It does. The point is that 1/3 of the victims have nowhere to turn. Almost all the help is directed at women, with active hostility to male “victims”. This leaves abused men nowhere to turn.
It’s also worth noting that many places have extremely gender biased rules/laws when it comes to domestic violence. The default is often to just arrest the male. This both creates a bias in the data, as well as allowing some women to weaponise domestic violence laws.
Men are also far less likely to be believed, and so report less.
It may well be men are more violent, once these are accounted for, but the bias is far less than the raw statistics make out.
