This is what feminism does. If not for feminism, how many men could've seen this movie and came forward with the abuse they were experiencing? Maybe we'd even have some domestic violence shelters for men.

Fuck feminism.

"Look what you make me do"

This jumped out and stabbed me in the face when she said it in the movie after her violence. According to women, this been the claimed mantra of the oppressive male justifying domestic violence, but in reality its women who truly say and believe it in their batshit insane minds. Its like your woman accusing you of cheating because its she who is the one cheating.

I would love to see the justification for having this banned.

This was... Simply an amazing watch. It shows how little the issues for men have changed since the file was released. The immediate assumption of male guilt, the lack of men's shelters, the social stigma about coming out about the abuse. All of it is so sadly relevant, even 20 years on.

Wow, the timing on this is amazing. Indulge me for a moment:

In 1989 I dated a girl who beat me - I left after the second time she hit me.

In the early 90s I told my mother about it and asked her to watch this movie with me, which she did. It was a great gesture on her part.

Just last month during Thanksgiving dinner, she asked me about my exGF. I kept telling her I didn't want to discuss it. It quickly became clear that she'd forgotten this GF had abused me.

I reminded her about it and the movie but she didn't remember a thing. I was quite heartbroken about it. :(

I can't believe it's been 20 years since it came out, nor can I believe it's never been re-aired.

Edit: grammar

Misandrists can't let men be painted in ANY sympathetic light EVER.

I just did a quick bit o' research. The movie was never rebroadcast on CBS, but it was shown on Lifetime. And there's a full video of it on YouTube.
