Cim, I'm not judging the entire gender. I'm just stating an obvious fact - a lot of women are manipulative, greedy, dishonest and not trustworthy. Why would honest, trustworthy women have a problem with that statement?

Cim, you don't know anything about domestic abuse. I've been stabbed in the chest four times by an ex. Have you? She was 100lbs, I'm double that. Does that mean I wasn't a victim?
Your position sounds to me like, men are bigger, they can abuse if they choose to, so they are guilty whether they do it or not. It's a disgusting thing to do - to just an entire gender because they tend to be physically stronger. But many men I know cannot hit women, and women know that so they abuse their immunity. If a guy had stabbed me four times in the chest, they wouldn't be alive today. But a woman does it and I didn't raise do a thing.
And, the other part - your declaration that we need to give women the benefit of the doubt. That's just sick. When you give women the benefit of the doubt, you're convicting men without good reason. And that happens all the time in America, every day. Lawyers counsel women - claim abuse, and you get everything. Claim abuse, you get the house, the kids, child support, everything.
And when everybody cries wolf, the cry loses its credibility. Women in real danger aren't getting the attention they need, because scum bag women make false claims for finiancial or other reasons.
