as to why women and men consider it cute when a man is beaten by a woman is that deep down women completely disrespect any man who either
a.) capitulates to a woman (common term: p-whipped)
b.) defies a woman (common terms: jerk, asshole)
Which places the location of the two sides of the cage firmly around all men that women have put there to control us.
Which man is he who is capable of working around the limits of the cage? The man that finds innovative ways to meet women's expectations.
It is a cagey and deep control placed over us men. Men instinctively know it is there, but we have been programmed, through generations of being hand selected for our capitulation to this cage, to reject thrashing at the cage.
So, like the cliched women of yore who, if they defied the husband, were beaten, men are still caught in that cage. This is why it is so funny and cute to see a woman beat a man.
