i think, is the image. that men are ravening wolves, woman helpless lambs. he believes that justice is far more lop-sided than the 60/40 the statistics would indicate.
I know several guys who got assaulted by their GF or wives. And you know what happened when they got a restraining order? She got one, too, then claimed abuse, and got to take their house.
That is what happened b/c the court ALWAYS BELIEVES THE WOMAN.
hell, Mary Winkler murdered her man, suggested maybe he abused her, and walked with the insurance money.
This is why we object so strenuously to feminism. B/c feminists today are running up the score, turning the once-patriarchal powers against men, and becoming the evil they once opposed.
This is what that nobel prize winner was talking about. It's nasty business.
Incidentally, I'd bet that all the estrogen-mimicking chemicals in the environment have something to do with it. They are making men less manly and women more agressive.
In any case, if any woman hit me, I'd hit her back twice as hard, b/c that is self-defense. And I am not going to wait for someone to break my bones to fight back. But I know that only I would go to jail for it. And that is why feminism is rotten (and Hillary is a menace).
Why is it funny when a woman assaults a man?
I dunno. But I'm sure its for about the same reason that its "funny" when a man gets kicked in the nuts-- particularly by a woman.
That's actually been something that's always amazed me-- how, as a society, we can be so matronizing about male violence towards women, and yet completely silent when its the other way around. Hollywood loves the "kick in the nuts" gag. And yet if you imagine something similar happening to a woman, the hue and cry would be enormous.
And, btw, ladies, if you think you're immune to being "kicked in the nuts" -- think again.... it is quite possible to get "kicked in the ovaries", it just takes a little more aim and practice (or more luck if done accidently) and from what I've read and been told, its every bit as agonizing (read: down on the ground writhing around) as it is for the guys.
Personally, I think getting "kicked in the ovaries" should be a required experience for women, but that's just my own opinion and I'm sure the femnazis would spin it in some other direction-- like my latent hostility toward women or some bullshit like that. NO. I'm not latently hostile toward women. I'm OVERTLY HOSTILE to femnazi bitches. Regular women I'm quite fond of.
Of course there's another angle too-- why do guys (girls too many? I dunno) find it so amusing / "funny" / "fun to watch" when two girls go at it and have a "bitch fight"? I'm sure part of it is the sheer novelty of it. Its not something you often see or encounter. Another is probably the difference in fighting style-- women seem to fight differently then men do (sure, why not? They're not men) And I'm sure there's also the prurient interest-- nay, strike that, I'm POSITIVE of it-- that the men watching (and perhaps the women too) are secretly hoping the fight will get out-of-hand and clothes will start flying.
But I doubt those are all the reasons-- it has something to do with deep down "psyche prototype" feelings toward women, about women-- what women are, what they do, how they act, how they behave and interact in society. That physical violence, for the most part-- except when protecting her cubs-- is a deep down social oddity, not quite a taboo-- but very very unusual so as to have the allure of a "dancing bear" when it happens (its not that the bear dances the waltz, its that the bear dances at all).
"Is there a couple alive who hasn't had a loud shouting argument that they regret later" (or whatever your actual quote was-- I'm too lazy to go back and copy-n-paste it..
I'd say "Yes, most definitely". My wife and I rarely fight and when we do its generally pretty civil. And we're usually pretty good about saying what we need to say and listening to what the other one is trying to say-- not necessarily agreeing-- but at least trying to listen.
I should also point out that we are both financially able to support ourselves, have outside jobs/careers w/responsibilities that we have control over, and have both had previous marriages and opportunities to get our "ya ya's" out, so to speak-- so our marriage is very much a partnership of equals.
Recently we've had a new baby boy whom we both love and adore and take turns taking care of and doing all the things that need to be done. It can get tricky at times balancing a career with family, but we are both committed to it, and family comes first (at least with me anyway :)
We have issues, same as anybody, but we rarely lose our cool about it-- in fact, in thinking back, I'm hard-pressed to think of even one time.
So I would say to anybody who is having a different experience, WHY are you fighting? What good does it do you? Does anything change? (For the better?) Or do you just hit the same old notes and sing the same sad songs over and over?
There is a difference between an ARGUMENT-- which does not need to involve yelling, cursing, name-calling, intimidation, ultimatums or physical violence-- and a FIGHT, which typically includes many/most of those things. If you find yourself yelling, or engaging in any of those behaviors-- you're probably not "ARGUING" but "FIGHTING" and you should take a deep breath, remember who it is you're there with, and take a time-out, step away (even if it means "loss of face") and come back later when you're less upset. And if the other person won't let it go-- stay away for awhile. Do whatever you need to do to get OUT of the situation until tempers calm and cooler heads can prevail.
If you profess to love someone, why would you want to hurt them by fighting? If you love them, walk away until you can just talk it out.
