dc.description.notesGeneral Overview: This is an Australian paper written in response to an article entitled, ‘Dishonesty in the Domestic Violence Industry’ by Michael Woods, a Senior Lecturer at the University of Western Sydney.<br/ ><br/ >Objective: The paper aims to address Woods’ claims of gender bias in the violence against women field, criticisms against the White Ribbon Campaign, other domestic violence campaigns and the statistics they use.<br/ ><br/ >Discussion: The paper rejects Wood’s claims of gender bias in analyses of domestic violence and violence against women. Flood explores definitions of and ways of measuring violence against women. Woods’ claims of violence by women are responded to, along with Woods’ comments on violence against children and violence against males. Flood points out the incorrect or misleading use of the tables from the ABS (2006) Personal Safety Survey figures by Woods, and presents the correct use of these figures to underline his argument about the extent of men’s violence. The paper also responds to Wood’s claims of a ‘domestic violence industry’. Contextual factors which contribute to violence are examined. The paper also addresses the criticisms of the White Ribbon Campaign.<br/ ><br/ >Conclusions: The paper concludes that Woods’ article gives an inaccurate account of the White Ribbon Campaign, other domestic violence campaigns and the surveys on which they use, and distracts from the real issues that need to be addressed to prevent violence against women.en
