WAS SPOUSAL ABUSE LESS COMMON PLACE OR JUST HIDDEN IN YOUR GENERATION?


[+] serious ballot by larrynelmira
ACTIVE Sun Oct 29, 06 - Mon Oct 29, 07

I’m doing a report on reliving your childhood, and was amazed that many people said they wouldn’t want to go through that again because they wouldn’t want to see their mother abused by their father again.

Was that something you experienced, and if so was it common but never spoken about?

I don’t want to hear from that Geico Caveman , but was there a caveman mentality in your day toward women?

I know of course this still happens, I am just surprised so many told me it happened in their day.

Yes was common but never spoken of
No
Yes
I don't know

Can't tell you how many women I saw in neighborhoods I grew up in, seeing women walking around abttered and bruised, saying only that they had "accidents".

I see it everyday, and truthseeker, they still say was just an accident.

SORRY I PUT THIS IN PRIVATE SO IT WOULD NOT BE BURIED THIS SUNDAY MORNING, FORGOT TO ASK SECOND PART OF MY QUESTION, WOULD YOU WANT TO RELIVE YOUR CHILDHOOD AND IF NOT WHY.

YOU COULD HELP ME WITH MY PAPER IF YOU COULD PLEASE ANSWER THAT.

Societes where women are considered the property of men tend to be more tolerant of domestic violence or violence against women in general. Until recently, the typical wedding ending with a declaration to that effect: "I now pronounce you man (no possession implied) and wife (possession of the man implied). Now it is more common to hear, "I now pronounce you husband and wife (each owned by the other implied).

Wouldn't relive my childhood if given the opportunity, because of seeing my mother abused in our home & having personally been abused by family friends as a small child.

There were always violent jerks, and always will be.

As to reliving my childhood, no to that. I was painfully shy back then.

My parents didn't ever fight, argue yes but never ever laid a finger on each other in anger. They saved it for us.

'WOULD YOU WANT TO RELIVE YOUR CHILDHOOD AND IF NOT WHY.' Yes and no, I'd relive the odd holiday, first experiences, first mucky mag, first kiss, sex etc. The rest you can keep, especially school.

My dad never hit my mom but he was never there.

Not just hit but threatening to hit us, by hitting walls next to us and scaring us with your fist, and yelling like maniacs really hurts. Like i can feel totally happy, playing, laughing with the kids and then BAM, he has to do this, and it's horrible...i suddenly feel broken, that's the only word i can think of, it sucks. Abuse sucks
