Edykul: The OP is so right.It takes a well principled man not to hit back at the woman when he finds himself in such situation.It also takes a well principled woman to know that she isn't suppose to hit a man. -MenGoingThereWay 1 Like |

Men are put at an obvious disadvantage in these so called advanced countries, if he didn't hit back he would still have been mocked, even in divorce the woman gets preference whether she caused it or not. Females literally eat their cake and have it in that part of d world |

BABE3: Don't know about Oscar and his late gf. All i am saying is:Just because you were slapped, is not enough reason to disable or murder the person. You will definitely go to jail on planet Earth. Don't know d one you mirgrated from. 2 Likes |

Obinoscopy: Aisha2, I love your objectivity, logical and intellectual display. How I wish every female folk gets to read this thread. I agree very much with your post. There is something yorubas call aseju Imagine A & B fighting: A gives B a dirty slap and B shoots A, I doubt B will walk free even if A slapped first. This is the point some misunderstood posters are trying to make. If a woman hits a man, is he free to hit back? yes if he wants to. Does he have the licence to injure? let the courts decide. On a lighter note, if a man hits a woman, should she hit him back? P.S.: I did not watch the clip in question and cannot comment on it. 2 Likes |
Re: Violence: Again The Double Standards by BABE3: 4:11pm On Sep 13, 2014 |
Sparklesebony: If the intent wasn't to disable or murder, if it's self defense/ out of anger, you'll walk free with a good lawyer in a sane country. I can post tens and hundreds of court cases supporting my point. Should I? Like I said, oscar's gf didn't even slap him and he's likely to get the minimum sentence for what he's charged for (pay a fine, or probation). If you punch me, and I throw two punches back and you die, I won't go to prison with a good lawyer. My intent wasn't to kill you, but you died, so how's that my fault? I know in NIgeria, the person with the least amount of injuries is always at fault. |

Sagamite: Here's what Obama said: "Hitting a woman is not something a 'real man' does, and that's true whether or not an act of violence happens in the public eye, or, far too often, behind closed doors. Stopping domestic violence is something that's bigger than football, and all of us have a responsibility to put a stop to it." Of all the things I could criticize Obama on (and believe me I can and do almost constantly), the above quote even wouldn't graze top 100. Since when did aggravated assault - or crime of any kind - stop 'artists' from making music? Or are you actually comparing the multi-billion dollar NFL to a record label? Side Note: I'm no career counselor but as a casual observer, I would suggest Ray Rice use this unsavory spotlight to make a snazzy career move into Rap. Chris brown's record label, like most, cherishes knockout artists provided they keep the hits coming. In no time at all and if he plays his cards right, he may just be featured in WIZ FM, where they play "nothin' but the hits, nothin' but the hits, nothin' but the muthafukin' hits" (and everywhere else hits are played). |

I love Whoppis take on this issue, wish I can find the video and post here. She said my mind totally. Women should quit shouting I am the victim when they raise their hands the moment you decide to raise your hand on anyone you loose the right to determine how they react |
Re: Violence: Again The Double Standards by Nobody: 6:46pm On Sep 13, 2014 |
aisha2: I agree. Obama typically delivers statements on social/public happenings, and withholds them on topics where his 'presidential' voice is greatly needed so this is nothing new. |

aisha2: Same here. That aside, I agree with the sentiments of your original post, but I don't think the Ray Rice incident is applicable. Solange was the aggressor in the elevator with Jay Z, but Janay was clearly not. Being as she later married him, I haven't much to say beyond that. |

Goldberg defends the context in which ESPN's Stephen A. Smith made his original remarks, referencing how the wife of Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice mentioned that she hit him first Even though Stephen A. Smith apologized for saying that women sometimes provoke getting hit, Whoopi Goldberg is still coming to his defense. See video: ESPN Host Stephen A. Smith Apologizes for Domestic Violence Remarks on ‘First Take’ (Video) On Monday's “The View,” Goldberg was vehemently defending the context in which Smith made his original remarks, referencing how the wife of Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice mentioned that she hit him first. According to Goldberg, women should be taught from a young age the lesson “Don't be surprised if you hit a man, he hits you back.” See video: Whoopi Goldberg on ‘View’ Panel Shakeup: ‘There Could Be Six Turtles at the Table’ (Video) She went on to say, “If you make the choice as a woman who is 4'3” and you decide to hit a guy who is 6 foot tall and you're the last thing you make the choice as a woman who is 4'3” and you decide to hit a guy who is 6 foot tall and you're the last thing you want he wants to deal with that day and he hits you back, you cannot be surprised.” Of course, the rest of the panel was saying that a man should never hit a woman, and in principle Whoopi agreed, but she was advocating that women should learn to keep it under control themselves. See video: Joe Morton Tells ‘The View’ That Rowan Pope on ‘Scandal’ Is Based on His Father (Video) “I know I'm going to catch a lot of hell, and I don't care. But you have to teach women, do not live with this idea that men have this chivalry thing still with them, don't assume that that is still in place.” Whoppi words are gbamest we need to start teaching women that they won't get away with that shi- t gender equality means you take as good as you get 1 Like |
Re: Violence: Again The Double Standards by CAMNEWTON4PRES: 7:18pm On Sep 13, 2014 |
That's exactly the point, chivalry is not genetic , neither is self control, so what on earth make them assume all men will tolerate their stinking behaviors ? When men deal with other men stronger than them, they don't play the victim card or they don't strike them to then tell them that they should not retaliate because they appear stronger . Like they say all is fair in war, pick up your fights wisely |

BABE3:ops. That would be regarded as manslaughter and the person would face prison time. same way Oscar was found guilty of manslaughter and he will most likely get some jail time. As the Judge said, he used excessive force. That's the thing about self Defence once you use more force than you needed to to protect your life then it's manslaughter. You life isn't in danger just because someone slapped you, as long as she isn't holding a knife or continuing to attack you then the right thing is to walk away and call the cops. Same way if a robber comes to your house and you had the chance to escape or shoot in in the legs but instead you choose to stay and shoot him to death you will serve jail time because it wasn't necessary for you to kill him In order to survive. |
Re: Violence: Again The Double Standards by BABE3: 12:24am On Sep 14, 2014 |
adebisicutie: They may or they may not. It's depends on how good your defense case/ team is. Hundreds have worked free for accidently killing people. You need links/evidence? |
Re: Violence: Again The Double Standards by adebisicutie: 12:29am On Sep 14, 2014 |
BABE3: Obviously some people have walked way same way some people have walked away even after committing murder. The court can only rule based on the amount of evidence available that dosent mean murder is allowed. By law in self Defence you should only use the amount of force needed to get away and save your life but if the persecutor doesn't have enough evidence the person would walk the same way as people walk in drug cases and others. For every one case where the accused walks away there are 10 who are serving prison time. So it's a question of do you want to take that risk just to get back at someone when you can easily call the cops and have that person punished in the right way by the law? 2 Likes |

adebisicutie: Good, You've agreed with my point that hundreds have worked free when it comes to such cases. |

men should not slap a woman; if a woman slaps a man, she's no longer a woman, at that point she can be slapped and beaten . . . . to death want to be treated like a lady? . . . behave like a lady. dont go slapping men. you cant go to a jungle and kick a hungry lion and expect a smile, you will be food. any woman who is opposed to the notion that nobody should slap anyone regardless of gender, is a bloody b1tch who wants to hit others and get away with it. she should go back to the lesbianism or remain a frustrated divorcee for life. Mr Rice is gonna face charges (even though his wife is not pressing charges, the govt will press the charges anyways, crying more than the bereaved) and perhaps end up destroying the marriage and ipso facto, girl they are pretending to protect. meanwhile solange is free . . . . talk of a nation that promotes equal justice puah!!!! i spit on despicable feminists |

EnlightenedSoul: But he was mum when Solange attacked? He could not tell the world a 'real lady' does not behave like that? EnlightenedSoul: I love it when you "feminists" try to always argue that when women do something that you will condemn a man for, it is not that bad and should not be taken equally seriously. So what is the difference between NFL and music? The music industry is not multi-million dollar? When Chris Brown hit someone that was hitting him, he did not go to court? But when Solange does it "it is not like an NFL player hitting someone"? And you will see the person "real men" jumping up and down like poodle dogs to back such illogical arguments. |
