In England, one professor is urging women to have a plan in place to prevent domestic abuse during this year's World Cup. Yes, they are called World Cup Wife Beaters, men who will likely go on a rampage should England not win the Cup or punters lose their bets on....say, Spain.
A specialist in domestic violence at Royal Holloway, University of London, urges women to be prepared for the possibility.
"For some women it may be a case of staying out with friends of family members on England game nights or arranging for their children to go to a friend's house for a sleepover," says Professor Paula Nicolson. "If that is not possible it is crucial that women have relevant phone numbers to hand, and should know where to get help. Simple things like knowing where your mobile phone and car keys are could make all the difference. Many women feel the stigma of domestic abuse so don't feel able to talk to friends or family about the situation. But if they can overcome these feelings it might be advisable to get their friends or family to call them to check up on them during or after a game."
