I was raped in college. My mom was molested as a tween. My MIL was beaten by her ex. My first husband’s mom was beaten by her ex. A co-worker at my first job was killed by her abusive husband in a murder suicide. A co-worker of my sister’s killed his wife and then himself when she left him.

Every woman I know has…

Destroy the Joint have been doing their ‘Counting Dead Women’ posts for a couple of years now (https://www.facebook.com/DestroyTheJoin…). They count every time a woman in Australia is killed by violence. As of the end of May the toll was 31. At the moment we are averaging 2 per week with a national total population of…

a version of The Counted for women killed by male partners for one year

Look, come on. Crime bad, yeah. Don’t kill people, people! It’s not an okay thing to do.

If I remember correctly, s/he is also the one who argued passionately that it’s super important to police how women dress instead of policing men who sexually harass and abuse women, because that would fix the problem forever, and if didn’t, it would at least ensure that no woman ever got blamed for it again. And then…

These killings are the result of a culture of toxic masculinity intersecting with (in most cases) gun culture.

Maybe pull that sock inside out. Who assaults women by a huge majority? Men. Who assaults men by a huge majority? Men. So, regardless of who is the victim of an assault, I’m not sure what your argument is proving except that men tend to be more dangerous than women. Yeah. That sounds right.

That’s what you took from my response, that I’m terrified of the world around me. Fine. But considering the inordinate amount of violence at the hands of men the women in my family alone have dealt with, my love of life and the world is a victory. At one point in my life almost every woman I knew had been sexually…

Maybe not wrong but definitely not great considering the context of this post. A post about the women who were murdered by their SO's and your reaction is "But men are assaulted way more than woman".

I’m not trying to minimize, but that’s exactly what I’m going to do. Every time a spot light is shone on violence against women, on any site, the response is you don’t have it that bad. Men have it way, way worse. Thanks, I feel so much better now.

Thank you. As a society we allow this situation to exist. We act like nothing can be done. But in most of these cases, I’m sure, these men were throwing red flags that no one in authority took seriously. And, yes, it’s mostly men that do it. And, yes, it’s mostly women who are abused and killed. And, yes, if we cared…

Just in the Dallas area, there were two other new stories involving men killing women.

Pakistani woman killed after rejecting marriage proposal.

Thank you thank you thank you.

Me too. I’m starting to get back into the dating game at 35, and between the actual guys I’ve met lately, and these kind of stories, crazy cat lady spinsterhood is looking better and better.

Word on the street is that they have mutual court orders where neither of them can say the other’s name in public (Future was threatening to sue her for slander or something not too long ago)

Wow. A lot of people are breaking their necks and stretching their imaginations to feel sorry for Future. He’s a so-called grown man, if he can’t deal with someone refusing to say his name, then he should learn how to not call people out of their name.

Uh uh! If it was ruined for me, I have to spread the misery. He’s a douche. Cheated on his current wife and got a woman pregnant, then managed to convince a judge that he should have custody of that baby just so he wouldn’t have to pay child support. The baby was taken away from the mother before it was even a year…

I will forever be doing that dodge move when my ex's name is said. I love it!

I included the Top R&B Artist category (when she tells Ludacris she’s going to let him take it) in the clip, because it sort of reads to me like she got confused and thought Top Rap Artist would be next?
