Better to be beaten to a pulp and screamed at and starved every day than to live with a rapist.
And this is the "logic" that courts are using? Is that what you're saying?
I don't work in the court system. I have friends who work as social workers and advocates. They tell me that the court system hears stories of sexual abuse on a daily basis. ("I wasn't raping him, your honor, I just fell on top of him. When we were both naked. I had an erection, these things happen.") I'm not saying it's the only logic, I'm saying that it factors in.
The minute a woman points this out, guys get angry and defensive. They think we're calling them monsters. No. But the monsters are out there. And it's male voices that need to be fighting against domestic violence and rape.
I'm not saying there aren't good fathers. I know quite a few. When our society changes, and the courts don't see the 1/3 of children as rape victims, the fathers will have a more equal chance in the courts.
