Every time a woman is murdered by a man – usually a partner – the feminist howl goes up about men and their violent tendencies which are particularly focused on women. As with a lot of accepted feminist rhetoric they have it wrong. More males are murdered per year than females.
According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, there were 377 victims of homicide and related offences recorded in Australia in 2022, an increase of 7 victims from the previous year.
Most victims of homicide and related offences in 2022 were male (69%), aged over 18 years (85%), and killed at a residential location (64%). More than a third (36%) of homicides were family and domestic violence related, and more than half (59%) involved the use of a weapon.
Men murder more males than females.
