:wtf:

The reactions are similar. Finding online reaffirmation examples to fortify niqqas beliefs that they're victims of shyt when in reality, they're far and few between.


I've posted vids. And I've also said IN THIS VERY SAME THREAD...

no man should hit a woman unless your life is threatened.

No real man should be afraid of a woman. No woman should live in fear of a man. However, every man should realize a woman can be a threat. (same way every woman should realize a man can be a threat)

Its called mitigating the circumstances.

A few vids posted of women being DEAD WRONG. Doesnt make me think Ray Rice should have got just a 2 game suspension as well. I thought he deserved more.

The vids arent to represent "Men should be afraid of being victims"
They represent the gray area in which walking away, ignoring, doing nothing doesnt necessarily cease the problem in every situation.

If anything. The men that dont hit back. Is to give them a salute for being strong enough not to hit when the woman was dead ass in the wrong.

There is a difference between self defense and domestic violence. Even though I dont think a man should hit......I understand that isnt a reality for everyone.

A man shoving a woman off of him as she's hitting him is self defense.

A man shoving a woman off of him that hit him once and then beating her ass is domestic violence.

No one here condones the latter. Or at least I hope they dont.

While some will debate that Stephen A. had a poor choice of words, he had already apologized with great sincerity. So, why the suspension all of a sudden?

I think this is because Michelle Beadle had an overreaction (gee, what a surprise to that one [/sarcasm]). Beadle can disagree with Stephen A.'s interpretation freely, but IMO she took it too far trying to bring rape talk into the conversation when it clearly wasn't about that.

No..:no I didn't.

You think that broad beating on dude is REALLY common enough to be used as counter leverage against domestic abuse at the hand of men? Do you? If not, then for what other reason is that even being brought up? I got attacked by a broad with my son in her hands and retaliated by shaking the shyt outta her. I also blame myself for knowing she was a crazy chick, but unlike single moms who keep their relationships separate from their kids, me as an inexperienced single dad put her in my daughters life too soon and put her relationship with my daughters ahead of my own. I've been down that road many women experienced being single mothers and what comes with it. And yes....my ass is responsible seeing the red flags (chick dug into my phone two weeks after meeting her) and ignoring it. ONLY because of my daughters. But I still ain't using that as an example of "women are out chea beating men up just as much" shyt dudes are trying to dog whistle in here. It's not in my current marriage and wasn't what I experienced prior to that fiasco. Some things are far and few between, yet you riding for niqqas trying to make it commonplace. That's no different than a right wing bigot taking some isolated act online and saying "see!!! They're just as bad!!

Let's be fukking adults... fukk that...let's be men.

See this all the time in here when it comes to rapes and sexual assaults.

"But what about the chicks who falsely accuse?"...like that 5%, as disgusting as it is, isn't absolutely dwarfed by convictions and unreported incidents.

It's the "bu...bu...what about black-on-black crime?!?" play

over the last few days, i realize a lot of men just hate women. Hate women speaking up for themselves, being in the workplace, etc.


A lot of you brehs have serious issues.

I've been going hard on this cause I hate the situation and the insane double standard going on. I'm usually quick to defend women, have a large number of female friends (sounds like a racist saying I have black friends I know), and I'm usually quick to stand up and support them. But in this situation Beadle was completely unprofessional airing dude out on twitter like that. She misinterpreted his words and took them to the most negative extreme. Attached his words to rape and insulting the LGBT community. She completely dismissed his apology. Due to doing all this caused a man to get suspended for a week. Yet her fukked up behavior is being lauded as commendable and honorable.

It has nothing to do with hating women as much as seeing bullshyt for what it is. Don't get it twisted their are definitely some women haters that are piling on out of hatred for women but I think moreso people seeing the bullshyt for what it is and the insane double standard being applied.

The problem is that most people can't just attack the bullshyt. They have to attack not only the purveyors of said bullshyt but everybody who looks like them. People shouldn't hit other people. It's that simple. No more needs to be said. However people gotta ride for their side so it becomes a bunch of rhetoric ranging from completely empty to straight up disturbing and sad.

Frankly Steven A. got what was coming to him. They play this "we aren't afraid to touch on any topic" game and the entire basis of their show is to court controversy in order to get viewers. Well it bit him in the ass. Beadle will get her's too. She comes off as the type to get too big for her britches, so it's only a matter of time.

To me true domestic violence is a man that hauls off and hits a woman first. While I personally would not retaliate with my fists I have absolutely no sympathy for a woman that starts hitting a man and gets hit back. Both genders need to keep their damn hands off of their partners. A woman can just as easily bust up a man's lip or black his eye even if she doesn't fully hurt him. That could have him looking bad at his job and fukk with his money. So I could easily see how a man can snap and retaliate with violence.

Someone else put it best when they said it's best to vet your partner over time and know when to move on before that situation presents itself.

I got locked up when responding to a chick that hit me with my then six month old son in her hands. AND? I'm Supposed to act like it's something common place to nourish the need to affirm some flawed stance? NO. I'm not about to act as if it's a 50-50 chance that a man may face domestic abuse at the hands of a woman. It's not the same. Dog....ACT like you're the stronger sex and KNOW that some of us abuse it. I lost two female friends to domestic abuse. My in laws mom was shot dead by her husband in a murder suicide. Got an Indian chick here in my job that's missed three weeks of work after getting her ass beat by her husband (major issue in Indian culture). Another Indian chick that works for my wife just moved out the house at 27 after she got beat up by her dad because he didn't put ice in a glass of water she gave him. Women aren't on par with the shyt we bring...yet you'll post a video as if it reaffirms that rather than that video being far and few between.

Niqqas hate responsibility. I'm a chauvinist. And I know the responsibility that comes with being the stronger sex.

Telling domestic abuse victims not to "provoke" their man into beating them, is similar to the "she shouldn't have got drunk/wore that outfit" example of victim blaming that's way too common.
