It’s disgusting,but I don’t find it that shocking. Jezebel has routinely demonstrated that it gives no shits about problems men face (unless they’re gay), so this is just them being direct about it. It reminds me of those “Red Pill” sites that talk about needing to keep your woman in line with a good smack every now…

It keeps popping up because it’s all over the MRA internet as an example of Jezebel’s hypocrisy for supporting female abuse of men while criticizing male abuse of women.

Yep. I particularly enjoyed the girl who casually admitted to drunkenly beating up her boyfriend, and her only concern was how she could stop feeling bad about it.

I’m glad it wasn’t just me that got a “hey you might like this article where a bunch of feminists talk about how great it is to beat the men in their lives!

It is bananas that this post, in this tone specifically, exists.

In Australia it’s one in three, close to 40%. That’s not including the fact that men do not normally report abuse or if they do they get laughed at.

Whoever "Petronella" was, she was wrong.

I created an account solely to respond to your vile, and odious post. You are nothing but a weak coward. You claim you'll hurt your abusive, rapist ex if you ever see him again, but from the way you wrote that post i bet you did nothing, didn't you? You never "beat the shit" out of him did you? the one who truly was…

just as long as the roles aren't reversed. cuz, you know, we're all equal but some are more equal than others.

It's right there above the part about pre-meditatively intending to murder her ex with malice aforethought.

In the intervening years unbiased studies have been done, finally, which show there are actually more male victims of intimate partner violence than female victims. Female perpetrators outnumber male perpetrators 2 to 1. As the article above amply demonstrates, this is not seen as a problem. Resources are not…

Yeah it's really ok if you feel bad about it afterwards. I think I'm going to go beat up my girlfriend now, but as long as I feel bad about it when she is bleeding on the floor with a broken nose it's all good.

I don't know. If you do something he doesn't like - talk on the phone too loudly while he's watching his favorite show and he slaps you hard in the face without warning, that'd be justified, not abuse, right?

All these stories are making you feel more normal. Great, because shitty, shitty people need to feel normal. You had a choice, you could dump a bad boyfriend or commit a felony. You went with commit a felony because you're a criminal piece of shit. I don't know what this site's policy is on personal abuse and I…

We definitely should have men's shelters. I'm really disappointed in this article. :(

We should just ignore the minority then because they aren't as important right? The truth is that male face violence 4 times a often as females, yet laws are put in place such a the VAWA to protect the minority of victims of violence.

I love this comment so much.

"Yes, please, let's not forget the poor men, who make up a whopping 15% of the domestic violence victims (nonsarcastic saide: this includes situations in which the violence is mutual, or the woman used violence in response to violence), who are far less likely to be hurt by domestic violence given the differences in…
