'Big Eyes' (2014) was on the TV the other day. It doesn't mention abuse or #CoerciveControl and most disturbingly (or well-fittingly) it is a Weinstein production but it is actually an excellent watch to follow the dynamics of coercive and controlling behaviour and its impact./1
The story begins with Margaret just having left her husband and the father of her daughter. He is described as controlling. We get a feeling of her escaping an abusive home. He attempts to remove her from M's care by claiming that she is 'mental unwell'./2
M attempts to rebuild their life. She gets a job in a new city and channels a lot of her love, energy and time into her paintings. She meets Walter while selling paintings on the street. She is in a vulnerable place and needs stable people that she can trust and lean on. /3

Letâs talk about #AndrewTate He was arrested in 2015 for rape. The investigation took 4 years. The CPS decided not to prosecute. In that time he was in Big Brother & ALLOWED to build a name for himself as a self proclaimed misogynist & coercive controller vice.com/en/article/bvmâŠ
He made lots of money from targeting, love bombing & manipulating & exploiting women. He coerced them to go on webcams & perform sexually. He called it the âlover boy method.â I call it coercive control. Itâs a CRIME in đŹđ§
He set up an âacademyâ to teach boys how to groom, exploit & manipulate girls. He called it the âPimpin Hoes Degree.âI call it organised crime, grooming & coercive control. He TOLD everyone what he was doing. Itâs no secret. Itâs on his website too.
#OrangeTheWorld - A thread on reproductive control, coercion and entrapment đ§”

The #familycourts appear to fail to understand, acknowledge and interrupt these dynamics of #coercivecontrol in their current system. (ii)
Many perpetrators of #coercivecontrol will already begin to put pressure on or introduce the idea of a child during the early love bombing phase. (iii)

Letâs talk about the chronic low self-esteem following a campaign of psychological and emotional abuse.

We live in a world that sees physical violence as harmful and psychological/emotional abuse as minor.
A significant reason is down to the fact that physical violence is easier to evidence and so, therefore easier to *SEE*.

And whilst this is true, it fails to understand and acknowledge the severe harm that is inflicted in the absence of physical abuse.
And itâs deep-rooted longevity.

Letâs talk about the trauma of not being believed.

Too many of us have personal experience of not being believed by a person we trust.

2/ this bill is not fit for purpose & hereâs why
Your bill says that the survivors must be able to prove that the abuse was carried out with âan INTENT to control the victimâ

3/ Coercive control is ALL ABOUT disguising abuse with a benevolent intent.
Almost every component of coercive control has a false, BUT superficially good intent.
Letâs go through each component.

As a society, we struggle to recognise false presentation.
We even have an acronym WYSIWYG- What you see is what you get which- a computing term, which applies in a wider context.
Except that with #coercivecontrol abusers what you see is NOT what you get.

Whilst we are told that presentation is important and first impressions count, we seem to *forget* to look behind what is being presented and place reliance on the veneer.
So, of course, we arenât going to recognise an abuser who diligently strives to come across favourably.

And the MOST IMPORTANT thing we need to understand about #coercivecontrol is that the FIRST THING a controller will do is control the image others have of them.

MGK is abusing Megan Fox and no one cares because sheâs not their idea of a âperfectâ victim: a thread đȘĄ
Meganâs friends are concerned for her well-being. If it was a completely healthy relationship, why would âalarm bellsâ be going off?
Colton introduced her to psychedelic drugs that traumatized her early in their relationship
When it comes to recognising and evidencing #coercivecontrol , it is crucial to have an understanding of a whole different set of vocabulary.
Why? Because, in the absence of physical injury, we need to to *see* differently.

âA strategic course of oppressive conduct that is typically characterized by frequent, but low-level physical abuse and sexual coercion in combination with tactics to intimidate, degrade, isolate, and control victimsâ.

An abuser enforces power and control in a number of ways,to dominate and force their victim into submission.
They often do it by deliberately WITHDRAWING their love and affection if their victim doesnât comply with their *rules* or conform to what is expected of them.
They often do it by deliberately WITHDRAWING their love and affection if their victim doesnât comply with their *rules* or conform to what is expected of them.
This deliberate rejection causes confusion and panic in the victim as, often, they donât understand what they did to be ignored in this way.
It is passive violence that can profoundly damage the person on the receiving end.

Can't get over how this whole genocide is a macro example of how coercive control/abuse turns into deadly violence. 1st they get you to alienate or withdraw from those around you, make false promises, make you believe you can trust them. Then... 1/4

Comes the gaslighting, the fake stories to everyone around you to make you seem irrational, then when you or anyone begins to question them they get physical. Now, they try and convince you it isn't their fault(someone else made them do it), let's just talk it out, they say: 2/4
If only YOU do x,y,z then THEY won't hurt you anymore. That's a lie, the next time will be worse, then if you try & escape/get help they threaten to kill you, everyone you love, and even threaten to kill themselves(nuclear). We see this dynamic on a micro scale all the time! 3/4

Thanks @outofhiscontrol for sharing this. Exactly what I was looking for. I'm going to comment on this knowing it is draft form.
In reading the case study after para 195 I was happy to see how high quality mental health services for a child survivor was presented. My other reaction was to the invisibility of her perpetrator father, who she is still having contact with.
Her ambivalent,totally understandable feelings about him are the center of the counseling. Yet there is zero mention of: whether or not he is engaging in continuing post separation #coercivecontrol; the quality of his parenting toward her and coparenting with her other parent;
