Unless she asked for it. Then that’s a whole 'nother kettle of fish.
Me? Yes, I do. I also agree that women who hit men are scum too.
I remember we had another thread about people intervening if they saw a man and woman arguing loudly (or a man yelling at a woman) and someone posted a youtube.com link of a scenario where a woman seemed to be physically abusing a man and a lot of observers thought it was no big deal or that the man deserved it. (Whereas people ended up calling the police when they thought they saw a man abusing a woman.)
he asked in a flat, emotionless voice. His eyes, though, carried death in them. Death…and justice.
And one eye booger.
To clarify…
-
Do you mean that you think 85% - 95% of domestic violence is perpetrated by men? (The claim was “85% - 95% of domestic violence victims are female”.)
-
You agree that women who hit men are scum, do you not?
Same difference.
Nope. It’s not the same thing. Sorry. I see that assertion as nothing but an attempt to obscure the problem of male on female violence through bullshit, childish equivalency.
I answered you question, now you answer mine. You would agree that only a pathetic piece of garbage puts his hands on a woman, do you not?
he said softly, nearly whispered. Jimmy Joe felt the Angel of Death hovering near.
If you’re trying to troll me, it isn’t working. You’re completely wide of the mark in how I perceive myself. It only hurts if it’s true.
Even that isn’t open and shut. Say she’s coming at you with a carving knife? Are you a pathetic piece of garbage if you defend yourself?
Self-defense is always stipulated. That kind of answer is just evasive.
Diogenes, have you heard that several thousands of years ago, so-called civilization invented a device, capable of being a force multiplier to the armless, called a “weapon”. You should look it up sometime.
I’ll take that as a “yes”, you think that 85%+ of domestic violence is perpetrated by males. I think it is somewhat less, while also acknowledging that a majority of domestic violence is perpetrated by males. Therefore (this was easy…) I believe a more accurate number is… (wait for it… ) (wait for it… ) somewhere between 51% and 84%.
Yes, I do agree that you are a pathetic piece of garbage.
No, more like a sputtering old geezer shaking his cane and growling “You dang kids get off my lawn!!”
Not evasive, an unfortunate fact of life. Of course more men abuse women than vice versa, they’re the stronger sex. But there are plenty of violent wives out there too. Men aren’t always at fault in these situations.
Your performance in every thread where abuse of women or children is discussed, and a fair number of gun threads too, says otherwise.
Okay, okay, Diogenes the Cynic, at this point you’re just contradicting yourself, making absolute assertions and then immeditely flip-flopping, and, uh… well, it looks like somebody needs either a Xanax or a nap. (And it might be me!)
In any event… your buttons are so easy to push, and you have so many of them, that me carrying on with you any further would be a waste of my time and, frankly, perhaps just a wee bit trollish. I mean, with just the slightest poke you fume and sputter like a cranky old steam engine. It’s funny, don’t get me wrong, it just gets old after a while and doesn’t really accomplish anything.
Obviously you aren’t up for honest debate or a frank and open exchange of ideas, so I’m going to stop trying now.
Toodles!!
This thread is boring - I’m going to go pistol-whip my girlfriend.
A friend of mine whose Father beat his Mother described what he and his brother did. They took the light bulb out of the outside hallway to the apartment, (this was Brooklyn in the 1940’s) and jumped him when he came home in his cups. They beat the shit out of him and escaped unrecognized.
Maybe she just wouldn’t listen.
