I've never hit a woman in my life but in all honesty I wouldn't let that ***** abuse me like that.
predicting evidence does not disprove it. I agree with most of what you say, but getting an INB4 on an argument does not make it irrelevant. so WHY is the 'amazingathiest' a 'fucking idiot'?manic_depressive13 said:Them stupid bitches. They want equal rights but don't want to face the consequences of their violent actions! They think they can do whatever they want! Stupid women! Feminist idiots! We need to beat some sense into those whores!
The majority of posts are going to be along these lines, even though if you take careful note, not a single girl is going to support that individual's actions. She should be prosecuted and thrown into prison, just as any male should if he did that to a person. Ideally, no one should hit anyone. If someone becomes violent, they should be subdued, not attacked in return, and then they should be charged for their crimes. This applies regardless of sex or gender. If women are getting more lenient sentences, this should be immediately rectified, and any proper feminist would agree with me. Also, why didn't the people who filmed that shit try to help?
Along with the misogynistic comments in this thread, people are going to cite a social experiment in which they got two actors, one male and one female, and had the girl beat on the guy. Many people walked by without trying to help. They will argue that this is some sort of reverse sexism, but they would do well to note that in the end it was not men who helped the lad, but a few women who called her out. The gender roles that perpetuate the idea that men are stronger or more capable than women are the result of a male dominated society which seeks to promulgate its power. Feminism wishes to erase these gender roles so that everyone is seen as equal and judged on their own merits, as individuals.
Someone will also post a video by someone called the "AmazingAtheist" on youtube. That guy is a fucking idiot and you are merely discrediting your argument.
Well yeah. People are brutal to each other regardless of sex, race, age, etc. It's not acceptable for anyone to do it so I dunno why you singled out women as being ore brutal. The fact of the matter is simply that they are no more, no less brutal than men, men just tend to be a lot less likely to report it out of fear that no one will believe them or that they will be seen as weak for being beaten up by their girlfriend.HardkorSB said:Just watch this, simply incredible:
Maybe it's important to point it out when women are violent because there seems to be this public attitude that only men are violent. In the US we have the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), not the Act Against Domestic Violence and not a separate act to protect men. See the bias? See why it's important to counter what feminism has taught in the last 50 years?Mallefunction said:Well yeah.

I'm going to find you, rob you, then give you your stuff back and go "HAH!!".saruman31 said:hahah but the chance of getting robbed is pretty slim and the robber being a girl is close to 0
What course of action did she have left? Drop his ass on the curb, not make a fool of herself.boag said:The dude isnt showing self control out of some form of Chivalry, the dude is showing self control because of Guilt.
He cheated on her, and the only way she found to deal with her frustration and anger was to beat the crap out of him. Was it smart? No. Was it rational? No. Was it even Justified? nope.
But seriously what course of action did she have left?
there is no legislation available to protect people in this position.
He probably didn't defend himself because he knew if he did he would go to jail.boag said:The dude isnt showing self control out of some form of Chivalry, the dude is showing self control because of Guilt.

Its not so much this one video, but rather a greater social phenomena that causes this debate. The place equal rights comes in is exactly that she WON'T get the same legal punishments that a man would. By and large the western world gives women shorter punishments, in nicer facilities and more frequent conditional sentences. In fact Britain is currently looking at eliminating womens prisons all together.Colour-Scientist said:I don't even understand how equal rights came into the equation. She hit the guy and was put down forcefully by the police, what else would people have liked to happen? If the people (both men and women) on the train were in any way decent they would have stopped her, but they didn't, that's on them.
She will be put through legal punishments, the same as a man would have been if he had been in that position.
Simple answer, because he's a guy. Yes, there is a double standard in regards to women hitting men.aba1 said:I gotta ask why is nobody helping that guy?
