I live next to a guy who gets beaten by his wife. Often I'll see him walk out of his apartment, his wife slam the door and lock it behind him, and him drunkenly sitting down on the ground in front of the door for two hours, waiting for her to let him back in. I used to live across the way from multiple guys who yelled at and hit their wives, and I even heard them walking down the street discussing ways to beat their wives. Anyone else have to deal with this crap on a daily basis?
Prob best to call the cops and hope that the victims of this domestic abuse get enough power to leave their abusive partners.
That's why the law was changed in the USA to where if the responding LEO sees any evidence of physical injury he will make an arrest regardless of what the victim says. The old "I'm not going to press charges" statement from the victim went out the window....
There's probably more women out there beating their husbands than most people realize. I've known many in that situation before (of course women too) The guy's left in a bad spot also, what's he supposed to do in reponse? Its more acceptable in general for a women to defend herself, but if a guy defended himself, for many that would be unacceptable too. There's many resources out there for women to get help / shelter /safe house, but not for guys. Plus, I don't think men who are beaten by women bring it out in the open much, call the police, talk about it, etc. Terrible and damaging for anyone to experience it however.
Voilence doesn't slove any problems . Family violence is even illegal . The last thing I will do is to beat any of my family member. (Fighting with my brother when we are children is a exception. lol )
I suggest move people like that are hopeless losers and cant be helped they should just be shot in the head this is also a reason I will most likely get married since you are stuck with that person and if you divorce she takes half your stuff unless you got her to sign a prenup
Beating your wife? that is "violence against women" and punishable by law. Beaten your husband?..hmm! that could be "husband abuse" and I'm not sure if that is punishable by law.. Anyway, the best thing you can do at this point to help the poor guy is to call 911 anytime you see him weeping out there..
Agreed. Phone the cops. If the guy kills her tomorrow you're going to feel incredibly guilty for not doing something about it.
Thats really stupid, partners hitting each other. My wife and I have an agreement that if either reaches the point that we feel we have to resort to violence against the other, we split, one or the other will leave. There is absolutely no sense in such childish stupidity.
I agree with powerlifter above. My wife volunteers at a shelter for battered women (survivors as they call it). She says the best thing the victim can do is leave and find a safe place. Domestic abuse is difficult to understand if you are not or have not been in it personally. I don't understand myself. Just that my heart goes out to the victims of any abuse.
That's good news. Most victims, even after turning black and blue, are still blinded by love to their husbands. Ans by not pressing charges, chances are it will happen again.
Although wives beating husbands is somewhat rare but the the mental torture they give to husbands is not so rare and is even more brutal than physical beating!! I guess all here agree with this...
Lots of ppl say how do women beat men but it is possible. Its not really in a physical way more of emotional way. Ive never expirenced anything like this nor have had anyone come to me by it. But heard several stories before and best thing to do is to walk away. No need to take it from all those ppl and just getting hurt in relationship. u will find that there are more fish in the sea so to speak
