Avalanche of Criticism Against a Spanish Government Campaign That Demonizes Men

The Spanish Government has joined the leftist approach about a class struggle between men and women, prejudging the men as oppressors and the women as oppressed.

An institutional campaign in which man is always the bad one

On Thursday, the official Twitter account of the National Police Corps, under the Ministry of the Interior, published the following tweet with a mobile GIF with a controversial campaign launched by the Ministry of Health under the title "Friend Screens":

The GIF consists of ten slides in which it is classified as "gender violence" attempts to control the partner, either trying to exercise control with their mobile, through the Internet, in social networks and through applications such as WhastApp. The most striking thing is that in all the slides man is presented as the bad one and the woman as the victim. It is a crude form of propaganda that demonizes men in the most brazen way, in line with the ideas of gender ideology to project the Marxist thesis of the class struggle in the relationship between men and women, an idea proposed in 1970 by communist and radical feminist Shulamith Firestone. It is one of many leftist approaches that has ended up assuming the Popular Party, much to the amazement of many of its voters.

The campaign generates hundreds of criticisms, both of men and women

It must be said that the Police tweet has generated hundreds of criticisms, both men and women. Many women do not feel identified with this real ideological misandry promoted with public funds. "What is the motive of just putting men to women and not in both directions when there is evidence that it happens in the same way?", asks a female blogger from Madrid. "Women also do that. Men are NOT the only ones. Not all men are abusers, Not all women are victims," comments a woman from Lugo. "Gender ideology embedded in institutions," criticizes a woman from Ciudad Real.

Statistics contradict the misandric campaign of the Spanish Government

It seems that the authors of this campaign of the Ministry of Health have resorted exclusively to ideology for its elaboration. If they were referred to statistics, the slides would have been very different. In March 2013, several European universities and the Internet Security Center presented a study of 2,000 teenagers aged 14 to 17, revealing that girls harassed more than boys on the Internet. The study found that boys are less willing to invest time in planning a "harassment strategy," while girls "are much more methodical", tend to "dose" and "it is more appropriate for them to create a false profile on the Internet And send messages and threats."

In 2014 the University of Cumbria in the UK presented another study among 1,104 male and female teenagers, which revealed that women are more likely than males to be controlling and aggressive toward their partners. On the occasion of the presentation of the study, Dr. Elizabeth Bates noted: "Previous studies have sought to explain male violence towards women as arising from patriarchal values, which motivate men to seek to control women's behaviour, using violence if necessary." However, she added: "This study found that women demonstrated a desire to control their partners and were more likely to use physical aggression than men. This suggests that IPV may not be motivated by patriarchal values and needs to be studied within the context of other forms of aggression." I wonder if Spanish Government will assume this reality in its institutional messages, or if it will insist on demonizing men following the dictation of the most radical feminism.
