Tom Elliott thinks it time to address why male violence continues to be a prominent issue in our society.

He believes that offering services such an counselling for men may be a potential answer to this serious problem.

“I don’t feel like I should be responsible for the actions of a minority,” he said on 3AW Mornings.

There are calls for tougher penalties for violence against women amid a recent surge in male and domestic violence.

CEO of Protective Group and advocate of Domestic Violence Victim Survivors, Stephen Wilson told Tom Elliott “men need to change their attitudes in general”.

“Not all men behave in such a manner but clearly its mainly men that are perpetrators,” Mr Wilson said on 3AW Mornings.
