Domestic Violence Is Not the Result of Patriarchy

As the article says, more women initiate DV, so blaming it on the patriarchy doesn’t hold up and it’s great to see the actual causes of DV addressed. One problem with blaming the patriarchy is it means the real influences go unaddressed.

What I will add is we don’t live in a patriarchy. Any argument blaming the patriarchy is therefore an argument based on a false premise and should be dismissed out hand, full stop. It’s like debating an issue that blames the boogeyman.

When feminists and SJWs make an argument based on patriarchy theory, we shouldn’t debate them, we should just keep pointing out we don’t live in a patriarchy. Once we accept a debate based on a false premise in a sense they’ve already won, because we are conceding to them the false premise.

Patriarchy is like Santa Claus or the tooth fairy, it doesn't exist (and never existed as many think the way it was).

"Patriarchy" is designed and is influenced by women. Everything in a patriarchy is what a woman finds attractive in a man. A provider, protector, a man who never complains, a man who never shows emotions, a man who gives concessions, a man who treats women special "cuz weak". A patriarchy is a matriarchy in disguise.

I said this in another thread on the sub and was downvoted to Hell but I stand by it -

The thing with this Depp Heard trial is - when it is all said and done, they are going to make excuses for Heard.

There are clickbait articles and videos out there. Listen carefully, Heard is in the wrong here. Depp should win. I repeat, Heard is wrong. BUT

There are videos and articles out there exaggerating things about the court proceedings. Heard is wrong, BUT we can see that without these exxagerated videos and articles. The problem with them is - when Depp wins, they will be used to diminish the victory and what it represents.

This kind of thing already happens. Women behave badly a lot of the time. They have actions that are bad or gross but get a pass because they are a woman. If you acknowledge these behaviors - they call you an incel, tell you that you have a small penis, etc. All because they want to continue the behavior without judgement and they don't want the behavior on the radar.

The same thing will happen with this case. It is shedding light on certain behavior and taking powerful tools away from women. So they are going to say that Heard didn't get a fair deal and weaponize certain things to diminish and take away from what Depp's win will mean.
