1 in 10 men is not a man. He's an adult boy.

Rednecks.

I wonder how many women think it's acceptable to hit a man.

After this.........I'm thinking 1 out of 10.

Not me. If a man hits me I'm shooting him.

Brenda Brenda:

Rednecks.

Some, yes. Certainly not all.

It appears the reporter opted to take the low numbers to arrive at the "nearly one in ten" when it could (using the same margin of error) be read as "nearly 95% of Alberta men feel physically assaulting a woman is unacceptable".

Funny things them stats...

So I guess you're okay with a man shooting a woman that hits him!

Not at all.

Women often abuse men, so I'd love to see the question posed to women as well.

It's socially acceptable for a woman to assault a man.

There's not much interest or ratings in a news story that says "Study proves vast, vast majority of adult males aren't vile, evil, bullying bastards". MSM = strictly for attention/cash/spreading fear.

Men who don't hit women don't need to worry about it.
