While not denying some women physically abuse men, it's overwhelmingly more prevalent the other way around, including to the point of murder: more than one Australian woman a week is killed by a partner or former partner, and on the increase, but this very rarely happens in reverse.
So crazy bullshit & abuse is just women being women? I suppose you also believe men assaulting and killing women is just men being men?
Personally I'm sick and tired of the term "abuse" being used inappropriately: anyone who's actually been abused knows that it's more than crazy bullshit, nagging and whingeing, which is done by BOTH genders, by the way, not just women.
Which men are raised to accept anything women dish out? Quite the opposite I would've thought, given some of the excuses men come up with for physically abusing or killing a partner or former partner, as in "I thought she was having an affair"; "My dinner wasn't ready when I wanted it"; "I was drunk /drugged & didn't know what I was doing"; "She said she was going to leave me" ....... need I go on?
I still have hope that the next generation of women is learning to recognise the early warning signs of a violent man, regardless of how attractive, and not get involved with such a person in the first place.
Are you serious? No, crazy bullshit =/= nagging. I'm talking about beatings, throwing items at you, breaking your shit, clawing your face, kicking you to the ground, calling you worthless +, and more; and sadly these are examples from my own experience with an abusive WOMAN, Ms. Ellenna. Yet, my experience does not make me favor men more, but see that we're not completely helpless as the world makes us out to be, and that were capable of violence as well. Basically, I see both warning signs in men and women.
However, like I said in my previous reply, I refuse to be so one-sided. Though I know I can't change the world on a grand scale, I'm going to teach both my daughters AND my sons how to recognize abuse, because you're right, BOTH genders can be abusive (while was my point to begin with), and both roughly show the same warning signs. Both can be just as vicious, just as hurtful, and just as murderous.
Women "just as murderous"? Oh, so more than 2 men a week in Australia are murdered by female partners or former partners? That must be why there's been such a need for men's refuges that men have set them up with hard won government support?
I reckon we women are potentially as violent (and also as peaceloving) as men, it's just we haven't had thousands of years of practice with violence. I too have experienced violence at the hands of women, but I was always aware there wasn't much strength/size differential so it wasn't as frightening or damaging as violence from a male someone larger, stronger and more used to dealing out violence.
Why do some girls take advantage of boys?

Did I ever say women couldn't be violent? Of course we can BUT NOT ON THE SAME SCALE and rarely to the point of murder
