Just ask men in BC!  

The BC policy manual for DV told police to assume that the male in domestic violence situations was the perpetrator, and that resulted in ... surprise, surprise ... grossly inflated arrest rates for males in DV situations for over a decade. Even after the province lost a lawsuit in 2004 over their gender biased DV policy, their rhetoric overwhelmingly leans towards female victims and male perps in examples, language, and programming. The "Stopping the Violence" provincially funded programs are solely geared towards women and children, for example.
