Have any of you watched Generation Kill?
It’s a miniseries on HBO about the American invasion of Iraq. In one scene, the Marines are doing something, I forget what, exactly, and the Iraqi men are just standing around, doing nothing. The women, on the other hand, are going absolutely apeshit. They’re screaming, yelling, waving their arms, cussing the marines out, nearly getting violent in some cases. Sgt. Espera, who has a knack for social commentary, then describes how he used to be a repo man. How men would just allow you to take their cars and shit, while he women would scream and fight and slap and bitch. Why is that?
‘Women think they’re protected.’
The men don’t fight because they know they’ll have to answer for their actions. If they throw a punch they’re gonna get busted up. Women think they can get away with treating men like shit because they’re women. That’s bullshit. Most men will not get confrontational with other men, while women will have no qualms about it, because men know that are accountable for what will happen to them.
Women want to have power like men, but they also want to be safe like women. That’s bullshit. You hit me you get hit back. I’m not your fucking whipping boy, just like you’re not my punching bag.
Just remember that when you do hit me, I can hit back a fuck of a lot harder. And I will. So think about that before you do something stupid. No woman hits a man expecting to be hit back, and that’s ridiculous. Respect me and I respect you.
Don’t tell me what women think.
you can ask me what I think and I will tell you
You said yourself it’s not right for a man to hit a woman, and that if a woman hits me, I should not hit her back. If you hold that belief, then, were you to slap a man, you wouldn’t expect him to slap you back. In this sense, you feel you are protected.
If a man hits a woman first, do you think she has the right to hit him back, or must she simply push him away also? Honestly, please. If a man hit you would you hit him back? Honestly. If you thought he wouldn’t hit you back?
It’s called accountability. Your actions have consequences. Are men stronger than women? Of course, and a woman who hits a man knows this. You don’t want to get hit, you don’t hit. it’s simple.
I’ve only been slapped by a woman twice in my life. Both times were because these girls thought it was cute or funny or whatever, and once because she was trying to goad me into wrestling with her. I didn’t strike them back, but I did let them know it was NOT okay. I didn’t hit them, but that was my concession, and it was a gift. A man would never have slapped me like that and thought it was going to go over well. A man would know he would get hit back just as hard. Women think they’re protected from that.[/quote]
Who are all these women that are hitting you? I don’t know these folks.
and do you really think the majority of domestic violence is woman against man, or do you think it just might be men beating on women?
I know, I know, we are supposed to be equal, great, give me all the equal opportunity and I will be more in your camp about things.
