. Bør vi ikke i stedet se på hvordan og hvorfor vi producerer så mange voldsparat mænd? Og går det ikke også ude over mændene? Hvad er det i vores adfærd, antagelser, opdragelse m.m., som gør, at vi står med denne udfordring i et ligestillingsorienteret, demokratisk og civiliseret samfund?

(A short piece on normalized gendered violence. I suggest that we look critically at how we place responsibility for male (and sexualized) violence on women (and girls). For example by telling women and girls to be careful (abt where they go, what they wear, who they speak to). I think our focus really needs to shift. The assumption that men pose a threat because they are men needs to be addressed. We should be asking how and why we produce so many violence-prone men? We need to realize that this is also harmful to men - to all genders. What kind of gendered behaviour are we producing? How are our habits and norms (and upbringing) producing gendered violence? Does normalizing gendered violence make any sense in a society that considers itself democratic and civilised?)
