Erin Patria Margaret Pizzey CBE (/ˈpɪtsi/;[2] born 19 February 1939) is a British ex-feminist, men's rights activist and advocate against domestic violence, and novelist.[3][4][5][6][7] She is known for having started the first and currently the largest domestic violence shelter in the modern world, Refuge, then known as Chiswick Women's Aid, in 1971.[8][1][9]
Pizzey says that she has been the subject of death threats and boycotts because her experience and research into the issue led her to conclude that most domestic violence is reciprocal, and that women are as capable of violence as men. These threats eventually led to her exile from the UK.[10][11] Pizzey has said that the threats were from militant feminists.[12][13][14] She has also stated that she is banned from the refuge she started.[15][16]
