One is too many?

I once got the shit beat out of me (at a high school party) for grabbing the wrists of my drunk GF in an attempt to stop her from continuing to hit me. When she could no longer make contact with my face she began to cry and yell, "You're hurting me!" The I got rocked by five dudes playing the hero.

One falsely accused man is too many.

I think a big problem with teaching kids, "It's never okay to hit a woman" is that young girls learn that it's okay to physically abuse boys in order to get what they want. While it's constantly reinforced for men that hitting a girl is never okay, girls get a constant reminder that they are "invincible."

It would be better to teach kids that violence isn't the correct way to handle feelings of anger, something none of the women depicted in that video seem to understand, but that self defense is acceptable.

Honestly, it's self defeating for the feminists when you hear things like, "a woman could never abuse a man" because that's implying that women are too weak to harm anyone else.

So if you come home and find your wife or a female baby sitter drowning your kids one by one in the bathtub, you're supposed to just call 911 and hope your kids can hold their breath long enough until a female officer to arrive?

Imagine, if I were to make a campaign that specifically says "Stop violence against males" A lot of feminists would be pretty pissed, that I exclude women, right? So, how the everliving hell is it okay the other way around?

Also, what kind of stupid statement is that "You can never hit a woman"? What about self-defense? What about defending somebody else, who's innocent from being attacked? Should you not help the victim, regardless of whether the attacker is male or female?

Do you honestly believe this? Do you honestly believe that "a lot" of feminists would be seriously angered by a targeted attempt to stop violence perpetrated against men?
