Yes yes yes. I finally have a place where I can talk about how much I agree with this without being accused of being an abuser myself..
Whenever I hear of a woman who was "abused" by her man my response is generally "wow, what did she do to p|$$ him off?".
With some exceptions of course, like there are everywhere in life, men just do not go around beating their women. Even men who are under the influence of sh|t, they may generally get more c0ckey and talk more smack but 8 times out of 10 the woman eggs it on, provokes it. I think they do this for 1 or both of 2 reasons:
1) she tries to see how far she can push it. It's like a challenge to her, how much can I tease the bear while he is mad before he gets me. I think women who do this get off on it.
2) her ego takes over and she tries to push her "dominance" onto the man, and he only takes so much before he looses it. I have had several exes where we would fight, I would get p|$$ed and leave the room or house, and she would follow me to try and get the last word in. Then I would go off, not physically, but yell hard and let her really have it. Then she would act surprised like "Why did he just do that?" like she had no idea what caused it.
I also agree with Sylvester too, there are some women who think they deserve it. But I think a lot of that goes back to my #1, they like it.
Great post
