you’re choosing to use that to invalidate other people who go through that? Wow.
Wrong - And knock off the pearl-clutching. I’m literally the one who just said that the whole “Oppression Olympics” mentality is toxic and needs to go.
Don’t misconstrue my message. This is not a zero-sum game. We can address the issues of both genders at once, and there’s nothing “all lives matter-ish” about saying that.
I’m starting to get the idea that you aren’t here to speak in good faith. If you’re just here because you want to win an internet argument for “your side”, go elsewhere for that.
I’m not here in good faith? Bro you entered this thread with a whataboutism, and everyone here agrees that what you went through is horrible and should never happen, but it appears to some of us as though you’re operating with the intent of conceptually separating domestic abuse and gender from each other, which is unhelpful because it’s usually built in no small part upon gendered dynamics. Jesus fuck
Oh? Because I’ve experienced domestic violence at the hands of a woman.
Are you telling me that my life does not matter?
No, but weaponising that fact to shut down discussions about gender issues is a shit thing to do.
Like yeah, that’s terrible, and you’re choosing to use that to invalidate other people who go through that? Wow.

No. You aren’t. And your snippy little attitude problem, along with you misconstruing everything I say, is proof of that.
I will take your angry little diatribe as you conceding the argument, and volunteering to be on my block list.
Not cool. Do better.
