Abuse of women?

[007XX]

Yeah a "fix" is a challenge, but I was actually referring to women that abuse kids.

Either way we see eye to eye on it. It's abuse... and it's destructive... pure and simple.

Absolutely! inexcusable in my view...how could anyone do such a thing (man or woman) is so beyond me.

Domestic Abuse No Longer A Problem, Say Bruised Female Researchers

Is that supposed to be funny?

The cure for women - I'm not sure...

Time and coming to terms about what happend. Looking back at it but from a different angle with some careful guidance.

63.1% of all statistics published in newspapers are made up. The margin of error increases from 6.3% to 36.2% when a grievance industry is involved.

According to a study by the University of Auckland a quarter of women were abused as children. I'm thinking "Holy shit I'm naive" coz I never thought that. Fark, I dunno is this real?

Given the results of the now defunct study called "Women That Chris Has Dated", I'd say 25% is about right. The small sample set doesn't allow us to draw any firm conclusions, however.

I like the sentiment, but wonder if your sig is perhaps a little ironic.

Yes, my small and unscientific research sample also says that 25% is about right. I base that on conversations with female friends, colleagues and family members - whenever the subject comes up, about 25% of women will 'own up' to having been sexually abused.

And I'm not talking about behaviour that might have been acceptable in times gone by (eg a smack on the bottom). This is stuff that is serious abuse and has never been ok.

[Colapop]

Sexual abuse is never ok. I cannot understand how guys can do this...? As a guy I cannot comprehend the harm that it would do to a woman.

Assume the population is 60% women, of which 25% were abused, carry the 1.....minus the number of men.......
= 92% of women complain about something.
Aren't statistics lovely

Very true, as with harming anyone for no damn reason is bad.
I'm not saying that you are wrong about this crusade - i just fear for all the women out there that do complain, one day the judge will just believe they are crying "Wolf". Or do we need to bring up certain police cases?

[Colapop]

This is not a crusade. I was just surprised by stats (however right or wrong) and have always felt that it is better to have reasonable discussion about a topic than ignore it in the hopes that it doesn't exist.

i voted yes... wont go in to details, but if anyone knows a fix, let me know. counselling didnt work.

We are whats called "damaged goods".....am thankfull Im not sitting in a corner rocking..Apparently if I have regressive therapy the memories will destroy me..Happy Happy Joy Joy

Neither was I. What I REALLY want to know is, why it is OK to abuse, sexually or otherwise, boys and men? Why does everyone just shrug and go, "whatever", whenever anyone brings it up? Why do women get funding, research, newspaper articles, and everything they say accepted as truth, where men are likely to end up be shunned if they dare open their mouths?

Offending rates against children won't have a gender bias. I guarantee it. It will just be reporting rates that differ.

When are women going to stand up and help sort out the denial that it doesn't happen to little boys, or if it does the general, unspoken consensus seems to be that they deserve it for being male?

[Colapop]

Very true words Jim. Thank you for making this point also.
