On Chris Brown's and Rihanna's Abuse, other news

Article here. Excerpt:

'And another member of the “nurturing, compassionate, never-violent” sex defies the ideological feminist stereotype (while an unconstitutional Violence Against Women Act was passed in the U.S. to protect her!):

“Pop star Rihanna hit boyfriend Chris Brown, slapping him 'numerous times' before he allegedly beat her and left her with serious facial injuries, according to reports. ...Rihanna was the first one to lash out at Brown — after seeing a text message from another woman — and continued to fight him as he punched her....”

How many times have you seen women slap men in movies, sitcoms, and even commercials? In real life, when a woman slaps a man, does she believe she, like the fictionalized women who slap men, will experience no blow-back from the man, that he will just stand there and take it? What does a real-life woman do when she herself is slapped numerous times? Stand there and take it? No, she will likely lose her temper and retaliate. While I condemn both of them for their violence, I realize it takes considerable will power and self-restraint to keeping from losing one's temper when one is being slapped repeatedly, especially when, as Brown was doing, driving one's vehicle and putting lives in danger in a potential accident.'

Get the facts straight!

Fact 1) A woman acting in self defense is expressing her strength in spite of her fragile self esteem and is deserving of our admiration and sympathy (and of course publicly funded counseling).

Fact 2) A man acting in self defense is a criminal.

Fact 3) Only a misogynist questions either of the above facts.

Does that help clear it up?

(I feel better already)

Well the bigger person doing the most damage aftermath is all people see, and Oprah is doing a special GG that is going to be one sided.

Apparently a lot of girls spoke up for Brown but it doesn't matter,women have got men where they want them nowadays.Just look at the new laws made today in the uk and
listen to the media,it's all over boys.Any young man getting involved with girls should be certified.
Don't know what they think of the old days,some married couples used to knock holy hell out of each other and a lot of them are still together today.
Punch and Judy was a puppet show where the 2 were always quarrelling and fighting although even those days Punch came off worse.

Rihanna? Rihanna? Ah yes, of course. The latest in a long and tedious line of female popsters who have ridden to fame and no doubt extravagant fortune on the back of minimal talent disguised by overhyped publicity and sexual allure. And the lyrics of whose songs reflect dollops of contempt for men.

Like so many others before her, she has no qualms about dishing out insults and abuse to men; but can't take it when someone hits back.

Civilisation: man's greatest, and most unappreciated, gift to women

Are you people seriously suggesting this was reprical force, responding in kind?

Self defence is using the smallest NECESSARY FORCE in order to end the attack. It's not "oh, they hit me first, so now i can beat the shit out of them" This was not simply self defence.

I am not saying rhianna is blameless in all this, but this was not a self defence situation.

As for rhianna's lyrics having dollops of man hate, ironically chris brown has actually written some songs for rhianna.
