Yet another young woman attacked by a male. When will it end?

So your basically saying it's ok for some women to blame all men when they say "men", when some people do this it's disgraceful and annoying and should never be tolerated.

I was talking to my brother the other night & he was telling that one of his young girls came home from school & said one of her classmates had told the teacher to fu*ck off, I said what did the teacher do, he said she just turned round & walked away.

Now I'm in my sixties & I'm sure other posters of this age will agree, that if they had said that to a teacher when they were at school, the consequences would have been painful to say the least. There is always a minority of kids that you can't debate & reason with & unfortunately , this group have had no discipline in the home or at school. They have no respect for anyone or anything, the answer in my opinion lies in my previous post.

Looking at the OP's posts on the likes of the Irish defence forces, they're a bloke.

Call me old fashioned but ladies don't talk like that.

Maybe that is it, that it was a minor. Fair point.

Yes, it is always dangerous (and sometimes surprising) to guess who is a man or woman, or other. I would not be so quick to assume OP is a woman either.

I actually don't agree that the most aggressive posting comes from posters who you might guess to be female. It might just be pitched to look that way which is just another way of generating hysteria and making women look unreasonable and shutting down real discussion which is disappointing.

I do think its very relevant.

Of course men can support women's viewpoints and vice versa, but it is also important that real women's voices are heard, and that's not coming across here unfortunately. Anyway, people can make up their own minds on it.

Yeah you've just described a sociopath/pyschopath

And we know that all men aren't sociopathic and/or psychopathic? Right!?

I'm just saying its possible. we don't know how these twisted minds work.

But posters don't actually focus on male violence now do they? No, they focus on the male attacking female aspect, which, terrible as it is, is usually completely taken out of context, and turned into men persecuting women.

It's a very easy argument to assess, just compare the men on women violence statistics, to the men on men violence statistics, then ask yourself should this be about men on women violence, or men on men violence, or just violence?

On boards it tends to be anyone who self identifies as a woman but isn't a women per say (man)

I'd have to disagree that "training" would have any impact. There's types of individuals that usually are inflicting violence on others, those with mental issues, those who act out violently when under the influence, those of young age who act out violently within a social group, and those with emotional issue who themselves have likely been abused themselves.

The root of the problem lies within the creating of such types in society, so what can be done? Better mental health care, more emphasis on the prevention of child abuse, increased awareness of alcoholism, have no idea what to do with younger individuals and how to prevent them from acting out in a social group, that one seems to be thoroughly ingrained which can make even the most placid character turn violent.

Bottom line, you want to prevent violence then change society.
