KEY FACTS
The following basic statistics help demonstrate the prevalence and severity of violence against women:
On average, at least one woman a week is killed by a partner or former partner in Australia.1
One in three Australian women has experienced physical violence, since the age of 15.2
One in five Australian women has experienced sexual violence.2
One in four Australian women has experienced physical or sexual violence by an intimate partner.2
One in four Australian women has experienced emotional abuse by a current or former partner.3
Women are at least three times more likely than men to experience violence from an intimate partner.4
Women are five times more likely than men to require medical attention or hospitalisation as a result of intimate partner violence, and five times more likely to report fearing for their lives.5
Of those women who experience violence, more than half have children in their care.6
Violence against women is not limited to the home or intimate relationships. Every year in Australia, over 300,000 women experience violence – often sexual violence – from someone other than a partner.7
Eight out of ten women aged 18 to 24 were harassed on the street in the past year.8
Young women (18 – 24 years) experience significantly higher rates of physical and sexual violence than women in older age groups.9
There is growing evidence that women with disabilities are more likely to experience violence.10
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women experience violence at higher rates than non-Indigenous women.11

Every one of those things you've posted has a counter-argument - I can't be bothered going over each one for you.
Often the violence is from other women or girls at school etc.... to make a clear case you need to differentiate. You also say that ATSI women suffer more - we all know that - that is no reason to condemn the mass of men, and it never will be justification for the violence exercised by the State in the name of 'protecting' women - an approach that has demonstrably failed for the simple reason that attacking INNOCENT men on the basis of some ideology or some mythical 'feeling' results in a further set of victims, who WILL retaliate.
The very approach of the /State to matters involving women is the direct cause of the escalating violence and deaths in 'domestic' situations.
You also need to clearly differentiate between the Jill Meagher type of outright crime and 'domestic violence'.
This perpetual quoting of bald figures, without citing that x% were from criminal strangers, and y% was from ATSI, and z% was from Wogville - grossly distorts the entire issue and makes of ALL men criminals without ever having committed an offence.
I doubt that anyone 'hates' women - by the same standard you could equally say that "the XXXXX hates men" - the social and regulatory situation in which men AND women find themselves far too often is the root cause of the apparently never-ending war between women (first shots) and men.
All this 'emotional' claptrap is killing people - men, women and children, and its time for its proponents - those propagandists who distort reality to make it appear that men are violent animals as a group - TO GROW UP!
