This is obviously very upsetting. But I’d also like to know what y’all’s answers would be to the question on this meme. This is not something I advocate for I’m going to be transparent about that, I’ve just noticed things like this a lot on the internet and want to gain some perspective.

    This! Asking “under what circumstances am I allowed to hit women” sounds like you’re itching for it.

    If your only train of thought regarding domestic abuse is “ohh. Does that mean I can hit back now?” then you’re not a victim, you’re just a closeted abuser.

    If your only answer to a public assault is fighting back you’re not concerned with solving the situation, you’re just spoiling for a fight.

    Sure, there are situations where fighting back IS the only viable solution. But jumping to it immediately means we’re not talking about a hypothetical situation - we’re talking about a fantasy of yours.
