    doesn't say what he was wearing but she said she was provoked so it sounds legit.

    Well, that is because men are immune to abuse.../s (rolls eyes on the alpha/beta crowd)

    My favorite part. My mother has been an RN for 50 years. She doesn't know how to use a knife since RNs don't ever use them. That's surgeons.
    Yeah I've never met a nurse that is proficient with a knife because of her position as a nurse.

    Probably aren't many "sources" when it's ignored.

    You can do a quick Google search as easily as I can to show that women and men are treated differently in the justice system.

    Something I have learned is women will support women against men no matter what the circumstances.

    Well, he provoked her

    We all know that if a man inflicted these kinds of injuries on his wife, the sentence would not be suspended. The judge did not treat this as if " a man had inflicted these injuries on a woman", that statement alone betrays the fuckedupness of the thing.

    Him being a man in no way protected him from the injuries, her being a woman in no way stopped her from being capable of inflicting the injuries, the idea that women are so weak that they just cannot inflict any serious injury on a man needs to stop. The idea that a woman should get a lesser sentence because she is just a woman needs to stop. Women are not children.

    Surprised there are only a few people questioning the source, and very little attacking people critical of the sentence. Only 3 pages though, plenty of time.

    Even the Guardian conceded that women get lesser sentences. The Guardian!

    There are several victimization studies putting it at a rough 50% parity.

    I don't think he's saying being an RN gives you Deadpool knife skills or something. He's saying with medical knowledge of the human body that an RN has, they know right where to stick it for maximum damage.

    Horrible story, and the woman should be behind bars.

    But let's be honest, if this were reversed and it was another husband getting away with brutally assaulting his wife, would OP have even bothered to post it?

    Of course not.

    AFAIK the government doesn't fund it, its funded through donations.

    Impossible to know because that scenario wouldn't happen.

    We had 627 women's shelters as of 2014. I think a lot of that has to do with men being unwilling to seek out help for these kinds of situations though.

    Wouldn't be the first time someone abusing his/her partner gets away with it... So, what's to be discussed?

    So you're honestly saying no man anywhere has ever gotten away with beating his wife?

    Not legally let off the hook by the court systems after blinding and mutilating their spouse in the time that Xarim has been posting on these forums.
