Domestic Violence.

Now forewarning: I dont want anyone to take this the wrong way, i am in no way saying domestic violence is right or promoting it at all, this is just my experience that i am dealing with at this moment.

I think it is absolutely stupid how one of my best friends cant come hang out with us and if he does we have to go check and see if someone is there because of a dumb girl. there is a 50b out on my best friend because she did not like how the break up they experienced turned out so she went to the courthouse, put her hand on a bible and swore he hit her and she was scared for her life. the NEXT DAY after the "beating"  they were in the car with me and they were very loving and kissing and she wanted to be around him. the day after she is terrified for her life because of the "incident" and since then she has went out of her way to be where she knows he usually goes, calls the police and has him arrested. I pretty much heard her say all she wants is him in jail as much as possible. i just think the court system should have a way to weed out the real domestic violence from the revenge tactics. im not sure how they'd go about this, but i have seen this happen more then once and i think that this type of situation needs to get handled, and soon.

Women and Commercials

*Even though this is a banned commercial, it can still make my point:
People use women in advertisements to get you to purchase something by using some sort of sexual attraction. Appealing to guys, of all ages, to use or buy the product by using women in bras and thongs or other underwear, bikini's, or some sort of skimpy outfit. I think this is because men will relate the product to the image they see. If they enjoy the image they "have" to enjoy the product. Its kind of like the alcohol commercials, the man drinking is surrounded by half naked women who all want to be around him. So subconsciously they believe if they drink that same drink they will get the same results.

Liberation bad for women?????

Ok, so what I really want to know is...
1. How are WOMEN different from MEN? Why can't MEN be different from WOMEN?
2. What is the difference of completely equal rights then rights of human beings?
3. And how do we have a different fate than men because they were born with a penis and we were born with a vagina?
This guy makes no sense or supports this statement. How can people really think that just because we are different "down there" that we don't all deserve the same rights and privileges. All this guy is doing is marginalizing women and pushing them aside so he can control and dominate.

Women as Objects

It makes me really happy to see that a guy is standing up for womens rights. And for a guy not only to say it is our choice on the internet, but for him to also say that people, guys mainly, need to quit calling women who abort names. I have the same view point as him. I don't necessarily like abortion, but what he said was true. We get to decide what comes or doesn't come out of our body.
I know this is a touchy topic but that makes it even more special that someone is speaking up and it being a GUY!
I feel like this is a huge step for women. We are finally getting a voice. I know that before I was born we had even less rights, but as I've grown up, especially with abortion rights, it wasn't always our choice, we had to "go with the flow" or stand up for ourselves, which most of us are to scared to do.
