Did he include a list of wha he considers provoking behavior?


It's a misleading title. He doesn't condone hitting women at all. I saw it when he said it and I knew people would focus on the don't provoke men. He basically said along with other points that ladies should do all they can to avoid situations like that if they believe violence is a possibility. His wording left too much room for criticism imo.

Probably the usual like talking back or disagreeing.
:childplease: Stop acting naieve you as a woman know damn well women typically do far worse shyt and know exactly which buttons to push. Whether it be foul, disrespectful shyt or getting physical themselves. Its morally wrong for men to beat women in this society but naturally its acceptable. Men are stronger? Well, dont provoke a creature stronger than you then. Itd be like a human provoking a bear....you think that bear gives a fukk if youre weaker? Well you got a whole lot of men thinking like that bear. Not to mention women screaming they wanna be treated as equals but its funny how physical confrontation happens to be an exception:sas1:

Probably means anything that instigates a fight. :manny:
No reason to hit a woman except for self defense but lets not act like there arent women out there who like to provoke people by getting in their faces. The ones i like to see are the ones who act like they can physically fight men. Standing up for yourself is one ting. Provoking is another.

The issue is that we're biologically built to be bigger, stronger, and faster than women. So no, women shouldn't deliberately provoke us but we also have to use more restraint :ld:


So then the argument of them being equal to us is null and void right out of the gates at the molecular and cellular level. :sas1:


Equals are just that.....equal :sas2:

That's true and I think everyone should do all they can to avoid violent situations if possible but unless the person that got beat puts their hands on the other first, the victim should not be accused of "provoking" the behavior of another person. The person who did the hitting is the one at fault.

People have their own ideas of what they consider provoking behavior.

For instance, if im just arguing with a guy and he's reached his limit of listening to me talk but I don't stop, that could be enough provocation for him to beat my ass.

Boy, I tell you....Bill Burr REALLY dropped a gem with this one




I am so sick and tired of people acting like no matter what a woman does, if you respond to them violently then YOU'RE the bad guy. Get the ENTIRE fukk outta here.

You legit have people out here who will bytch if a woman comes at her boyfriend with a knife, and he knocks her silly ass out as a result....talkin' about "well he coulda just grabbed the knife and held her back, because men are the stronger sex and blah blah blah....."

nikka, if you don't SHUT THE fukk UP :why:.......

We JUST had a white chick stab a nikka to death during a domestic fight :mindblown:
