Why We Need To Stop Referring To Men As Controlling (Page 2)

[Nevada_rose]

well ok ya... some people use this an excuse but being actually controlled by a male is real and happens a lot, it has happened to me with basically every male I've ever had in my life. The manipulation is real and difficult

[MzAsh]

How many men have you had in your life?

[Nevada_rose]

a lot... probably around 14 closely in my life enough to manipulate and control me and 12 of them have

[MzAsh]

Are these boyfriends?

[Nevada_rose]

a few are but they are also my dad step dad uncles and close family friends, yes you have to give them control for them to control you but sometime the force you to give that control... you don't have an option more then you do... at least in my situation

[MzAsh]

At 16 you should only be dating other kids such as yourself, not men. But I’m sorry you have so many manipulative people in your family at such a young age.

[Nevada_rose]

or if they are close enough, sometimes you don't even realize it's going on until its already over or too late to repair

[Nevada_rose]

ya i do have or had a lot of bad men in my life, its call a broken family, welcome to life. But telling me or anyone in that matter that they have control when they don't isn't fair...

[Nevada_rose]

and just because im 16 does NOT mean I couldn't have had boyfriends who have manipulated me or controlled me...

[MzAsh]

Yeah but they aren’t “men.” They are children and children are often selfish. I’m not saying it’s right but it’s not surprising. And if the other men in your life are doing illegal things like assaulting you, you have certain legal rights. Otherwise, Adults are supposed to have control over minors.

[Nevada_rose]

certain men... in certain ways, like my father should in ways, but other men shouldn't have control over me just cause im 16 ... either way my point is it isn't always an option to not get contolled

[MzAsh]

I hear ya

[Anonymous]

This is why I was so tired of my mom complaining about my dad. She stayed married until he died-50 years. Claimed she was a victim, but also said he didn't control her... whatever...

[COMMODOREII]

Very true. You are right. Now can i have my coffee now? 😜😎

[Anonymous]

If they're controlling im going to call them CONTROLLING. wtf

[SoupDeJour]

Insecure about self gives the controller comfort? You are correct. "Only" if you let the control take over. You have "mad skills" in analogy.

[ActiveSh1tter]

Women are more controlling and abusive than men. Difference is society let's them get away with it.

[mspotaytuh]

ew...

[1truekhaleesi]

What an utterly disgusting and vile human being.

[ActiveSh1tter]

@1truekhaleesi 🙄

[1truekhaleesi]

Wow you can post an emoji. Good for you..

[MzAsh]

So I mean it’s easy to say “women are more abusive than men” but what statistical data or hard evidence do you support that with? Or is it your experience? Because at some point you have to accept responsibility in who you are allowing into your life.

[ryancreams]

Does it hurt being stupid? I've always wondered.

[ActiveSh1tter]

Women commit 70% of domestic violence:

Also studies show lesbians have a rate of domestic violence twice that of gay men.

[Sabretooth]

so long as i'm kept in the know and respects my decisions-she's pretty much free to do as she wants.

[tootoot]

Its called dominance, not controlling

[MzAsh]

There is a distinctive difference.

[Blondegypsy23]

Men will always be in control

[WarDaddy1969]

Yes you should my preciouses

[Grobmate]

Very well said.

[Cherokeehp]

Are you dumb?

[TonyBologna25]
