I cannot believe that people are trying to make excuses for what is happening in these pictures.. He's trying to demonstrate something on her. Feeling her glands. Pulling a stray hair from her nose.. Wtaf.
She doesn't seem to be screaming for help. Really?
She should have hit him back?
Some of you really, really have no idea. You really think it is that easy to walk away from a DV relationship? Then why do millions of people live in violent relationships? Why, because of dv are there daily deaths? Do you think that these victims enjoy the sheer terror of their daily existence. Don't be so ridiculous.
It is because of conditioning. Victims are told all the time that it's their fault. When the abuser appologises, espeically in the eary days, its with the whole sorry babe, I didn't mean to hurt you. It's just I get so frustrated with x,y and z (something the victim has done). I will try harder next time to control myself. The abuser will behave themselves for a few days, and then boom, the circle has started again.
The victims I know, all come from abusive childhoods as well. Abuse is sadly all they know. They associate abuse for love. When someone is nice and caring it is treated as rejection. It is hard to get out of the relationship becuase they don't see it as wrong.
But yes lets blaim the victims. Lets ignore what we see in front of us. Lets try and rationalise it for something that it isn't. Let's say its him being loving and caring. Because this is what loving and caring people do... If this is honestly what some of you think, then start to take a look at your relationships. How many times are you blaimed for another persons anger. How many times are you told how to behave. The answer should be none.
