More Dutch People Find It Justifiable for a Man to Hit His Wife: 'Shocking'
A study by the University of Amsterdam and Tilburg University reveals that acceptance of domestic violence against women has increased in the Netherlands, with 15.8% of respondents now finding it justifiable for a man to hit his wife. State Secretary Judith Tielen (VVD) described the trend as shocking, noting that resistance to such violence has declined since 2012. Researchers attribute this shift to changing societal views and conservative influences, while also reporting increased feelings of insecurity among women regarding sexual harassment.
