The threat of violence is far more powerful than actual violence. But in a society that enforces the mantra "violence is NEVER acceptable" that threat has no power. It's as though one side has been disarmed.
But compounding this, is that the threat of unimaginable violence is now in her hands. If he should lose his temper for a second and lash out, no matter the extent of provocation, she can hurt him more than he could ever hurt her, via the strong arm of the state. A slap on the cheek stings for a few seconds, but a slap from the state can destroy your whole life.
While he's been disarmed, she has nuclear weapons. How can that ever work?
You argument is logical. I have never hit a female, but I have represented blokes who have. Invariably, it was never out of "Oh I'm pissed, where's me dinner, cop this bitch." There was
always some level of provocation which preceded it.
REALLY... provocation...wow presumably that also means sticking up for oneself..
if a man is taken to court where he needs a solicitor...then you can bettcha he has done it more than once.....very few women take men to court for the one instance....and from what we read the female.... is usually for from being provocative its the last thing she would do to get a beating..
I would like to see how many bruises or black eyes these provoked guys ever had to be honest... because that sounds so far fetched to be even amusing...
some women are told not to even dare mention they are leaving them.. because of said reaction....
and you claim it is/was quite common
how many cases did you win for them?????
