depressedgirly
I think it's really bad that needs pointing out, people stop abusing people!!
RMaybeth
I have had all these things happen from women i was in relationship with.i am supposed to take it tho there's nobody i can whine to, no cops
BookOfLeviticus
You can't be abused by your S/O if you don't have an S/O
TheTrueQuarian
If a chick starts hittin me she better be ready for a roundhouse kick to the ovaries.
TheNiteWolf01
My ex (F) slapped me (M) twice in public. Nobody did anything. Glad I'm out of that relationship.
Grenther
Try that the other way around and see how people respond...
Probably differently than what happened when she hit me. Thanks for the reply, though, I think you're the first person who I've told (1/2)
who actually acknowledged that something wrong happened. I mentioned it to a few people, but no one actually said anything. (2/2)
Crispyock
My ex once put me in a choke hold until i heard my trachea crunch. She let go. I slammed her into the wall.
She was 5'1" im 6'1" i felt like i was dying. I hated her for quite a while after that.
She got pissed because 'I didnt really hurt you. '
drasun
What the actual frick. That's fucked
providedlava
"Im a girl im to weak to hurt you!"
in that case i understand why she/s your ex and ought to damn well stay that way.My wife pulls almost the same shit.
in2i2on
Tbh, there is a thing called a love tap. Smacking my butt when I'm cooking is playful. Op is right about abuse, but there's some wiggle room
SendMeAllTheMemes
100% agree
SquatOnmylalala
Yes! Its crazy that it isnt obvious..
makeollimadame
i hate *cute slaps* that girls do. regardless of the pain it prob doesnt cause, you're delegating yourself into a "weaker sex" position.
ie. dont expect to be treated as an equal
JarethTheGoblinKingsBulge
Well I'll be safe. You have to actually get a girl to be around you for that.

It's not the physical abuse coming from women. It's the mental.
It's both, but mental abuse is way more common.
Sjuulebuul
THIS is feminism to me. This is what I belive in, this is what the world needs to see and be.
fredlinkage
True that. It hurts just the same. Unless it's your kink! But all jokes aside it's abuse no matter what the gender.
iamireland
A partner once hit me on the arm (with no real force) and pushed me away when she was mad at me. I said, "If this is going to get physical-
-you're probably not going to like how it turns out." and she never did it again. So I guess I'm lucky.
deformedclowntorturebasement
Nah, you're just kind of a dick for threatening her with violence.
There is absolutely nothing controversial about defending myself from physical assault. It was the best way to diffuse the situation.
raidleadergutts
As opposed to her being an angel for actually committing an act of violence?
It was really quite mild, but I still won't tolerate violence as an emotional reaction. She was a pretty chill girl in her way.
popejubal
Nah, he's kind of cool for letting her know that it's not okay to hit him.
Could have gone about it in a better way is all I'm saying, instead of implying that if she hits him again he'll beat the shit out of her.
Like what? "Please stop being irrational" isn't a plea one can expect to work. I just warned her that I intended to defend myself.
aneeda
Women can be assholes without labelling them "feminist".
ARegularOldPlumbus
I don't think they're the ones being labelled feminist- I think it's the idea put forward by OP, which is 100% an idea held by feminists.
Some.
Plumbus is correct

ohaiwirefly
Totally agree. My mother has been slapping my dad around for years. She tells stories about it later like it's cute and funny. It's not.
MyHouseOnMars
My dad dated an abusive woman for years. I hated seeing him put up with it all. I tried to convince him that it wasn't healthy or right.
Velvetdragon
i hope you have told her this
Hell yeah, not that it matters. My dad and brothers will defend her, she will act stricken and abused, I seem to be the only one bothered.
well at least you step up an say some thing
Well, you know, I love them. Don't feel like there's any other choice.
Mal would be proud of you.
srslydude
My mother does that, then when he tries to step away from the situation, she acts like he's abandoning the family or avoiding responsibility
Not a psychologist but I think she has borderline personality disorder. You might look into it for ideas on how to cope. Very toxic people.
SyrupAndSpaghetti
I have borderline.. Not all of us are toxic.
her mother is very similar. My siblings and I think she just never grew up.
anygirlx
I made my boyfriend my husband and now it's legit! I'm not an abuser if he married me. ( That was sarcasm btw. )
I shouldn't joke. He was in an abusive relationship 15 years ago and he is still leary. It took a while to accept that he truly is fearful.
Because that's so outside my nature. She did damage for sure.
pastryzerotire
Never had a girlfriend hit me. Just female family members telling me to "man up and stop complaining" and "Im a girl, it doesn't hurt you"
f4ble
Psychopaths and boobs are a dangerous combination. Equal pay for women, but we still have to "Man up". Fight for equality is one sided.
Corona688
It's the same sexism that hurts both.
Nicste
Treating you like that is just as bad. Telling you to man up when you're upset with something or showing negative emotions is neglectful.

Girl bit me in the first grade, i punched her in the throat. Teacher thought i was in trouble but the principal said wtf bitch bit him

Reilynn
This is feminism. Not that misandry that some people will try to use as an excuse for being a jerk. You go, girl!
I think it'd fall more under egalitarianism
Unfortunately, scumbag fake-MRA rape apologists have sullied most other possible terms. "Feminism" is what's left. They're stuck with it.
theyar
No, it isn't feminism.
Yeah, sadly the majority of feminists attack & threaten the minority of feminists who acknowledge this.
I don't think it is really the majority; I think they are just very loud.
I don't think they're even speaking in places that matter. They're loud on TV and twitter
Real question: How are you defining "places that matter"? What criteria do you use?
Politics and actual work, vs random bitching at strangers. A lot of MRA's disqualify themselves this way too.
WowSoSparkly
Yes, when we speak about male issues, THAT is feminism. Ok buddy.
I love how feminists constantly shit on men & when people talk about men's isssues, some of which they create, they try to hijack them.
You tried.
And I succeeded. Thanks for noticing though, it means a lot.
The straw you tried to grasp wasnt even there, you fucking dumbass. Go to your dudebros for validation, theres none here.
wouldyouthough
Does this include constant criticism? Asking for a friend
Possible, been in one like that w/ lots of guilt tripping n manipulating. Nothing I ever did was good, really good at setting up a catch 22
Sounds familiar... I don't seem to have the required skills to deflect it or argue my side without it becoming about me being bad
bthighlander
Can be emotional abuse. Your partner should be a blessing not a curse. They should help you be the best you can be and vice versa.
Talk to her. She may not even realize shes doing it. If shes dealing with anger or resentment unrelated to you- its not yours to deal with.
Pretty sure there's underlying family issues. I've said to her before and she's recognised it but its not changed. Might try see a counselor
textilelover
I told my sister we couldn't hang out w/ her and her husband as long as she was so mean to him. It was too awful. We'd call her on it.
"Whatever this is, it isnt about me. When youre ready to talk, well talk. *walk away*" has worked for me in the past. Good luck!
I'll give it a shot thx :)
GuestChrist
A truly feminist thing to say. I mean that in the best way possible.
It's really not. You can bullshit all you want, but ad long as it's called "feminism" it isn't and will never be about equal rights.
Scumbag MRA rape apologists have tarnished most other terms,using them up one by one then reinventing themselves. "Feminist" is what's left.
That's not true and doesn't make sense.
Sadly, it is, and does. Watch for the ten million freaks that crawl out of the woodwork whenever the subject comes up.
CRXtasy125
I knew this girl who would fight with her BF and yell "come on, hit me you pussy." Pushing and slapping him. Bf was a very patient dude.
lilskank
This was me. The ex would poke, prod, punch, scream etc if she was pissed. Even threatened me at knife-point a couple times. >

peruuuuuuuusin
Curiosity here: could she have maybe been into a certain kink, and tried to bring something out in him? Or was she a thundercunt?
MissAizea
She probably was abused, or her mother, and was trying to recreate that dynamic, because that's what you think love is.
It's incredible how much we unconsciously propagate a method of interaction until we're shown a better way...
She seemed to want to belittle him in front of his friends. She has problems to this day. That guy left her.
Ronelyn
Feminist. Totally agree. Brother had the crap (emotional and physical) kicked out of him by a woman. Begged him to split w/her.
TheOlsenTwins
Vegan. Also totally agree here.
NotOnMyChronometer
I'd go so far as to say that I think this is true *because* I'm a feminist. That's not what I was taught growing up conservative.
OSCgal
Conservative over here, but also pacifist. None of us were to hit people or treat them cruelly. Ever.
I was taught that with words. I wasn't taught that with actions, not by my parents, school, or church. That was my experience.
I'm sorry you grew up surrounded by hypocrites. It's never right.
Absolutely. Same here.
mechanicalchaos
Thank you. I was raised conservative as well and it's a dysfunctional mindset on both ends. Women have to obey, but also aren't culprit
littlemorte
And if you think that it's still ok you don't love him, you don't even know what you want. He doesn't need a monster like you.
lol monster... some of them are, not just men, women too sometimes.
? This comment says the woman, in this scenario is the monster....
IHaveACatNamedGustav
Or she, or if you are a he and the other one still is a he but could also be a she, this still aplies.
It's in response on to what the post says. Of course no one should treat their love one in that way
Barbaraquechickain
As a female feminist, I agree. This isn't a novel concept and the people who disagree with this most often are non-feminist men. Just a note
HOCNOMINEESTFICTUS
Accurate. I'd disagree, but that only proves your point, doesn't it?
causality
inb4 you get downvoted to hell for saying the patriarchy doesn't exclusively benefit men.
People who disagree with this most are feminists who refuse to believe men can be abused in any way. You're just delusional.
cleverbeans
I can't imagine how you came to this conclusion. Feminists have been fighting the abuse against men since the 1900s.
Yeah, I'm sure all the feminists who attacked & threatened Erin Pizzey herself for saying that they should help men as well thought so.
That will happen when you spread misinformation to promote a personal agenda that actively harms people. It's not unique to feminism.
Sure that's what drove Erin Pizzey away & not feminists actually attacking her for supporting equality. Stop trying, you're just ridiculous.
valkrez
My mother caught me belittling my HS bf and told me the fuck off for it. Explained that I can't speak to him in a way I wouldn't want to-
muwah
My mom heard me speak to my HS boyfriend unkindly once. She told me to hang up my call told me to quit being a jerk. Message was received.
Be spoken to and that in general, it's. Shitty way to talk to someone you care about. That lecture really stuck and as an adult I can't-

ElectroDragonfly
I hit my boyfriend at my 17th birthday party. Dad sat me down and told me the fuck off too. I made myself stay single for a long time to 1/2
Think about how to treat people. It's been 3 years, hope I'm ready to be a real girlfriend at some point. I think I can try again.
Jesus christ is it really that difficult to not hit people?!
It was a mentality. It was thinking, "I'm better than everyone else and that makes anything I do to them okay." You have to relearn.
How do you reach a point where you think you're better than anyone? I usually struggle to think I'm just as worthy as the rest.
Do you remember why you thought that was an ok reaction? In retrospect I realized that I was mimicking things which I had observed as a kid
Yeah, totally! I thought it was okay because kids TV had a lot of Girl Power Look at this Girl Who Steps On Boys and this was a Good Thing.
Lol, right that makes sense
EndUserLicenseAgreement
As a dude who was stuck in an abusive relationship for way too long, it sounds like you may be ready.
Thanks, man. I sounded more confident than I really am about it, so I appreciate the encouragement. Hope you're doing okay.
Just ask yourself, "if my grandma saw me now, would she be horrified?" and there's your answer. And ya I'm alright.

Yeah, but the government defines bad things as something only men does. Example: duluth model.

Also rape laws, which state that only the victim can be penetrated, essentially making women immune to the charge of rape.

write SO many shocking stories about the shit we did and went through. A day with only an hour of screaming was a great day for us.

Curiosity here: could she have maybe been into a certain kink, and tried to bring something out in him? Or was she a thundercunt?
MissAizea
She probably was abused, or her mother, and was trying to recreate that dynamic, because that's what you think love is.
peruuuuuuuusin
It's incredible how much we unconsciously propagate a method of interaction until we're shown a better way...
CRXtasy125
She seemed to want to belittle him in front of his friends. She has problems to this day. That guy left her.
Ronelyn
Feminist. Totally agree. Brother had the crap (emotional and physical) kicked out of him by a woman. Begged him to split w/her.
TheOlsenTwins
Vegan. Also totally agree here.
NotOnMyChronometer
I'd go so far as to say that I think this is true *because* I'm a feminist. That's not what I was taught growing up conservative.
OSCgal
Conservative over here, but also pacifist. None of us were to hit people or treat them cruelly. Ever.
NotOnMyChronometer
I was taught that with words. I wasn't taught that with actions, not by my parents, school, or church. That was my experience.
OSCgal
I'm sorry you grew up surrounded by hypocrites. It's never right.
Ronelyn
Absolutely. Same here.
mechanicalchaos
Thank you. I was raised conservative as well and it's a dysfunctional mindset on both ends. Women have to obey, but also aren't culprit

And if you think that it's still ok you don't love him, you don't even know what you want. He doesn't need a monster like you.
RMaybeth
lol monster... some of them are, not just men, women too sometimes.
littlemorte
? This comment says the woman, in this scenario is the monster....
IHaveACatNamedGustav
Or she, or if you are a he and the other one still is a he but could also be a she, this still aplies.
littlemorte
It's in response on to what the post says. Of course no one should treat their love one in that way
Barbaraquechickain
As a female feminist, I agree. This isn't a novel concept and the people who disagree with this most often are non-feminist men. Just a note
HOCNOMINEESTFICTUS
Accurate. I'd disagree, but that only proves your point, doesn't it?
causality
inb4 you get downvoted to hell for saying the patriarchy doesn't exclusively benefit men.
raidleadergutts
People who disagree with this most are feminists who refuse to believe men can be abused in any way. You're just delusional.
cleverbeans
I can't imagine how you came to this conclusion. Feminists have been fighting the abuse against men since the 1900s.
raidleadergutts
Yeah, I'm sure all the feminists who attacked & threatened Erin Pizzey herself for saying that they should help men as well thought so.
cleverbeans
That will happen when you spread misinformation to promote a personal agenda that actively harms people. It's not unique to feminism.
raidleadergutts
Sure that's what drove Erin Pizzey away & not feminists actually attacking her for supporting equality. Stop trying, you're just ridiculous.

My mother caught me belittling my HS bf and told me the fuck off for it. Explained that I can't speak to him in a way I wouldn't want to-
muwah
My mom heard me speak to my HS boyfriend unkindly once. She told me to hang up my call told me to quit being a jerk. Message was received.

Be spoken to and that in general, it's. Shitty way to talk to someone you care about. That lecture really stuck and as an adult I can't-

I hit my boyfriend at my 17th birthday party. Dad sat me down and told me the fuck off too. I made myself stay single for a long time to 1/2
ElectroDragonfly
Think about how to treat people. It's been 3 years, hope I'm ready to be a real girlfriend at some point. I think I can try again.
TheOlsenTwins
Jesus christ is it really that difficult to not hit people?!
ElectroDragonfly
It was a mentality. It was thinking, "I'm better than everyone else and that makes anything I do to them okay." You have to relearn.
f4ble
How do you reach a point where you think you're better than anyone? I usually struggle to think I'm just as worthy as the rest.
valkrez
Do you remember why you thought that was an ok reaction? In retrospect I realized that I was mimicking things which I had observed as a kid
ElectroDragonfly
Yeah, totally! I thought it was okay because kids TV had a lot of Girl Power Look at this Girl Who Steps On Boys and this was a Good Thing.
valkrez
Lol, right that makes sense
EndUserLicenseAgreement
As a dude who was stuck in an abusive relationship for way too long, it sounds like you may be ready.

Thanks, man. I sounded more confident than I really am about it, so I appreciate the encouragement. Hope you're doing okay.

Just ask yourself, "if my grandma saw me now, would she be horrified?" and there's your answer. And ya I'm alright.

No. If you flat out say that you don't consent, that is not CNC. I'm really into anal, but I'm not gonna stick it in just anyone. 1/2

Shitty people come from both genders
TotallySaneScientist
They usually come out of vaginas.
chloramphenicolderivative
Yeah, but the government defines bad things as something only men does. Example: duluth model.
PMMeAnimeThighs
Also rape laws, which state that only the victim can be penetrated, essentially making women immune to the charge of rape.
