Why are you being so stupid about this?


Why are you being a dense little twat?

The things on the poster do not constitute abuse

The poster very clearly states that those behaviours are abuse. Explicitly using the words abuse in at least two instances.

Anyone who doesn't condemn wife beaters and rapists is trash


Has ANYONE done that?

But the narrative that women are the only victims of abuse and are immune from the same behaviours is ridiculous.

The problem is that the dialogue can't occur because some entities think that discussing or critiquing the "message" is akin to condoning abuse. It's the same with rape. It's the same reason you can't go on tv and say "listen, we all know the idea that 1/4 women in college experiences sexual assault is ridiculous" even though it is laughable. Abuse (and rape) are obviously very real problems, but it's just bizarre that any discussion from the male side is viewed as trying to discredit their existence as a problem.


Yep. Example showing her bias.

coupled with VIOLENCE. Can you not see that on the outer edges of the circle?

nowhere on that poster does it say men can not be abused

you basically have. Making light of abused women and saying "acting like a man" could be misconstrued as abuse

My ex worked for them many years ago, and every one of the women she worked with had tremendous daddy and men issues.

That seems to be the case. And all the more reason for me to be a good dad so my daughter doesn't turn out a crazy substance abusing wreck who flits from one failed relationship to another and gets passed around more than a blunt at a Snoop concert.
