How many of them believe that everyone lies?

"women lie about DV...", will go both ways. You will also find some that are in those conditions and will not tell others or even try to hide it (for what reasons, I can't really tell).

Until we know about the actual wording of the survey, there is no way to tell what exactly they are interpreting.
I also have a feeling that the people who conducted the survey, might be misinterpreting the answers.

Holy engagement bait, Batman! What a terrible headline.

Yes, it is a fact that women lie about domestic and sexual violence. I've seen first-hand a family seriously impacted by a false accusation. The son was detained in prison for a year, the parents took out a mortgage on their home to defend the case and finally the girl admitted in court that she fabricated the whole thing. The son was acquitted. These cases happen. Here's a fairly broad paper on the matter discussing several deeper studies spanning several countries including Australia, Canada and the UK.

Among the seven studies that attempted some degree of scrutiny of police classifications and/or applied a definition of false reporting at least similar to that of the IACP, the rate of false reporting, given the many sources of potential variation in findings, is relatively consistent:

• 2.1% (Heenan & Murray, 2006)
• 2.5% (Kelly et al., 2005)
• 3.0% (McCahill et al., 1979)
• 5.9% (the present study)
• 6.8% (Lonsway & Archambault, 2008)
• 8.3% (Grace et al., 1992)
• 10.3% (Clark & Lewis, 1977)
• 10.9% (Harris & Grace, 1999)

With that out of the way, let's move on to the elephant in the room:

IN OVER 90% OF CASES, THE RAPES WERE CREDIBLE! FALSE ACCUSATIONS ARE THE EXCEPTION!!

They do. There’s actually a lot more sexual violence happening than anyone wants to admit.

Eat shit, yutes

I need to know, how that question was phrased, otherwise that 40% number is completly meaningless. The two extremes would be "Do you think a woman has ever lied about domestic and sexual violence?", or "Do you think all reports by a woman of domestic and sexual violence are a lie?". In the first case a significant share would answer yes, because a single false claim ever makes that statement correct. The opposite is true for the second phrasing, where a single correct claim makes that statement false. The real phrasing is probably somewhere in between, but even then you could heavily influence the outcome with subtle changes to the phrasing.

Misogyny is certainly a huge issue among young men.

I'm not sure about this research though. It's always concerning when they don't publish the actual data and questions et cetera.

Perhaps most alarming: roughly 40% of boys aged 13 to 17 agreed that women lie about domestic and sexual violence.

This one really, really depends on the question. Both men and women often lie and say that their partner doesn't hit them. This is pretty well known actually. You'd have to be pretty naive to think it doesn't happen.

Occasionally I'm sure that both men and women do lie and say that their partner does hit them, for a variety of complex reasons. An acquaintance of mine, a woman, signed a declaration to say that her partner hit her and then during court proceedings she admitted that was a false statement. Uh oh. Anyhow, it's certainly a thing that happens.

Does that mean all women who claim to be victims of domestic abuse are liars? Certainly not. But are lies told about domestic violence? Of course.

Support for violence to resist feminism was highest among adolescent boys (28%), followed closely by adolescent girls (21%).

This is also curious. Obviously alarming, but how does one use violence to resist feminism? I'm genuinely confused as to what is meant by this. If you had asked 15 year old me, not really knowing what feminism is, I would have assumed it meant some kind of armed uprising of women, and yeah I would have said that in that context violence is ok.

Some respondents justified violence in the private sphere. If a woman disobeys in the home, a man should be able to control her with violence.

I notice that this fiery little truth bomb is tempered to "some respondents". How many is some? I guess 2 at least.

Again, misogyny is a huge problem. It would be extraordinarily difficult to be a female teacher. My son is too young to have encountered this stuff but it's definitely on my mind as we navigate the coming years. However, I think this article is intended to be incendiary rather than tease out the nuance revealed by their "research".

Downvoting not because the topic is unimportant but because the new study is run by this news agency without publishing their questions or methodology. That seems like running for a headline with little concern for accuracy or scientific methods. I could be wrong but until they are more open we don't know

Edit: If you ignore the authors then the above is a pretty reasonable interpretation but it was written by some university researchers. They are surprisingly unclear (to me) in the body for what study exactly they are referencing to, at least in their opening paragraphs. Still, it doesn't seem to be a survey from the conversation so I'm going to remove the downvote

Read the comments in this thread, read this:

"Social research has shown boys and men increasingly feel alienated, humiliated or uncertain about their place in the world."

We just need to call young men stupid one more time guys and gender equality will be achieved. No wonder they feel they're being lied to.

@CurlyWurlies4All @Fleur_ @Fishnoodle after reading all the comments here, only 1 person commented on the what I think is the reason they published this article.
The fact that social media influencers are driving a wedge between boy and girls.
And the solution....
That attitudes can be changed with education shifts, and some success is being had in Australian schools.

To me the article was to deliver the message. Social media for kids is bad. Changing the curriculum is a good thing.

I genuinely question if this is some sort of trend and not just how it has always been.

Cuz 40% of teenage boys being idiots seems kind of timeless. Definitely lines up with the numbers we're seeing in adult men.

Just remember, folks, divide & conquer is the oldest trick in the book.

They want us fighting the culture wars so we don’t fight the class war.

Lemmy's gender-imbalance is clear in the comment section of this thread. We're getting some variety of opinions, but a pretty obviously narrow frame of reference - and that kind of sucks.

I don't think that a poll which indicates that one in five girls supports violence to resist feminism should be interpreted without any reservations, as this article seems to be doing. The number of adolescents who support endorsing violence in order to mess with uptight pollsters is apparently quite high...

As for lying - it's a matter of fact that people, including women making accusations of serious crimes, sometimes lie. Maybe there's more to that question than is presented in the article?
