Glamorizing Violence Against Males

Men Get Manhandled by Women for Alley Cat Magazine

These “reverse violence” editorials have lost most of their shock value because we run into them so often. However, just in case some dude may get his panties in a bunch and get offended at the “reverse violence” reference, let’s not forget that presently and historically women have usually been on the receiving end of physical abuse in all its different forms.

But back to the business at hand. This spread, which is called “Just One Of The Boys,” comes from Alley Cat Magazine. The images we see are not overtly violent but the intent is undeniable.

The models are Anais, Dennis, Tanita, Alexis, and Paul Izaio. The photography was done by Frauke Fischer.
