Forbes article on Father's Rights and Domestic Violence

I just received this via my WMST-L listserv, which hosts the "who's who" of Women's Studies. This particular posting by Shira Tarrant is SO related to our readings from last night. We didn't really get into the father's rights and men's rights movements, which I would have liked to discuss...but it was a wonderful class discussion (thank you:) nonetheless. Check this out and feel free to comment on the article or here. Leandra

Subject: Forbes article on fathers' rights and domestic violence
Cathy Young's article defends fathers' rights groups and promotes the myth that DV is equally perpetuated.
Anyone care to weigh in online with corrective data in the comments section?
