I Dont Understand Why People Think Domestic Abuse Is Ok

It is wrong to harm anyone. We are not animals to one another esp to the ones whom we cohabitate with. No one ever was to be a 2nd class citizen. Why a lot can tolerate? It has to be punishable and not allowed to have any partnership legally for lifetime. People who can do harm to others are not meant of company.

How is it that you think that people approve of domestic abuse?
I can't think of a single person that thinks that.

@Budwick a lot people do, they only protect who harms them.

@Sepia Do I understand you correctly?
That the abused protect the abuser?

Sepia · 36-40, F

@Budwick true there were cases. A woman protects a man only because of financial dependence.

Budwick · 70-79, M

@Sepia I'm sure there are many cases.
One hears of this often - women afraid of repercussions,...

Abused women however does not equal people in general. They're a pretty narrow demographic.

@Budwick can you explain "narrow demographic"

@Sepia [quote]can you explain "narrow demographic"[/quote]

Sure!

The number of abused women afraid of repercussions
divided by the number of people

I don't know the actual numbers that would be plugged into this formula, but I'm guessing it's gonna be a small number. That small number is what I called a narrow demographic.
