I'm just curious. I been seeing alot of articles about women being targeted and brutalized in the England. I'm curious as to why or how women are treated like that in such a developed nation. It's really sad to see because I think of England as being this gentleman like nation lol. Any theories?

'Needle Spiking' of Women in Britain Stirs Alarm Over New Kind of Assault

NOTTINGHAM, England — Lizzie Wilson was standing in a crowded nightclub Monday night with three friends when she felt a sharp pinch in her back, as if she had been pricked by a needle. Ten minutes later, she was struggling to stand. Wilson, 18, said she had heard about young women being injected...

That's my guess
 
Smells like another moral panic. Surely they did blood and urine screens on these women. No mention of the results, so they must have been negative. Assholes have been slipping mickeys in drinks since at least the 1800's, but I highly doubt anyone is being injected with needles in the club.
 
RE: the hot potato

I have read that England now is even more politically correct than this country (and that is saying a lot).

So I do not know whether England identifies bashers of women by ethnicity or nationality (probably not).

But I agree that probably (probably) the majority of bashers are from certain cultures where bashing women is just part of their way of life.
 
There is also another reason that can be given as to why abuse has risen.

https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/domestic-abuse-and-covid-19-a-year-into-the-pandemic/

The Crime Survey for England and Wales showed that 1.6 million women and 757,000 men had experienced domestic abuse between March 2019 and March 2020, with a 7% growth in police recorded domestic abuse crimes.

Although there is limited official data so far on the impact of lockdown on domestic abuse, the Office for National Statistics (ONS) report that in mid-May 2020, there was a 12% increase in the number of domestic abuse cases referred to victim support. Between April and June 2020, there was a 65% increase in calls to the National Domestic Abuse Helpline, when compared to the first three months of that year.
