ciarnabrighid: This thread has struck a chord with me. I didn't want to post right away because I wanted to wait for a while and see what people's different views are on this...and there are quite a few different views.
I myself was beaten up by a guy, an ex of mine and it was an unprevoked attack. I was walking into town when he came up from behind me, put his arm around my throat from behind, tripped me to the ground, and as I hit the ground he kicked me on the head three times and I then went unconcious. He called my severley mentally and physically disabled brother a "spastic" and a "cripple" because my brother cannot walk, talk or hear!

Why am I telling you this I hear you ask.....
I am telling you this because I took that b%%%%%% to the dry cleaners not because of what he did to me but because of what he called my brother. No one and I mean no one will ever, in my life for as long as I am able to stand, will ever, get away with calling my brother a cripple and a spastic, NO ONE!
The police took him to court for what the weasel did to me but I was more worried about what he called my brother. I didn't care about him hitting me. I wanted him dealt with for calling my brother the names he called him.
In the end, the case was taken to court and I won....and I came out of that court case with my head held high. He pleaded not guilty and said that I was at fault....how come???? it was him that was guilty. he left me lying there and only for the staff at the chip shop god only knows what would've happened to me. the cctv caught all the evidence and the girl that saw the whole thing turned up in court and because of this he had to change his plea from not guilty to guilty! she said she never saw anything as vicious in all of her life.

Because of this.....I am very weary now and I am petrified of being out on my own in the town and scared if someone was behind me up close. My heart races and I panic.

Men should not women full stop. It is not acceptable. And any man that hits a woman is nothing but a coward, full stop. The guy that hit me also hit his own mother, a 75 year old woman, pushed her to the ground and knocked her flying out of his way. And this only happened to me in 2008. I'm still recovering, however, I am getting there because there is no way I'd let that
b%%%%%% put me of my feet.


I hope the scumbag got what he deserves, to attack a woman as he did you and then to insult your brother because he's disabled just goes to show what a poor specimen of a human he is, Well done for standing up for your brother i'm sure he knows how special you are.thumbs up wine

yes we certainly do, but I believe in the innocence of the young child at birth, and while some neuorologic factors may come into play in the development of a violent / destructive personality, I still believe in the inherent goodness therefore placing causality primarily on the environment. So if an environment created most of the problems. Can a different environment help fix them? (The reasoning behind much in social work and education).

But by adulthood much of the willingness to change must come from within a person, even in the best environments. Why is it so easy to fall and so hard to get back up?moping

JeanKimberley: good question - should make it a thread -

people are individuals and while there are predictable trends in behavior - the same can be asked of those leaving intense battlefields and long tours of duty as soldiers....

Don't we humans have the capacity to great good and great evil?

Ah, the age old question - is it nature or nuture? I think the studies they did on rats in overcrowded situations and under duress in the 60s and 70s still hold great understanding to human behavior -

I believe however, that it is late gnite Hope to party in the forums with ya'll later wave

I am sure you have read my post on page 8 I think it is........do you justify what my ex did to me?? Do you think he had the right to hit me ?? The reason why I ask is because I am getting mixed vibes from you. One minute I think your against but I then see that you would hit women and justify it? Personally I think that is wrong but that is my own personal opinion.

He set up this thread to deliberately behave the way he behaves..... to get a reaction and to shape the world the way he wants to shape it.

Thank your very much for your nice words. He didn't get much of a sentence. He get one year's suspended sentence and he had to do an anger's management course, I think for 12 weeks as for as I can remember. Also, his name is on the list as a criminal now for life with the police....something that I don't have!!

I'll do anything for my brother, absolutely anything, give him my last dying breath if needed.
I was trying to remember your face because I remembered it from before. You commented on the smoking thread congratulating me on giving up the smoking 8 years ago this April. Again, thank you!!!

Is there ever a good enough reason for a woman to belittle a man she is in relationship with to the point where he feels so frustrated? Is there ever a good enough reason for a woman to constantly criticize a man because he is being what he is and she expects him to be different? Is there ever a good enough reason for a woman to treat a man like trash and then wonder why he does not respond in a loving way to him????

In most circumstances (note not all) there is always 3 sides to the story. The woman's side, the man's side, and then there is the truth.......

I don't believe a man should ever hit a woman, that is just not right! A woman is a precious gem and should be honored, respected, and cherished. A man should protect her and keep her safe at all times, a man should also not be afraid to show her affection and tell her he loves her. This is the definition of a true man.

You might not think she's so precious if she was hitting you with a cast iron frying pan.

Gender has nothing to do with the right to protect yourself. However, the circumstances had better be appropriate.

Depends on the circumstance.
Say you and your partner are walking down the street and some crazy woman/drunk/gypsy/junkey attacks her, you're not going to politely ask her to stop when she is knocking lumps out of your partner now are you?

I do not agree with you Papermate. Good relationships should foster care,co-operation,love,trust,and being real friends etc. When these virtues breakdown couples should separate and divorce.Once couples hit each other the trust is gone for good it will not come back again. If people think that they still live with each other-- they are kidding themselves. It will only lead to future domestic violence. It is for for couples to spend more time finding another partner more suited to their personality.

We're not really talking about relationships, though. It's a very open ended question. Violence in a relationships is bad anyway.

There is never a good reason for a man to hit a woman,beause they are definetily built weaker in the frame in most cases.but on the other hand,a woman that taunts a man into hitting her ,or slaps a man,knowing that she is not going to get hit because she is a woman, is a coward

I can think of 2 reasons;
1. She is a serial killer and you are her intended victim.
2. She is an armed robber and you have 1 chance to end the robbery.
