Can a real man shoot them?
We are kind of assuming that the woman who would hit the ‘real man’ is smaller and weaker. I am big guy and pretty strong, but there are some MMA women who could literally beat me to death, even if I was hitting back.
I remember when the Chris Brown / Rhianna thing happened and everyone was painting Rhianna as this innocent victim.
From what I read both of them were violently attacking eachother and both of them were known to act out violently. It doesn’t excuse what Chris Brown did but it does make both of them despicable people in my mind.
Woman should not be violent towards men and men should not be violent towards women.
While I believe the public shunning of Chris Brown was fully deserved in the aftermath I always felt Rhianna got off too easy.
Sorry but what does that mean? I’ve never heard that expression before.
only if they are continuing to attack you. If they hit you once and then back off or stop, you have no justification for hitting them. Many of the comments above seem to indicate that if someone hits you, even if they stop, then it’s still ok to hit them. It’s not.
why is it any different? If your date/spouse hits you even once, you pack up and leave, you don’t even think about it. If there’s a baby, you take it with you instead of leaving it with a violent person. Women do this all the time. I don’t see how it’s different when the man is the one being abused.
You want to be the person who initiates violence, then you’d best be ready to own what that buys you. Doesn’t matter whether you are an innie or an outie.
It’s not quite that simple in reality. You don’t know that someone who backs off has stopped unless they run away altogether. You don’t know that someone who is down is not going to get up. But there is still your choice to run away, which is what you should if you can, even before the fight starts. So I’d say it’s not really about justifying any more violence as it is about your alternatives, you need to be safe and/or protect others and you should be doing that any way possible with violence as the last resort. That will eliminate all but rare cases where you even have to consider one more blow, or even fighting to an end when you can put an end to it otherwise.

Presumably as in “Shut your”. I kinda like it, actually.
That’s why you just put a plastic bag over her head, no bruises
This is the assumption she is making, yes if you hit in revenge or because you are stronger the motive is not good. What she fails to consider is hitting for other reasons, such as to stop a attack.
My ex wife was a violent alcoholic, she was always hitting me over the head with bottles, dishes, whatever she happened to pick up. One time she tried to jump on my face while I was sleeping with high heel shoes. I chased her down and paddled her ass purple and promised her no deed would ever go unanswered again. She called the cops on me and because it was only her ass they let me slide. Today I would have gone to jail. She never hit me again.
Or captures it in comic form.
Giving me a ration of shit, trying to provoke a response. No idea why, but I ignored it for the most part. I probably wouldn’t even have reacted to a missed kick except that when I blocked it with my hand, it hurt like a bitch, and I have a very short fuse.
I suspect this was all a big misunderstanding. GlowingDarkness’s coworker probably said he wasn’t a “real man” because of his interest in having his genitals removed.
An abused woman with a baby doesn’t have a complicated situation? The way to deal with an abusive relationship is to end it. But that’s something easier said than done–no matter which gender is being abused.
