Fuck, I saw something that pissed me off in a washroom |
|
In a men's room at a local pub. There was a comic above the urinal. It was of a guy on the couch and his wife in the other room. There was a "fire alarm" style glass case with a baseball bat in it. Underneath it said "In case she gets lippy, break glass." I'm a fairly crude guy known to laugh at many a joke.... but man, that fucking made me angry. I'm thinking of writing a letter to the bar about it. That shit just isn't funny, it was disturbing.
Oh, but I'm supposed to laugh.

I'm glad to hear your reaction though. That must mean there are a few good men out there.

6. What kind of man needs a bat? |
|
:hide:
No, really, dudes who beat on women need to be thrown in a sack and used as Chuck Norris' kick-bag

8. I flipped by one of those TV news magazine shows |
|
the other night...might have been 20/20...anyway, a woman had spent months disguised as a man to gain insights into the experience...once she went to a man's retreat (the drumbeating kind) and she said she was terrified because some of the men were discussing their fantasies of cutting their wives into pieces...jesus... :scared:

10. I'm sure the bat was to use to render HIMSELF unconscious |
|
so that he didn't have to hear her "get lippy" with him. No real man would find any sort of violence against a woman, bat or barehand, funny.

11. Aw, in a slapstick context it can be funny |

In a domestic abuse context, not so much. This cartoon is unfortunately the latter.

12. Men hitting women is never funny. NEVER. Not even in a bar. |
|
Take a crowbar with you next time, rip the fucker off the wall, and throw it in the dumpster.
That's where it belongs.

15. We just have stuff like "Make Love not War! Or |
|
Make both. Get married!" That is more quaint than hostile. Also next to it a slogan says, "Don't throw cigarette butts in our urinals. We don't piss in your ashtrays!"

16. That's fucking disgusting |
|
I really don't want to advocate violence here, but whoever thought that was funny really needs to encounter a woman who won't take his shit.
