Sarah Isaac is currently researching the topic of men as victims of domestic violence at National Geographic and is looking for a younger male victim/survivor who is happy to talk on camera.
The reason behind this being that they want to highlight that this is a global and not domestic story.
The show that she is researching on behalf of, Taboo, is National Geographic’s most successful show.
Taboo is a long-running prime-time documentary series on the National Geographic Channel. The series presents an in-depth analysis of human behaviours and customs from around the world. As the title suggests, the focus is on practices that some countries or cultures might consider strange.
But often things that are considered taboo are not well understood. In each episode, personal stories are presented alongside analysis from leading academics and experts in the relevant field.
Part of the reason for this success is their observational documentary style of shooting. In recent years female violence against men has become more public affair, it would seem that there a quite few contributing factors, but above all, there seems to be very little support by way of shelter for men that are in this situation.
Violence against men seems to be a largely untold story and is something that they are really interested in featuring.
If you are able to assist Sarah, please contact her at the details below.

they are looking for “one male victim?” are these people mentally defective? try not insulting the victims by using a singular case and do a series of interviews with some of the thousands of male victims.
why don’t you cover “violence against men in mainstream media” first just to get a glimpse of the size of the issue?

I agree Jim, this is a great thing and I cannot wait to see if there is any positive outcomes from this, even though I won’t hold my breath to see any decent changes away from constantly abusing men at the whim of abusive women.
Jim, you mentioned your website. What is its address?
And you also mentioned, “**WHOLE Natural Biological FAMILY** as Created by God – **NOT** – UN&Govt lead Eugenics or the Sexually Deviant or Religious Bigotry”
Are you saying that ‘all religion’ including traditional Orthodox Christianity is bigotry?
Or are you only speaking of the radical fringes of religion where the liberals are who say they are Christian/religious, but also tollerate abortion, homosexuality and people living together?
Because it has been the nuclear family of Mary, Joseph and Jesus, that the modern day nuclear family was based on, which is also the basic building block of todays society that is found in most countries around the world.
Further back in the Old Testament days, God allowed a man to have many wives, which was out of necessity to populate the earth more quickly. Things changed when Christ gave us new rules by which to live for the purposes of procreation and guidance of our young.
