At least partly true
Regardless of the grammatical complaints mentioned below, he does have a point.
My parents devorced when I was 9, and by the time I was 10, my mother was regularly hitting me and insulting me all the time. Even at 22, it still makes me angry.
Eventually I managed to get into a group home at the age of 15, but apparently not because of the abuse she gave (they never disclosed what she told them). Nobody seemed to believe she was as bad as I said, because she was very good at lying and playing innocent.
To be fair, my father would have been only slightly better as a parent, but it wouldn't have been as hard to get out if I needed to.
Despite that, I still don't think women are worse than men, but I do know they can get away with certain things a lot easier.
I strongly believe in equal rights, no more no less.
Choices
Domestic violence is a fact, hopefully it will not remain so, but I truly doubt it.
I grew up with being punched, not doing some things they way they were supposed to, or he was angry and took it out on me, too scared to tell anyone because he was my father and I loved him. I still do. But there came a time when I had had enough, and to stop it, I threw a knife at him, just barely missing him and told him that if he hit me again, I would call in the police. He stopped thank goodness.
I vowed that I would not put my children through the kind of hell I suffered emotionally and physically. I have kept my promise.
Yes, home is supposed to be a safe haven and I have made mine one, for me and my sons.
We all have choices, that was mine and I kept it. I don't regret this decision at all, not for 1 single minute.
I truly think the time has come to make choices and changes not only in the way we feel, but how we act towards each other.
A bit more to say
In 'Choices' I wrote about the type of domestic violence I was subjected to and survived.
Just because my father did this to me, does not mean that all men commit domestic violence. They don't.
Women do too. More often than not it is classed as discipline when it comes to children. That's the worst type of violence there is, hitting your child and not knowing when to stop because you're angry and upset.
Women are or were the teachers and nurturers of their children. We were the ones who raised them, taught them to walk, talk, what is wrong, what is right.
That role is slowly being reversed with father's becoming the custodial parent due to neglect and violence from the mother.
When did the role of teacher, nurturer and supporter of children become too much for some women?
Feminism brought to light the plight of women's right to be their own person, the right to be respected and have a say in all things that concerned them. You had a choice of raising marrying and raising a family or pursuing a career.
To me equal rights meant that I could apply for the same job opportunities that a man could and be judged on my abilities, not my gender.
There may be equality in the workplace, but I have yet to see total equality between men and women as people in their own rights, celebrating differences and similarities together and being respected for them.
So much for equality
Why is it that as soon as someone says something that doesn't automatically tow the feminist line, something that's at all negative about women, that says they're not as perfect as some would have you believe and that SOME of them can be as violent and as evil as men, that it's suddenly a "misogynist" comment?
This really betrays how skewed someone's views are if they're so far to one extreme that anything which might possibly put men and women on the same footing, that it's somehow deemed as offensive to, or biased against one side.
To achieve true equality we must all take the good with the bad, even if that means a rise in female violent offenders for a time.
And as far as the DV statistics are concerned, those "North America" stats are just wrong, whether they're underreported, miscalculated, or just plain made up. The FBI stats since the mid-90s on have shown that domestic violence reports have been about 50-50 men vs. women perpetrators, ususally against the spouse, but occasionally against a child.
And on a somewhat related note, the sheer number of, as well as the percentage of female-to-male perpetrators of violent crime overall have been on a slow but steady rise, though all violent crime per capita has dropped at least 10 percent every year for the last twenty years.
Anyway, I would've given you a 100% vote except I thought your argument was a bit too emotional than necessary (and may have lost some readers), and rather radical in some places, but made some good points too.
I agree with you stuponfucion
Women can be and in alot of cases are as evil as men. It's just how everyone looks at cheating. Almost everyone, especially women, believe that cheating is a man's game, but the fact is that women cheat just as much as men.
