We need to stop normalising behaviours that put women down and disguise them as "just a joke" or "a sign of love."

Weaponised incompetence isn't a quirk.

Jealousy isn't a love language.

Violent jokes aren't funny.

These are tactics used to diminish, control, and silence.

At Solace, we see through the excuses.

If you’re a survivor of domestic abuse, Solace is here for you.

In the context of domestic abuse, minimisation is when a person downplays their harmful behaviour to make it seem less serious.

They might say something like ‘it wasn’t that bad’ or ‘you’re over reacting’ instead of taking responsibility for their actions.

We understand how invalidating and isolating this can feel.

If you’ve experienced minimisation, Solace is here for you.

What does a healthy relationship actually look like? It starts with respect, safety, and support.

Green flags in a partner, from handling conflict calmly to celebrating your success, represent the foundation of what we all deserve in a partnership.

These behaviours reflect a relationship built on equality rather than control.

Violence against women and girls doesn't happen in isolation.

It is fuelled by gender inequality and the attitudes and behaviours we too often dismiss as "normal".

Challenging everyday sexism helps create a culture where women and girls are safe, respected and heard.

Because it doesn't start with violence.

If you are a survivor of domestic abuse, Solace is here for you.

These are the words of a survivor who accessed Solace’s services.

If any part of this feels familiar, please know you are not alone.

You deserve privacy, safety, and control over your own space.

Negging can sound like many things.

Backhanded compliments, subtle digs, or “jokes” that don’t quite land, but at its core, it’s about making someone doubt their confidence.

Negging isn’t flirting. It’s manipulation.
