A man may also not be safe around a woman (or another man).
Aside from that, a woman may not be safe around another woman either.
This constant focus on women (or girls) only needs to stop.

But it isn’t a constant focus on women only. This is one initiative in a parliament that will last 5 years and pass innumerable bills and other measures. Having said that, if one thing is a bigger problem than another, there shouldn’t be any problem with giving a higher profile to attempts to address it. Nothing in these measures says male-on-male or female-on-male violence isn’t a thing. Just that violence against women is more of a thing and needs more attention.
