What right has the woman to beat the man and no one intervenes.

As the cop says who was a witness to the beating, "if it was the man doing it, I would have stopped it".

What?

A woman has no right to assault a man, and I've never heard anyone suggest otherwise. You seem to be arguing with imaginary voices, reas!


FWIW - The makers of the first video you linked to have a valid point, I think. The guys in the other videos you linked to are just stupid arseholes.

sexism - as "man-hating" feminists have been telling people since the 60s or so - is bad for both men and women

if a woman is beaten by a man she is seen as a helpless victim or a bitch who deserves it, depending on the observer and a variety of many other factors

if a man is beaten by a woman he is seen as a worthless wuss

same sexist attitudes are at work in both cases
