 :::::::::::There seems to be confusion regarding the category ""violence against men"". When warring armies of men hate and then kill each other, that is not “violence against men”, as the category is defined.  As I understand it, the category is supposed to reflect gender based violence against men, similar to the “violence against women” category, so being placed in that category would mean the men were targeted and killed because the killer thought there was something “wrong” or “inferior” about the male gender, similar to a hate crime.  Clearly Rodger was jealous of men who got to have sex with women, but jealousy doesn’t  typically qualify as a hate crime.  Tbe category “violence against men” really doesn’t seem to fit here and is not supported by any reliable sources I've seen.  I haven't seen any reliable sources describe this as a hate crime against men.  ."
