 There€€€s some interesting statistics here: 
  
  
  
 €€€98% of the men who call [the ManKind helpline] are undergoing 
 psychological abuse, 82% coercive controlling behaviour, 69% physical abuse 
 and 29% economic abuse. (ManKind Initiative)€€€ 
  
 and 
  
 €€€One in five men (21.7%) said they have been a victim of domestic abuse in 
 their lifetime (5.1 million). They consist of 41% of all victims. (ONS) 
 (2023/24) 
  
 One in fifteen men (6.5%) said they were a victim of domestic abuse in 
 2023/24 (1.5 million men). They consist of 40% of all victims. (ONS) 
 (2023/24) 
  
 One in five to six men (18.3%) have been a victim of partner abuse in their
