When you think about the issue of domestic abuse, most people, if not even nearly everyone, thinks of a woman being battered by a man. Hardly anyone thinks that it could possibly be the other way around. However, the reality is, there are just as many men being abused by women as there are women being abused by men. The statistics are skewed on this point because most men do not come forward with this.
For whatever reason, women have gotten some sort of a “free pass,” such that they can do or say whatever they want to a man and feel as though they are totally innocent. Plus, if they DO feel the need to act in a mean way, it obviously means that the man initiated, HE started it.
Women are always the innocent flowers. Their feelings are much more important than those of whatever a man calls “his feelings.” What nonsense, really. Men aren’t REAL human beings — they don’t experience pain and rejection the same way that women do; and, if they DO complain about it, well then that obviously means they are not “man” enough, or that they are just “too sensitive.”
How could I have been so blind? How could I have been so stupid?
