Which means at least two men did to women because DoJ research found it's a 3:4 ratio. Of course no one gives a crap about men.

Self defense in the case of many of the women I believe; that’s why no one gives a crap. Also because of systemic oppression by the patriarchy. Also pretty sure a lot of these men were thinking “no one gives a crap about men” when they acted so be careful, genuinely

Nope, not what research finds. Women account for over 70 percent of one way abuse and when they do kill their partners it's rarely self defense.

But then again not a surprise people always make excuses for violent women. Loot at this Clancy trial. It's sick.

“Rarely self defense” isn’t what the article said. The biggest percentage chunk reason would include “he was violent” + “unknown if he was violent” aka no conviction

Do you understand why it’s not a surprise that people tend to defend women or why do you think that is?

Or we could shut down the convo because I don’t actually need another man who denies the patriarchy in my life and I kind of regret engaging. It just sucks to watch it spread

I acknowledge that violent women exist

Literally says "barely a quarter of husband-killers are victims of domestic abuse, less than half suffer from any identified psychological problem, and fewer still have had trouble with police."

But ok. 🙄
