Why do guys hurt women physically?


Recommended Posts

When someone was asked why he did what he did, he said very glibly, "Because I could." And, that I believe is why men hit women.

 

There are lots of people who seem to think this is normal and will defend the man and blame the victim. I think this is one of the reasons why men hit women.

 

For women, it would be good to be armed as much as possible and hit him back! This is to send a message that hitting women is definitely not okay! ^_^

hi. sorry for being anal, but there are some fallacies here. for starters:

 

1) the thread title - it assumes that ALL men inherently do this, as if it's an objective truth: that's fallacy dude. but of course if it's just the case with the wording and it holds a different abstracted definition (ie "hindi naman ganoon ang ibig sabihin"), then i won't be a grammar nazi. but that still doesn't make it correct.

 

2) while i do understand it when people say, "ang babae, hindi sinasaktan kung hindi minamahal". of course i agree. we are all people, we are all civil, after all we take pride in being part of some civilization which inscribes laws supposedly for the benefit of the people. but why put women on a pedestal? for centuries women had been making waves in different areas and are calling for true equality. correct me if i'm wrong, but putting them on a pedestal doesn't mean equality. it's really like treating women either as pets or subordinates, you know, sort of like your dog whom you're only fond of as long as it's cute. i thought a woman is ideally supposed to be a man's partner? putting women on a pedestal creates a moral loophole which creates a system that justifies the misdeeds of women. and i think i'm not the only one to say that women can be just as nasty, if not more so, as men. in short, kung ang babae hindi sinasaktan, ang lalaki din hindi sinasaktan, o sa madaling salita, hindi ka naman dapat nananakit ng kahit sinong tao. unless necessary, of course. (however violence is the refuge of the weak din naman). but then again, it's the status quo that prevails - a combination of a false sense of chivalry and the damsel in distress complex seems to be rather addicting to most people that these cliches seem to be the foundation of the relationships some people form.

 

i've met a lot of nasty girls in life, and i'm sure i'll be meeting more of them (sigh). i've never laid a hand on any woman, though there are those few times when i got real mad and almost lost control as there were some of them really wore my patience thin. don't be fooled - most women show violence not through physical means but through a passive-aggressive stance - emotional blackmail, reversal of blame, and deceit that would rival the skills as that of a con artist. i'm not saying that they are completely soulless; rather i'm saying they can be just as devilish as what this thread implicitly insinuates of men.

 

but of course, don't get me wrong. i'm in no way advocating for violence against women. if anything i would probably advocate AGAINST violence against any sentient being, be it human or animal. or more importantly or aptly, i'd like to make a suggestion, i'd ask why do some people hurt other physically?

 

either way, with what i said and with the context of this thread, it's all about POWER. i'll leave the thinking up to you, pagod na ako mag-type.

 

PS it's a good idea for some guys and gals (especially gals) to know how to defend themselves. yes, i said all that s@%t above, but remember that a lot of idiots are violent when drunk or drug-addled.
