It's a mystery why people who experienced a trauma tend to repeatedly create or to run into situations where the trauma will be repeated. The most convincing theory on this is that in some people the brain subconsciously and compulsively attempts to "resolve" the trauma by going through it again and again - in the "hope" to find a solution. Unfortunately, the solution does never happen, but the compulsion to expose oneself to such situations continues to exist. Strikingly, concerned people aren't aware about their own contributions to get involved into things that will cause the same troubles as they have experienced in the past.

Dude,
the IDEA of your argument is sound; I actually agree with it.
Women shouldn't hit men either. I agree.
I look at the "men shouldn't hit women" thing like "truck drivers have to be extra careful". No one wants to get into an accident, but the potential for harm is much greater.
But...
your argument about men and women being equivalent in size and strength EVEN AT THE SAME BODYWEIGHT just doesn't jibe with statistics, or physiology. Are there very strong women? Yes. But, statistically, the average strength of a group of men at a given bodyweight is going to be much higher than a group of women even at the same bodyweight. MALE HORMONES MAKE MEN CARRY MORE MUSCLE FOR A GIVEN BODYWEIGHT.
If I were in your shoes, I would make the argument from a moralistic point of view, not physiological.CSCS, ACSM cPT.

1. I don't think that guy is 140. I wrestled 138 at that height in high school and was WAY more muscular than that guy. He is lean so it wasn't a "leanness" factor.
2. You said hormones only make a difference when one lifts weights. Where were/are the OVERALL female record holders (vs. men) in boxing, wrestling, martial arts, swimming, running etc etc etc? The acceptance of weight training for sports is RELATIVELY new? If your "theory" were correct, then the record books would have been littered with women holding ABSOLUTE (versus men) world records.CSCS, ACSM cPT.

so you saw a dude slapping a hoe and he is automatically abusing her?
after taking her home and all that, did you ask her what got him to slap her?
back to the " Women, why do girls go back to guys that abuse them?", have you actually noticed what these girls call abused????
It's dam nonsense how much women exaggerate to be the "victims". dam all the attention crazing and need to fit in the "I have gone through sooooo much in my life"
women deserve it at times (as do men if they push it too far). I would say don't get into a couples business. You don't know their past or what their limits of respect are.Last edited by UT_7ACE7_; 11-27-2008 at 07:19 PM.

Sometimes it's easier to stay in a relationship than it is to leave-- I think we can all relate to that in some form, but it can be especially true if the woman feels endangered by leaving. If they live together, work together, share the same circle of friends, etc, it can be so difficult...
Every situation is different. From an outsider's point of view it's hard to comment. All we can do is hope that she finds the strength.Act as if!

Men are generally stronger and more powerful than women, but it doesn't mean to say that this gives women the right to beat up guys, and yet men can't be expected to defend themselves. That's just stupid.
If a woman was about to smack me on the head with a weapon or some ****, I would certainly defend myself. I'm not an idiot to stand there like a ass.
Men should never hit women and women should never hit men.Last edited by drew101; 11-27-2008 at 08:47 PM.

I think it goes like this, a woman who has lots of sex is derided a whore, a man who beats a woman, is a wife beater. Those two are very touchy subjects for our sexes. Its just sexual generalizations man, no one should hit anyone and someone who likes to have sex with multiple people should be considered a harlot. *In accordance to secular belief of course*.
