I wish the women that run around giving the “be a man, don’t hit a woman” advice would spend that time talking to girls about how to be a lady. At the beginning of the cycle that creates an abusive controlling man, is a woman. Teach women to not belittle and go for the throat every chance they get. Teach them not to put their hands a on a man if they don’t want hands put on them. Teach them to get out of their emotions, step back, think about how they feel and articulate it to their man without yelling and screaming in his face or attacking his manhood. Teach them how to have enough self esteem and a better judge of character to not choose these idiots who abuse women. Teach them to stop castrating their sons mentally and emotionally, so when they grow up, they don’t feel like King Kong when they hit a woman. Its on you, ladies.
