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.
Gee, and is it any wonder I do not trust women at all and refuse to consider marriage or a relationship with one?
Is it any wonder more and more guys are just playing women too??
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.
Do you have any documentation on where to aim? I want to help continue to level the playing field a bit in case I get hit again by a woman.
Women have some nerve thinking they are immune to being struck back for their crap.
1. The self-described feminists (NOW in CA aside, since I still haven't seen a link to that factoid) see domestic violence and verbal abuse of men by women as WRONG.
2. The Usual Suspects (and a few new feminazi bitch-haters or whatever the kids are calling themselves these days) think women are scum and ought to be hit back.
Now we know why Broadsheet doesn't cover this topic that much, P. Jim. I mean, I'm glad they are, but it certainly isn't solving the dysfunctional comments-section problem.
And please post a link to NOW's statement about shelters for men. I don't want to support them if they are really against such shelters, but I prefer to read their opinion on the matter for myself. Thanks.
Between 1956 and 1968, my mother had 8 kids and one miscarriage that occurred well into the second trimester. One of my sisters died in 1967 after being in and out of the hospital her entire 3 years on the planet. It was a bad time for my family and my mother did not handle it well. She flipped out on a couple of occasions and pounded my father on his back and shoulders. My father never hit her. My oldest brother, as a teenager tried to beat up my father once. My father could have easily beaten the crap out of him, but he didn’t. In both cases, my father realized he was far stronger and he could stop the damage being done to himself without physically harming his attacker. I find it disturbing that men on this thread are posting how they’d hit a woman back if they were hit. It sounds almost gleeful. That has nothing to do with self-defense, that’s petty revenge.
And I’m not excusing women who hit. Hitting is stupid no matter who does it. I’ve disciplined more than one teenage girl for slapping or kicking boys who made them angry. I don’t care how justified they are in their anger, and they are often very justified, they lose my sympathy and get in far greater trouble than the boy, even if his ruthless teasing started it. The idea that because they are “the weaker sex” they can get away with hitting is stupid and I discourage that line of thinking whenever I can.
One myth that needs to be dispelled is that women are the weaker sex. My fight class teacher was a woman, and she was, and still is, quite capable of beating most men to a pulp. She's not a giant or a bodybuilder, she's just fit and trained. If you know how to fight, you don't even need the fit part. For example, one quick jab to a person's throat will incapacitate them long enough for you to attack them further, and so on and so on.
If we can get past that sexist nonsense about women being the weaker sex, we can get to the underlying issue, which is that is it never okay to batter someone, regardless of the gender of the attacker or victim. It's an immoral and criminal act, period.
You make a good point, but let’s be realistic. I don’t know any woman who knows how to fight. Yea, we should all take classes and learn how to defend ourselves, but who has time for that? Not me. When I was young, I had a boyfriend who was very slight. 5’7, and at 130 pounds, he weighed less than 10 pounds more than me. We would get into silly wrestling matches. I was in better physical condition that he was. I tried hard to win these matches and I never did because he was far stronger than me. My ex-husband is 6’4, 250 pounds. Even a strong, fit, trained woman would have a hard time defending herself against him. Let’s face it, on average, men are stronger than women. My argument is that, despite this, women still don’t have an excuse in hitting men. That’s retarded. People, regardless of their gender and strength, shouldn’t hit each other.
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.
Much of the initial coverage about Fort Hood turned out to be wrong. Is there anything wrong with that?
