How do you feel seeing this:


Does she seem so strong, independent and confident smacking her disrespectful ex husband?

"He deserved it for how he treated her!"

What if the roles were reversed? Would he be a strong, indepent, confident man for hitting her while confined / disabled in a wheelchair?

In fact, when I went to find images of men hitting a woman in the same manner, the only things that mostly appeared were "abuse" or sexual oriented BDSM type things.
The serious slaps were still women hitting men - (though my search words were 'man hits woman'.)

Its glorified for a woman to hit a man, but unequal in a sense that men can not slap the hell out of some rabid shrew, in the same manner.

I use "shrew" to indicate women who are being abusive / unruly in a sense of being a threat to him or his family. Or, who "deserves" it for treating their male counterpart so disrespectfully.

Issues of this double-standard:

1.) "Women are taught to fear men"

*Impressing that men can not hit a woman, reinforces the idea that women should fear men.
*Women would learn to defend themselves, not assuming all men will keep that pseudo-boundary.

2.) Encourages violence against men, takes away their voice:
*Even police officers have defended a shrew for assault, assuming it was the man at fault.
*Men are judged as always wrong for hitting a gal, even if it was necessary.

"A real man NEVER hits a woman."

3.) Men suffer psyche / emotional difficulty in dealing with abusive wives but having no leverage.

"Women are WEAKER so if she hits you it doesn't matter - be a MAN."

So its okay for a man to take abuse, but not a woman? In what dimension is that ethical and fair?

4.) Women are a dangerous threat too.
*A woman killed her SO by pushing him down the stairs /stabbings /shootings/head trauma etc...
*A woman can hurt or threaten a man's wife, child, pet or home.
*She is a FAKING SHREW.

All opinions welcome :)
see update too -

Every European I've spoke to (from uk to Spain, Greece, Finland, Estonia, Poland etc) has told me that turkey is a nasty country & it feels like they absolutely hate it.

Why's that? I know some Turks and they might smell a bit bad but they seem nice people.

The more I meet and talk to people, the more I read the news and watch TV, the more I realize that the US is becoming a country composed of a gender war instead of an equal peaceful nation.

here’s a simple equation: More feminism = more men putting their guard up and becoming even more sexist, because they don’t understand feminism’s intentions, nor they want women to hold an equal position. Maybe fear? Maybe just an ego thing? Maybe their upbringing or religious reasons?

I know some people find power attractive, i tend to think its more a female thing finding men attractive with power rather than men finding women attractive with power, so i am curious do you?
