"Uplift" means to treat like expensive property, not equal human beings. You may not personally view it now that way, but in antiquity that was the social norm. Females BACK THEN were PROPERTY, not human beings.
Women in America have had a longer history bucking this bullshit, although you wouldn't know it with our current news headlines.
Skip the holy book. Skip any holy book for that matter.
Females are EQUAL TO MEN. You don't beat them for the same reason two men need to learn to settle their differences without violence. BECAUSE THEY ARE HUMANS.
Women ARE capable of leading, in politics and even being the breadwinner of the family. Women do not need men telling them what to do or how to behave based on the patriarchal mythology of antiquity.
The reason women in Saudi Arabia are getting assaulted for driving now is the same fucking religious bullshit white Christian men used for excuses for beating up Susan B Anthony for fighting for women's right to vote here.
I beat men who beat me without any shame.
Why would a woman cheat the same treatment? My bad is to inflict more damage on her than what she did to me, but if she is really equal, then she should also be punished like a man.
Yea and that is the fucking problem.
You like far too many men in the world don't get it.
Self defense does not need a religious excuse. And one man can be smaller than another man too.
And as far as punishing infidelity using religion, that is bullshit too. The sex is not the issue, the LYING IS. Nobody likes to be lied to. In the west when someone "cheats" on their spouse, we don't allow abuse or murder as an excuse. We can and do sue them in civil court sure, that is what divorce courts do.
Outside of sex, I have been myself beaten up by females. Not in relationships mind you, just growing up running into physically stronger females. But I have been also beaten up by far more bigger bully boys/men.
(EDIT) I actually was physically abused by a former girlfriend a long time ago too. She used to hit me when she thought I was flirting with other females. I never did, but even if I was, her only civil response should have been, "If you don't stop doing that, I will leave you." Not hitting me. Jealousy is not love, much less physical abuse.
If a relationship is not working, the best thing to do is walk away, not get revenge.
The key even between men, when you get offended is to respond with words only, or walk away.
Far too much of humanity is quicker to violence than we are to thinking.
Like I said, fuck gender roles, fuck religion. Civility is harder for most humans than violence is.
