Allison Walker in this group has posted the following:
“Maybe it is because the level of domestic abuse has escalated to a level that it is just healthier for women and children to be away from it.”
What data set exists which demonstrates a dramatic increase in DV in Australia? I genuinely want to study this.

QUESTION? 🤔
I was just watching a segment from 60 minutes in the United States. The interviewee said that in the industrialised world statistically “sex has collapsed”.
Another US survey found that 1/3 of American men & 1/5 of American women have not had sex in the past 12 months!
Is this the same story in Australia? What the hell is going on?
I have been out of the dating market for 21 years. I have no idea what is going on.
What insights can you provide?

CRAZY! 🤣
I just received a phone call from a long term contact who responded to a text of mine. She told me about a male escort she knows (who is quite famous in NSW).
Apparently, this male escort is run off his feet!! He is in his 50s & he is serving women from 25 years old up to 80 years!
I checked this guy out. This guy charges $750 for a 4 hour dinner with no sex. A two hour sex session is $1,200. All night sex is $AUD 5,000!
The economics of this is absolutely insane! If people can splash this sort of coin around, we need a recession to reset expectations!

QUESTION for the group….
I am looking at the “personal safety” data which is published by the ABS. In latest release was published in 2023 for FY 21-22.
It states the following:
“1 in 4 women experienced cohabiting partner emotional abuse (23%)”.
What does this mean??? What is “emotional abuse” in modern Australia?
It also states that “1 in 6 women experienced cohabiting partner economic abuse (16%)”!
What does that mean?
Does this include a husband telling his wife that they cannot afford her going to spending splurge on the latest fashion?
Any thoughts here??

A left wing female friend of mine sent me the following:
“The domestic violence in this country and around the world is an epidemic.
Brushing off the seriousness of financial control as “a husband saying no to a fashion shopping spree” is not only dismissive—it is dangerous. It trivialises a recognised form of abuse that strips individuals of autonomy, dignity, and safety. Financial control is not about budgeting or mutual decision-making; it is about power. It can involve restricting access to money, monitoring every purchase, preventing someone from working, or forcing them into financial dependence so they cannot leave.
Minimising this behaviour reinforces harmful narratives that abuse must be physical to be real. In reality, coercive control—often including financial abuse—is one of the strongest predictors of escalating violence. It traps people in cycles where leaving becomes logistically and emotionally overwhelming.
When society normalises or jokes about these dynamics, it silences victims, validates perpetrators, and delays intervention. We should be calling it what it is: a serious form of domestic violence that requires awareness, accountability, and zero tolerance.”

My wife & I paid off our first mortgage which was $313.5 k from in 4.5 years from 2009 to 2013.
I became super obsessed with knocking it off. That achievement in our late 20s set us up for life.
This is why I am now 44 years old with a decent house no debt with 3 kids.
Did I blow up at my wife a few times because we didn’t put every single spare cent on the mortgage - the answer is yes.
But it has served us very well over the past 15 years.
Does that make me a financial abuser?
By modern definitions, I am guilty as charged!

WOW! 😱
My left wing female friend just texted me the following:
“The most dangerous place for a woman is in her own home with her male partner.”
With this attitude, love & intimacy in Australia is 100% DEAD!

OMG! 😱
I am at Westpac on Collins Street, Melbourne … a mentally ill woman (probably drugged up) started shouting the most bizarre obscenities in the bank!
I joked with the security guard, “are you going to protect me from that woman?”
He got visibly upset, he said that if he touches ANYONE he will lose his job & his security license!
I said “What is the point of having a security guard in the bank?”
He looked me straight in the eye & said “this country is finished”!
What an UNBELIEVABLE experience in Melbourne!
