RE: Men Don't Have A Monopoly On Violence - The Myth Of Female Innocence

in #news6 years ago (edited)

Both sexes are capable of horrific crimes and women can be as nasty as men, but the fact is that you could compile a much longer list of male serial killers. Of course men have started more wars than women through keeping women away from positions of power.

I don't think anyone has said that only men are cruel. As a white male I have had a privileged life although I have been bullied by both girls and black guys as well as white guys when I was young. Generally I don't have to worry about being picked on by the police or having someone force themselves on me sexually. I'm sure most women could tell some stories of the latter.

I think a lot of fuss has been made over this ad. What's so wrong with suggesting that people could be nicer to each other? In two minutes you can't cover everything. Still, it might be nice if they did an equivalent one showing women being nasty to other women as that happens all the time too. I see the other video shows that and it's also a problem that should be talked about.

It's interesting that the video gets twice as many dislikes as likes, but then there has been an organised campaign against it by certain groups. I think it makes some valid points that go against what is accepted as normal in a lot of areas of our societies.

BTW I don't use Gillette razors as I have an electric shaver :)
