I know exactly what you mean.

I feel less bad about it, at least less bad for the man. Think about it. You have been socialized, by men, to consider women of no threat to a man.
Thee feeling you have are a symptom of "The Patriarchy" (scare quotes because I don't like the term, but it is the best word of the idea I'm suggesting) and just another bit of sexist bullshit against us.

Wait, so... you're seriously saying that looking down on male abuse victims is okay? Because when you look down on them for being abused, you're really the one who's suffering from sexism? Please tell me I'm misreading you.

DA

yeah no, that's not what they were saying at all.

they were basically saying that the view that abuse against men is "amusing" is wrong. and further, that that viewpoint is a result of wider societal sexism (that views women as weak, posing no threats against men). so when people see men being abused, the victim is viewed with contempt, because they should "man up", "stop being a pussy" etc. and this is NOT a good thing.

does that help clarify?
