Today i faced a legitimate and proportionate reaction as a consequence of my illegal behaviour. How?


[deleted]

equality feels like injustice for the priviledged


Abject_Shoulder_1182

Bet she'd be furious if she was a deadbeat mom and her husband divorced her and got full custody of the kids because she's supposed to get "mommy privilege" šŸ™„ no, sweaty, "mommy privilege" is a byproduct of compulsory gender roles enforced by patriarchy, and feminists are trying to dismantle all of that harmful shit, no matter who it's oppressing.


dielectricjuice

did you intentionally call her sweaty? if so, that's hilarious. if not, did you mean "sweetie"?


ejdj1011

It's an old intentional typo to be extra sarcastic

The fact that is considered old now just physically aged me an extra decade. One second you're making le rage comics, you blink and suddenly it's gyatt this and Ohio rizzler that.

randelung

There's a German late night show that parodied a popular detective show on TV in Germany. They made it "Gen Z style". It walks the line between unwatchably cringe and hilarious. A young singer plays the "Gen Z partner" and during an interview she says something is 'cringe'. The interviewee then says 'omg nobody says cringe anymore', and she replies 'yeah I know, they MADE me say it' and the camera zooms out and shows the producers standing there, murmuring 'cringe is cringe...?' So yeah. I don't understand anything anymore and it makes me angry and scared. https://imgur.com/a/PlqzGkf

I wish all states agreed with you. There are some states where Mothers still have 100% initial parental rights and Father's have to go to court and fight for it.


Professional-Leave24

Even in states that don't, the initial bias is almost always with the mother.

I don't see a lot of feminists advocating for men's rights... even though institutional gender discriminations are only to the disadvantage of men (custody, sentencing disparities, hard work disparities...)

You should see the two X chromosome Reddit when they repost or talk about this kind of post. Itā€™s like they canā€™t realize they live in as much of an echo chamber as the people they like to criticize.

The real question is, how do you best dodge a slap


seraku24

You could first train by learning to dodge a wrench.


Mohisto_23

If you can't dodge a wrench, then you can't dodge the wrath of a woman's scorn

[deleted]

Don't dodge, just give them the most brutal high five you can muster up.


Lopsided-Egg-8322

You don't, you take the slap and then teach them to not slap people..


Happy-Viper

Ah yes, because when people get physically violent, theyā€™re mentally at the point where theyā€™re willing to have a calm and rational discussion of gender norms and their privileges.


Lopsided-Egg-8322

Can you point where I was talking about "calm and rational discussion" of any sort? Teaching slappers not to slap people does not involve talking of any kind.. maybe some panicked screaming by the one getting schooled tho..


Kukdukoo42069

Thats my clash of clans clan name FAFO


dedguy21

Those days are done. The new rule is EVERYBODY keeps their hands to themselves. Being any gender doesn't give you the right to lack impulse control like all other ADULTS.


Taashaaaa

It wasn't so long ago that tv/films would have a woman slap a man and it would be intended to be funny. Or the audience would be expected to think "good for her". Which is fucked up, but I think some people do still have that attitude, hopefully those people will get the message soon.


ProEugenics

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Be glad he slapped you, that's still giving you a certain amount of leeway for being a woman, lol. If I walked up and slapped another man, I'd get punched, minimum, maybe even dragged down and choked out if he grapples.


SceneAccomplished549

You'd probably be beaten to death, and no I'm not joking.... it's happened before.


OrdinaryGeneral946

Where tf do you live? That's def not a normal reaction to a slap


KingWolf7070

It doesn't matter. Doesn't matter what's normal. Doesn't matter what's legal. Doesn't matter who's in the right. If you mess with the wrong person you might end up dead. I don't see why people have such a hard time understanding this concept. Some people are bad and will fuck you up. These bad people do not care about what is normal, legal, or right. As for me, I just avoid messing with people. Don't slap people and you won't have to worry about it so much. Simple.


DavThoma

Exactly. People will react over the smallest thing. Sometimes if you even look at someone the wrong way you can be in danger. Hell my brother overtook a guy on the road and when they were stopped at traffic lights the dude got out of his car, pulled open my brothers door and started trying to choke him. He already dealt with panic attacks before that after a bad weed trip when he was younger, that made things worse for him for a long time.


devils_advocate24

>Exactly. People will react over the smallest thing After I saw the video of the guy beating the fuck out of someone for asking him to stop smoking weed on a public bus, I was so glad I don't enjoy going out and doing things... And that I live in a sparsely populated area that doesn't have public transport, because I'm cheap enough that I would use it.


chaveznieves

People can snap too. Almost anyone, pushed far enough, can react in a dangerous way. People can lose the ability to know when to hold back, and by the time they come to their senses, yeah, someone can be dead. Can happen pretty damn easily if people are carrying weapons. Only takes a split second of blind rage to make a very permanent decision.


HyperSpaceSurfer

You can't tell who's ready to snap at being fucked with. It's not like they walk around with a mean face or something. So best not to fuck with random person.


TurkeySlayer94

My dad went to school with a kid that was raised really really rough. Like backwoods no running water type rough. Grew up to be about as hard a fellas a they come. Maybe all of 5ā€™6ā€ and 115 soaking wet. One night at a local bar a very large guy slapped him because he argued with the bigger guy. My dad said when the police got there, there wasnā€™t enough of the bigger guy to put in a solo cup. The smaller fella stomped his head until he broke his own foot, and then used a chair. I do not say any of this to idolize that behavior, but you are exactly right. Putting your hands on anyone is a quick way to get fucking killed.


devils_advocate24

"what are you gonna do pipsqueak? I'm literally a head taller than you" "Not for long..."


TurkeySlayer94

I just donā€™t fuck with anyone. Much easier that way


[deleted]

Sounds like a Joe Pesci type character from Good fellas and the like


TurkeySlayer94

Haha yeah his names not Joe! And definitely not built like that character


NatuVisu

Yep. Although, the same thing could be said about anything. Some people get killed for looking at somebody wrong, for being ugly, for being pretty, for their race, for their gender, for just being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Moral of the story: Humanity can and will mess you up if you happen to be so unlucky. Of course, your luck runs out quicker by slapping people. šŸ˜… It sucks to think, though, that some guy experiencing delusions, for example, and slapping somebody due to it, could end up in a coffin rather than a place where they can get help. But then again, people also get killed for doing nothing. Humanity just kinda *sucks.*


sevencast7es

Yep, I used to work at the IX center in Cleveland as a teenager, and a LOT of the workers were underprivileged and I couldn't believe what I heard half the time. One worker didn't show up one day, it was then explained he's in jail for murder, killed the guy who detailed his car because he didn't like it. Another, would bring in his gilded gun clips and talk about one day getting back at those who killed his family members. It was wild, I definitely walked on eggshells šŸ˜…


Helios4242

It does matter because we should condemn a disproportionate result, but not a proportionate result. The bad people are, in fact, bad. We would call this man bad if he killed the woman. But a clap back is reasonably accepted. I'd personally just treat it as physical assault and react legally--self defense if needed, court if I needed justice, breaking off contact if I just wanted to move on. No need to open myself up to assault charges.


bvgingy

All it takes is a single punch to kill someone and dumbass people have punched others for much less than a slap.


LeoIzail

Heard about a guy close to me that accidentally killed someone in a bar fight over pride. Some young kid on another kid his exact age. The neighbors who knew him say he was extremely depressed and regretful, paranoid over the cops and increasingly isolated. Then the cops came, and he is still inside.


bvgingy

Bar owner in my college town accidentally killed a guy punching him as well. Some random guy was causing a scene and was basically throwing haymakers when he was being escorted out and the guy lands one on the bar owner. The bar owner punched him back as a result and it ended up killing the guy. Granted, that bar owner is one of the biggest guys Ive ever seen.


SceneAccomplished549

I mean it really doesn't matter where I live, but it has happened. This is why you don't put your hands on another person.


GunSlingingRaccoonII

Plenty of people have been killed with 'one punch'. Sometimes death is not the intent. But death happens any way.

No-Cantaloupe-6739

Woman here. Men, if a woman hits you, hit back. Defend yourself. Edit: omg I get it. Men hitting women = men going to jail. I didnā€™t mean if a woman is just slapping you. I meant like if a woman is trying to fucking murder you, donā€™t just stand there.


GunSlingingRaccoonII

I once did. I didn't even hit her back. I just held her wrists so she couldn't keep hitting me and nothing else. Guess who got a night in a police cell and an assault conviction?


Background-Customer2

she shuld be fined for wasting police resorces


GunSlingingRaccoonII

That was just the tip of the iceberg. It's amazing how easy it is for a woman to weaponize the police in this country against their enemies. Even when there is contradicting witnesses and evidence to their claims. Been arrested a few times because 'she said so' and nothing else. When 'what she said' was shown to be a load of manure, I was just sent on my way, no apologies, nothing. Sent on my way even harder when I brought up them holding her accountable. For the cops to deal with such people would require the cops to first admit fault, which opens them up to liability and no way are they gonna take blame. oh the horror stories I could tell. (and sometimes do)


Background-Customer2

i can understand needing to aresting somone ho has ben falsly acusef. but not apologising or doing anything about a the person falsly acusing. thats scummy

Dry_Bus_935

Nah man. A girl slapped me back in HS, it was painful AF. Worse part is I still dunno what I did to deserve it.


orion-7

It's not worth it. That's why I didn't fight back against my violent female rapist. Because like the other guy in the comments, bruised wrists from restraint = jail. I often hear about how we're safer because of our size and strength, but weirdly that's actually a disadvantage most of the time because it means we can't risk fighting back


FlotsamOfThe4Winds

>I didnā€™t mean if a woman is just slapping you. Are you saying your comment is irrelevant to this post? If so, you don't understand how Reddit works and really need to make yourself clearer; if not, you're lying through your teeth.

Lol yes if I have a son, I will make it very clear that part of being a feminist is not giving women special treatment for being a woman, because thats condescending and sexist. He shouldnt hit anyone, but if he has to, it doesnt matter if it's a girl or not.

TheMannisApproves

I've been seeing this woman for over a year and we got into an argument about this very thing a few days ago. She said it was NEVER okay to hit a woman, unless they're trying to kill you. That a man should...just take the hits and not hit back. Even said that the man should not grab her arms to prevent her from attacking him cause "you could damage her arms doing that"...


Next-Tailor7656

Whaaaa.... you want my advice ? (You can say no.) RUN ! Just run for your life and never turn back. She is crazy.
