Society should stop having that stereotypical image of abuse

Abuse isn’t always bloody noses and hungry babies.

Constant yelling/belittling/humiliating your child is abuse.

Making fun of your child’s interests/clothes/looks/insecurities is abuse.

Threatening your child to hurt them if they disobeyed you is abuse.

Calling your child names is abuse.

Making your child feel unsafe is abuse.

Making your child feel guilty for being different is abuse.

This stereotypical image is what makes a lot of abuse survivors doubt their abuse.

Emotional abuse is valid and it’s NOT less important than physical abuse.

System failed to protect four-year-old despite multiple reports and evidence of abuse by mother, boyfriend

It’s people like this “mother” and her boyfriend make me want to bring back public hangings. And it’s an absolute atrocity how they failed to protect that little girl. She came to daycare regularly with bruises and significant bleeding and verbally told them that her mother did it and told her to lie about it. That wasn’t enough get her taken away? Absolutely appalling.

And then I hear stories of families getting on Child Service’s list for having a messy house or not having a full fridge the day before payday. By my experience (not quite far enough away to be considered ‘second hand’) if you know how to play the system you can get away with anything but if you are good parent that tries to keep away from the system, you get ran over.

Exactly. Homeschoolers get brought up on truancy charges but a four-year-old fucking saying “I’m bleeding from my ears and conspicuously bruised because my mother literally hits me every day” apparently isn’t enough. The girl even knew enough to say that mother told her to lie about her injuries and gave them the specific lie that the mother ended up giving them later. Somebody probably dropped the ball on this because they didn’t feel like doing some extra paperwork. As far as I’m concerned they’re accessories to murder.

Watch it in video

No. 

No this is not funny.

Whether or not it is a joke, I’ve gone onto the channel and there are multiple videos similar to this, which makes me think they’re fake.

Doesn’t matter. 

These videos enforce the idea to parents that yes, the answer to stop your child becoming obsessed with games is to DESTROY them.

No. This is not funny. It is things like this that cause events such as the father who SHOT his daughter’s laptop to bits to occur. These jokes enforce the attitude that people are ‘wrong’ for loving games.

For wanting to play games. 

For some people (including myself), games are a serious escape from horrid realities. The only escape some people can get. The idea that this man (boy?) is wrong for being so upset is disgusting to me?

This is horrific. This is abuse. This is wrong.

This is a sure fire way to get your kids to hate you.

do people not understand how much video games cost?

Video games are a multi-billion dollar business. Some people are good at it. Very good. Do not squander your child’s talents, help them realize them and strengthen them. There are other ways to get your child outside without destroying their games and everything they work for. This won’t solve anything; this will only set them back further.

do this to your childs anything and they will automatically hate you/not trust you

It doesn’t matter what it is

It doesn’t matter if its their video games or if its their smoking pipe

If you just destroy it/throw it away, you are giving no explanation as to why it’s bad/you don’t want them to have it

This can actually psychologically mess a kid up because you teach them that if someone doesn’t like something, they should destroy it

That can lead to some serious problems with socializing with others and other things

dont do that to people

dont

I had a notebook I used to write in all the time. I did that thing that Margo did in Paper Towns where she criss crossed her writing, but I did it so I’d have enough room to write everything. I took it everywhere wtih me and wouldn’t let my parents even start the car unless I had in in my lap. My dad got really annoyed by this and said I needed to throw the notebook away, what was written in it wasn’t important anyway (it was to me, very much so). So one day he took and ran it through the paper shredder.
Ever since I’ve had an intense fear of losing my notebooks and currently have a colletion of 53 blank notebooks and 16 that have been written in because I’ve started hoarding them.
Long story short, don’t fucking do this to your kids. You think it’s harmless and some people even think it’s clever, but you’re really just an asshole and are causing actual psychological problems for your children.

I have a plush rabbit that I’ve had since Easter of the year I was born (I was about 2 months old when I got it). It quickly became a comfort thing for me and I used to go everywhere with it as a child. When my mum and dad split up was when I became kind of dependent on having it around.
If ever I did anything wrong mum always threatened to take it away from me, which obviously caused my 6-year-old self to kick and scream and cry because I needed it.
One day I lost it for 6 or 7 months (turns out it was in my room the whole time but shh it was very well hidden & neither myself or my mum know how it got there)
That was the point that my mum realised she couldn’t threaten to take it away because holy shit I changed so much in those months.

Seriously, if your child is dependent on something, or takes great comfort in having it around
DO NOT TAKE IT FROM THEM.
It does not matter how old your child is, what their comfort item is, if it’s a video games console – don’t take it from them. If it’s their phone – don’t take it from them. If they’re 18 and still sleep with a teddybear – don’t take it from them.

This also goes for if your child is self-harming. If they have a blade in their bedroom and you find it DO NOT THROW IT OUT. Talk to them about it, be as supportive as you can, but do not think “oh well if I get rid of it they’ll be fine”. It can be seriously distressing and also lead to them becoming creative with what they use.

I was given my very first computer when I was about 13 on Christmas. I was so excited, because I’d always wanted to have a computer to myself to play PC games and write and use the internet. Eventually, however, after a year of having the computer, my dad started threatening to take it away/smash it/cut off my internet access because according to him, I was “addicted”. To this day, he STILL DOES THIS. I no longer have that desktop computer anymore, as I invested in a laptop with my own money. Does that stop him from basically claiming the laptop as his property to do what he wants with and threatening to smash it on me so that I would “socialize” more? Nope.

No wonder I have a lot of anxiety problems, folks.

Please do not do this to your children. You can and will create serious problems. 

some parents think that because they are the adult, they can do whatever they want to their kids. they are the ruler. i am big, and you are small. i can do whatever i want to you, and you can’t say anything. and if you say anything against it, you are just another teenager who is addicted to “internet land” and you’ll understand how to dominate someone entirely once you get older. 
plus as someone who plays games, that would destroy my life if my parents did that. luckily i have parents who have supported me in life and wouldn’t do something like that. but damn, you could make a kid kill themselves over destroying their games. it’s not cute or funny, though parents posting it to their facebook page and saying “lol-watch this!! kid deserved it” probably think so. but they are right!! teenagers and young adults know nothing. parents can never be flawed. never question authority. your parents are always right.

At first I though this was a joke

Don’t ignore this Tumblr

Yet they still do even when it’s right in their face.

This reminds me of how a friend of mine was abused by the mother of his child. She was mentally unstable and used to berate him constantly and would smack him in the head all the time. It really pissed me off. Then one night she threw hot coffee in his face and tried to stab him with a screwdriver. The cops hauled him off to jail because she made up a sob story that painted herself as the victim. 

Once he left her, he stayed with me and it was a nightmare. She stalked him and me. She would drive by my house obsessively at all hours of the day and night (her muffler made a weird sound so I know it was her). She started showing up at my job, showing up at the places I frequented around town, and filling up my voicemail with dead air. The cops were no help.

One day she got bold enough to talk her way into my home by conning my elderly grandmother, whom I was taking care of, while I was out. She went in my room and went through my stuff (creepy), then found him napping on the couch and attacked him. My grandmother witnessed the whole thing. He grabbed her by the arms, forced her out the front door, and locked it. The cops were called again. They said they’d go and ‘talk’ to her.

The next day we were watching a movie and there was a knock at the door. The police had come to arrest him. She filed a complaint against him and shown off some bruises on her arms from the altercation that she swore were completely unprovoked. My grandmother saw the whole thing since she was in the living room too and testified on his behalf. He still ended up serving jail time.
No one takes male domestic violence victims seriously. They only see males as perpetrators.

    

This is important. Just… everyone needs to see this.

Just because you are a woman abusing your male partner still makes you the abuser. It doesn’t make you empowered. It makes you a physically and emotionally/manipulative bitch who should be behind bars for false accusations when all he did was defend himself.

Hey people that think that feminism means women being held to a higher power than men!!

  1. Justice for male victims is a part of feminism
  2. Justice for male victims is a part of feminism
  3. Justice for male victims is a part of feminism
  4. Justice for male victims is a part of feminism
  5. Justice for male victims is a part of feminism
  6. JUSTICE FOR MALE VICTIMS IS A PART OF FEMINISM
  7. JUSTICE FOR MALE VICTIMS IS A PART OF FEMINISM
  8. JUSTICE FOR MALE VICTIMS IS A PART OF FEMINISM
  9. JUSTICE FOR MALE VICTIMS IS A PART OF FEMINISM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Feminism was the first place I turn to about my emotionally mentally and sexually abusive girlfriend at the time. I mean it only makes sense I was a feminist practice since high school. The feminist that I knew were people that I looked up to. These feminist were my professor, a therapist, some classmates and two of my closest friends. I believed in feminism and I trusted them but when they saw what I was going through over and over again THEY DID NOTHING.

When I talk to them about it  they blame toxic the masculinity an patriarchy on her actions. in short it wasn’t her fault when she would threaten force and harass me into sex and it wasn’t her fault when I woke up in the middle of the night with her on top of me not giving one shit about my consent. it wasn’t her fault because it was mens fault. There was never once an attempt to address her actions or hold her accountable.

When other friends would bring up what they been through and the unfairness that exis, those same

feminist

friends in no uncertain terms told me to my face that is short it’s not that big of a problem because not enough men suffer. 

Since I left feminism some time ago, I begin to notice that has always been one of the top excuses feminist to justify been suffering.

I know the dictionary definition of feminism and I also know how I was treated.    I also know a lot of feminist would say that because of their actions they weren’t real feminist however I have noticed tons upon tons of feminist act the same terrible way. 

With all due respect I am not going back there. Feminism is where my pain felt the most invisible.

I promise I will never forget what feminism has done for me and other men like me AND I WILL NEVER FORGIVE IT.

STOP FEMINISTS COVERING UP BIASING DOMESTIC VIOLENCE and SEXUAL ASSAULTS STATISTICS.

“Today’s refusal to react is a product

of the feminist control over the issue of domestic violence. Female
violence presents both a threat to feminist theory as well as to the
practice of domestic violence law. Notwithstanding such concerns,
today’s myopic understanding of domestic violence has serious implications.
Limiting this examination to the criminal justice system. Feminist definition of domestic violence
has skewed arrest and prosecution philosophies, resulting primarily
in having only male batterers criminally pursued. Rehabilitative programs are geared toward treating domestic
violence as the byproduct of a patriarchal society, thereby
only producing programs which address male violence. Similarly, the
services for domestic violence victims, in particular, the availability
of shelters, have also been shaped by the feminist definition of domestic
violence.” –

HONESTLY DO FEMINIST BELIEVE STUFF LIKE THIS IS GOING TO HELP MEN &BOYS ?

NOTE:

the “Gender-symmetry with gramham Kevan  and 
Thirty Years of Denying the Evidence on Gender Symmetry  documents are no longer available at the University of New Hampshire’s “

Pubpages

“ website. It took me nealy all day but I found the PDFs elsewhere.  Please be sure to Archive and download all links. Given the feminists challenging nature of this formation it should come as no surprise that it disappears incredibly fast. 

In addition

the incriminating

Mary P. Koss “men cant be raped” interview has been removed from SoundCloud. The original WERS 99.9FM “you are here special” no man’s land radio Show episode has also gone missing.

So I can’t stress enough that people archive and backup their sources.

Noting like erasing history it’s unheard of never been done it’s just wrong you don’t see religion,government,citys doing it’s never happened

What really annoys me about those in this one thread who claim that supporting male victims is part of feminism is that they ignore how feminism is responsible for men automatically being seen as perpetrators regardless of circumstances and have done everything to maintain that viewpoint, which is likely where “toxic masculinity”, “mansplaining”, and “manspreading” came from, because those ‘concepts’ reinforce the idea that men are at fault for everything bad ever, even when other men are the victims. – Purple

It’s funny how these feminists try to take credit for helping men, while ignoring the other feminists who have literally broken the law IRL to shut up people who talk about these issues, as shown in those videos above. Heck, feminism still regularly calls abuse “violence against women”. They expect us to believe they help men with absolutely no evidence.

Because they want to believe they help men with absolutely no evidence.

Feminism. The one time we are expected to believe words speak louder than actions.

One thing I don’t understand about the “innocent until proven guilty” mentality is the fact that it only works one way. Women who speak up about rape are believed to be lying until they somehow prove they’re telling the truth.

You seem to be missing the point. The innocent part is the one being accused not the acuser. By your logic I can say your raped me and you should go to prison

I definitely said the mentality. I’m referring to the fact that women are believed to be lying even when they do not name their abuser – even when they’re just talking about personal experiences. People do not understand that rape is more than just something that is illegal. It is a very traumatic life experience that women should be able to speak about without being demonized for it.

Well yeah rape is a verry bad thing and no one should ever lie about it. If its true it harmful to the rapeie if its fails its harmful to the acusie. But this is why people ask for proof. Not to help the rapist or ignore the raped, but to make sure rape stays as a terrible thing and doesnt turn into a random buzzword. And even if its true not naming your abuser is one of the worst things you can do. Time is a huge factor in thse things.

Do you not know how to separate a victim from a rapist? Did you really just call victims “rapeies”?

I have had women I fucking hate for various and deeply personal reasons and when I hear a man in their life is being unkind I believe them. When a girl tells me a guy we both know took advantage of her at a party, I believe her. I don’t give a singular fuck if I was friends with the guy.

We know the fucking hell you monsters put us through for speaking out about what you did to us. We aren’t going to make something like that up and put ourselves through torture just to make you look bad.

I don’t understand why you think “women would never falsely accuse someone of rape!” is a persuasive argument. Because it actually happens. Sometimes over completely petty things. 

The only people you’re going to convince are people in denial, like you.

2-8% false allegations doesn’t really bolster your argument bc men are fucking animals.

Wait a second. First you say “women don’t lie”, period, full stop, and now you have percentages?

Also, those were the numbers for confirmed false accusations. THere are plenty more accusations that are ambiguous.

EDIT: Aaaand blocked. >Apparently

if someone starts a discussion of people not believing women who accuse men of rape, it’s “derailing” to bring up false accusations<. 

Oh, and pointing out that false allegations happen, ever, and justice doesn’t include blindly believing women is “heartless”.

“We should believe all accusations of crimes by everyone about everyone”

That’s OP

That’s how she, or anyone who says that “innocent until proven guilty” is wrong, sounds.

“Innocent until proven guilty” is a really good mentality to have.

Also, I’d like to point out that the amount of false rape accusations is around the same as false accusations of other crimes, as far as I know. I wouldn’t quote me on that, but I have heard that.
