Male Entitlement and Abuse A man’s entitlement plays a significant role in domestic abuse. Perpetrators consider their abusive behaviour to be not only acceptable, but they also believe that it’s justified and that it’s their right and privilege to behave in this way.
Research shows that family violence has long term, detrimental impacts on children. A child does not have to be a direct target of the abuse. Witnessing others being abused has the same impact on a child’s wellbeing and development.

This Masterclass was a weekend workshop held at Phillip Island that was designed to inspire and challenge participants.

Participants from the Heavy M.E.T.A.L Group who work with David Nugent and his team were invited to participate in Episode 3 of the podcast. This podcast is a series about love, abuse and power. Hosted by Jess Hill, this podcast looks deeply at the abuse that happens in private, and in public, searching the world for answers to the questions that continue to confound us. Why does domestic abuse persist? Why do people become abusive? And what can we do to prevent it? From the Victorian Women’s Trust, this is The Trap.
When was the last time you had a proper conversation? One not over SMS or WhatsApp, or messenger, but a natural face-to-face conversation, a two-way exchange about something meaningful? Not a conversation about the weather or the traffic. A genuine face-to-face conversation is valuable when it comes to empowering Men's self-worth and helps with men’s well-being.
The team at Heavy M.E.T.A.L knows the importance of supporting other blokes. Whether you are an outback farmer or a city broker sharing experience with a safe network can be the best way to keep up mental resilience.
