DaasYochid,
there’s no point in making diyukim and speculating on a poster’s sinister intentions
Stepping back a bit, I think I agree with you. I should not have included that sentence. Obviously I have strong feelings about the arguments made in this thread, but I shouldn’t make speculations beyond the arguments themselves.
I also agree that there could be underlying issues which can be difficult to articulate. However, this could go either way, it’s not husband or wife specific.
Absolutely, and especially in cases of abuse or domestic violence, where men frequently do not speak up because of embarrassment, fear of not being believed, or because the support systems out there (e.g., shelters, hotlines) are not geared towards men. Misandry is just as wrong as misogyny, and both are prevalent in secular American culture.
