Re: Feminism
Oh. I feel like women have just forgotten how to take a punch. We've been subjugated for so long that we forgot we are capable of warfare in our own right. That's not to say that all women can take a punch or should take a punch. Some women just by the nature of things have to be prepared to take a punch.harmless wrote:Because generally, the only people using the term 'good old fashioned violence' are men.mookie wrote:Why is violence against women different from good old fashioned violence?

Nope? Still nothing, huh? Just 'how it is'? That's interesting. What do I know, I'm not a woman.

There are groups that are working and have been working in these areas of violence against women. These groups don't just sit around on it.

Re: Feminism
Sorry PX, I don't follow the point you're making. Women have forgotten how to take a punch, but there are groups fighting against violence against women, except it's just "good old fashioned violence"? Can you explain it to me like I'm five?

1. Since the beginning of time women have been struggling for "equality." At some moments taking our lumps, and at other time finding success.
2. Not all women can be measured the same. Or should be. Not all women be required to be the same as the next.
3. Some women are very capable of violence, as a means to a certain outcome.
I've been thinking about that chart on the other page, Jorge. Maybe more fleshing out the thoughts I've been having since seeing it.
