Women are not the only victims/survivors of domestic abuse of course. I've known men who were in abusive relationships as well as women, and I've also known a couple of women who were the perpetrators of domestic violence. Regardless of the abuser's sex or gender and despite any hurtful words from the victim or potential victim said potential abuser has the obligation to remove him or herself from the situation and ultimately the relationship.
There are people who enrage me to the point that I just want to decimate them, but I choose to stay away from those people, because the crazy drama a friendship or romantic relationship with such persons would produce is of course not worth my sanity or freedom. If someone says things to me that hurt my feelings or anger me to the point that I feel the urge to strike that person then there's no point in remaining in a relationship or friendship with that person, as I don't care to go to jail just because someone's words left me feeling booty hurt. Can words upset us all emotionally? Of course words can hurt. Yes, there are such a things as emotional abuse and or verbal abuse. I happen to believe that we all owe it to ourselves to not remain in unhealthy relationships.
A funny thing I want to mention is that the first two abusive people who said to me, "what did he/she do to deserve being hit" or "they (the victim)made me do it", we're in fact women. Yanno what I told those two people separately, and on two different ocassions? I said, "if someone makes you feel so bad that you just want to hit him(her) then you shouldn't be with him(her) or around him(her) period, you're better off alone, stop being afraid of being lonely". There's nothing wrong with being alone, and I was alone for a very long time before I met my current beau; if it doesn't work out then I will be alone again. Sure, the single life may get lonely sometimes, maybe even most of the time, but it's not the end of the world, and being alone is better than wasting time and emotion with the wrong person.
I'm not gay but I hate women.
