Stop Violence Against Women aggregated legal writings and produced a list of determining factors for the primary aggressor. Below is a portion of the list:
⁃ The height and weight of the parties
⁃ Which party has the potential to seriously injure the other party
⁃ Whether a party has a fearful demeanor
⁃ Whether a party has a controlling demeanor
So, pretty much 'If you're a man'....

Have you seen this comic floating around lately? "The Friend-Zoner vs. Nice Guy"
http://imgur.c
Well, to be frank, it's pretty retarded, and honestly fills out the stereotypical Tumblr attitude. Thankfully, a kind and understanding soul over at Reddit offered a rebuttal.
"The Friendzoner vs The Nice Guy is a cheesy web-comic strip that has been circulating around the internet for at least a year if not longer. Sketched by a feminist blogger on Tumblr, it portrays a nice guy being friend-zoned by a girl he had strong feelings for and a close friendship with. He flips out, presumably because he has faced this situation many times before, like a lot of guys have, and the whole thing blows out of proportion as they don comic book superhero spandex and duke it out with physical violence and insults being thrown at each other. In the end she wins and literally cuts him off as a friend because she feels like she doesn't deserve him.
Due to the way the comic has been written out (with the Friendzoner winning the bout, the Really Nice Guy having nothing to combat her words with, and the Friendzoner having the last say); it implies that any man who reacts badly to rejection is an asshole, not really a friend and is a bit rape-y in their intentions. However, this entirely misses the male argument of the whole friendzone debate.
1) Society's view of relationships and how they form may not tell the full picture:
Why did the nice guy pursue this woman? Why did he see his closeness to her - the fact she'd often come to him to talk about her problems whether it was her breakup, complaining about boyfriends or maybe (the last point is a mostly-baseles
Various forms of media have taught us that romantic feelings and relationships start from moments of emotional intimacy whether that is helping somebody in distress, becoming emotionally close in friendship, or both.
I'll give many examples of anime, film and television series that have featured this in some way, shape or form. Beauty And The Beast, Aladdin, Pokémon, Suzuka, Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, One Tree Hill, The O.C., There's Something About Mary, Love Actually, Hitch, The Waterboy, Sonic The Hedgehog, Back To The Future, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Cardcaptor Sakura, Tsubasa: Reservoir Chronicles, Fairy Tail, Dragon Ball, Shaman King, Chobits, Love Hina, Tenchi Muyo, Harry Potter, Shrek, and many others.
It is even the central theme of a book called South of the Border, West of the Sun by Haruki Murakami in which the protagonist has a close female friend in the form of Shinamoto and bonds with her because he was asked to help her at school over her leg condition. Despite being really close friends, they drift apart when attending separate high schools and he only meets her again once successfully running a chain of bars in Tokyo and happily married; forcing him to make the tough choice of whether to cheat on his wife or not.
Then there's many examples in video-games...
Saria from Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time is a huge example. She is the only one to really befriend Link after he was left to the Kokiri as an orphan. As such, she develops a crush, much to the jealousy of Milo, the Kokiri village chief. This is not only implied through her friendly interactions and genuine joy to see him, but by her conversation with him when he leaves Kokiri Forest. It is later confirmed by Milo after Link rescues her from the Forest Temple.
As for other games with romantic elements that revolve around this? Tony Hawk's American Wasteland, Phantasy Star Universe, Second Sight, Prince of Persia, Final Fantasy IX, the Mario series, Castle of Illusion, Persona 4, The Sims, Tales of Symphonia and dare I say it... virtually any romantic visual novel or dating sim. You get the idea.
I'm not calling any of this misleading. But considering how romance is very-well present in the entertainment industry, can you blame men for wanting this to be a greater reality than it actually is?
2) The Friendzoner is a bona fide bitch:
As ridiculous as this seems to argue because of course there's going to be fighting; they are portrayed as superheroes, let's list some facts about what the Friendzoner did:
She provoked him by taunting him about being friend-zoned because he dared express his dismay at being rejected, presumably for the umpteenth time. Whether she did this sarcastically, as a form of exaggeration or because she's sick of hearing the friend-zone argument thrown around once again herself; it doesn't matter. She shouldn't have escalated the issue and provoked an even angrier response from him.
She assaults him. It is unclear who lands the first hit here. While it looks like she was assaulted first from what looks like her parrying a hit with her arm and circular lines of motion around his arm, the nice guy's posture in this panel doesn't seem to indicate that he actually made a swing for her and if he did, it was in the worst way possible. Rather, he is stood, tensed up, yelling his point to her. But then again, maybe it is useless to argue this because this is merely used as a metaphor to illustrate their shouting-match
She refers to herself as a bitch. While this was most likely sarcastic and to parody how women like her are portrayed, it still raises a valid point due to how she is actually acting.
She accuses him of being an asshole and verbally mauls him apart out of disgust that he was even interested in her in the first place.
She kicked him in the head while he was down. Again, this could just be a metaphor but if literal, that is a highly dangerous situation that could have caused at least ABH (he also caused it too if you look at the bruise he made by punching her in the face but only in retaliation to being kicked in the face.) Somebody I knew from school died after attempting to break up a drunken argument, being punched to the ground then repeatedly kicked in the head like a football. The guy who did it is in jail for murder.
She spins every argument against him. More on that further below in Point #3.
She ends her friendship with him. More on that further below in Points #3 and #4
3) Etiquette is improperly viewed as a manipulative sexual strategy:
"What about that time you got wasted at a party!? Any other guy would have taken advantage. But I drove you home safely instead!"
"You don't get fucking brownie points for not raping me!"
So it is wrong to be a nice guy all of a sudden? This is certainly what The Friendzoner is implying.
When we are taught from the point of childhood to be nice, morally respectable and law abiding citizens else face punishment whether by our parents, our teachers, our supervisors, the police, etc. When we get rewarded for doing nice things in many different ways, is it not surprising that men have made this assumption that being nice and befriending a girl is the best way to eventually form a romantic relationship?
When you are a child, you better obey your parents and stay out of trouble or else you'll probably get grounded or worse. Likewise, if you do really well at school, you'll likely get rewarded through them buying you something nice or through them taking you somewhere nice.
The same goes in schools. Good behavior is rewarded because they act as an incentive while bad behavior is punished because punishments act as a deterrent.
It similarly goes for law enforcement. Criminals are punished and sentences are often seen as a punishment. While some systems focus more on rehabilitation
How does this link back to relationships? Simple, romantic relationships are often seen as much stronger, more significant friendships where a degree of physical and emotional intimacy are involved. Being an asshole and doing things like cheating generally lead to getting dumped.
And what about being rewarded? Look at Valentine's Day, one of the tackiest, most over-commercia
Technically, aren't men manipulative assholes for buying women romantic presents in the same way that some men try to woo women by treating them like close friends and putting them on pedestals? Oh wait, they get a free pass because people who buy valentines day presents tend to be attractive, already in relationships and are buying material presents instead of just being nice.
And single people without a partner on valentines day? Like marketing departments seem to imply by pretending they don't exist, they can fuck off!
4) The Friendzoner heavily downplays the significance of her friendship with the Nice Guy:
When you broke up with that douche! I was always there when you wanted to talk!
I thought that was because we were - I don't know, actually friends!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Let's cut the crap for a second. If you confide your desires for a nice guy and your complaints over your boyfriend being a complete dickbag to a guy-friend of yours; is it not surprising when he'll interpret that as interest in himself, especially considering how much she likely emphasized it? In fact, I'm pretty sure lines like "I wish there were more men like you" or "I wish I could find a guy like you" came up. I mean, those are some pretty big compliments and you don't just say that stuff for no reason.
Sharing stuff like that isn't what you do with 'just a friend.' That's at least close-friend level, if not future-boyfrie
This stuff certainly came up about 80%+ of the time I was friend-zoned by a close female friend who I later developed feelings for. In fact, especially when they made compliments about me and my personality, I felt like I was being led on and for good reason. But of course if I express that, I'll be called the asshole.
Sorry that my friendship is a crappy consolation prize!
That is not the point. The man is clearly feeling discontented because he had his heart broken yet again. The hypocrisy that people would shower a girl with their sympathies (whether in film, television or in real life) should they be rejected by a guy while if a guy did it, they'd be seen as losers, manipulative assholes or even sexual pests in some extreme examples, is mindboggling.
Do you even know what friend-zoning is, douchelord?
What you just did to me.
Sure, but what assholes like you actually mean when you say you've been friendzoned is "This bitch won't let me put my dick in her even though I treated her like a human being."
Friend-zoning is when somebody shoots down your romantic advances and declares you only a friend, likely out of a lack of sexual attraction. It's not gender-exclusi
And she downplays his generosity and friendly nature as 'treating her like a human being'? Technically any action from good to bad to downright despicable counts as treating her like a human being. So no, being treated like a human being is a bad term.
5) The desire for nice men is actually an oxymoron:
Well, I don't fucking care. When you girls are bitching and moaning about how you just wanna find a nice guy, I won't feel sorry for you. They're all in the friend zone where you left them!
This is a very valid point. Why should we continue to be close to women when that is clearly misinterpreted as nothing but friendship and not what women look for in a guy?
Why is this guy speaking so much truth?
That is because the desire for nice men is an oxymoron, a statement that contradicts what women appear to really be attracted to. Confidence, status, physical attractiveness and material possessions. This has been developed through millions and millions of years of evolution. Attractiveness helps determine a mate which can produce healthier offspring, confidence makes up part of what a male should be and is often a trait picked up by women that makes them initially attracted to jerks (as many of them display confidence), material wealth is dictated both by Western consumerist society and evolution and status is very important too as humans are social animals."

About gender
Male and female isn't defined by genitals, it's defined by gametes. Males produce sperm, females produce eggs.
Suck on that Social Justice tumblrfags.
"In the Beginning, the Earth was perfect in its Form. Forged from powder, brass, and empty magazines, bullets grew from the scorched, burnished turf like grass, and trees made of cannon and shell sprung branches of rifles, from which leaves of pistols swayed when the carbonic air blew in bursts of muzzle wind. Rivers of lubricant oil flowed underground, surging through explosions of white phosphorus and depleted uranium. Clouds of CS and mustard gas drifted through the sky, occasionally raining down upon the metallic creatures whose bodies were crafted from gas blocks, barrels and springs held together with rails, whose movements were powered by the constant detonation of cartridges loaded into their sections of their form. There was fire, and light, and heat, and choking death, and from these Man was formed. As it was in the Beginning, so shall it be in the End."
"Life was brought upon the earth from the providence of the Stars, and where a Star fell to earth, life began as a shadow in the light and flame. Alone, It bore unto itself two children, who bore children of their own, and they found to their liking the warmth of the fire and the purity of the light. The shadow took forms, each child finding itself, and seeking again the light and warmth of the Star from which they came. From this shadow were begot the life of the world, born again and again, into the burning crucible, forged into hard, living forms by the dangers of this world. No longer mere shadows, they hungered as beasts and grew fangs and claws to rend their prey. Born again and again, each forbearer begot grander children, or they were broken upon the anvil of this world. From these came Man; and he saw beyond this cycle, his eyes gazing toward the light, seeking the Truth of the Stars. It was not Man who first saw this path; for all creatures strive toward it blindly, hunting, seeking, their every fiber drawn towards this light, but it was Man who first strode upon the path with his intent in mind. And so he was begotten with children and given dominion across the land, and from the hands of Men were borne great works, expressions of their quest to seek the Truth, to seek perfection."
"Man howled into the fire of this world; casting himself against every land, every danger, his will indomitable, unbroken by ice, nor fire, nor mountain, nor sea; and he was pleased. But then, a child of Man claimed answers; claimed to have sought and found the Truth. His words; falsehoods spoken out of delusion or deceit, bore a seed of doubt within Mankind; as soon many others spoke of Truths, of answers. And Man bore anger against Man, his hands raised, his weapons drawn for war. The slaughter killed many, and the cycle of war, of deceit and doubt, and of death brought Man again to the level of mere beasts, casting them away from the path towards Truth, towards the Star from whence he came."
"It is this cycle that must be broken, for a Man to be free. And a Man is only free when he sheds the lies of others, when he may bring to himself the means of his own life, and protect it from those who would take it; be they beast, or Man. It is this that must be held above all else, not as a Truth, but as the surest way to seek it upon firm ground, for to seek the Truth is the mission of every child of Man; not to find it, or to keep it, or to hold it, but to tread upon the path which leads us ever closer towards it. And in this quest, every child of Man must ready himself to protect his journey, and the journey of others, with words, with their will, and with the weapons of war. For to stand as a temple, a paragon of the path to Truth and Light is the truest form of virtue; not to kill for the sake of it, but to instead protect in Its Name. To be as a temple to the path to Truth, one must make their body and mind ready for this journey every day. The body must be swift and supple, great in its strength and keen in the use of the weapons of war. The mind must be equally strong, yet open and seeking; always looking for the untraveled, the unspoken, the unknown; for it is within these that the path towards the Truth most often lies."
"And the Truth, the Star, now hath founds Itself in our hands, as we were once in Its hands. Nex Alea, the Truth, the Star, the Murdercube, Gunfather, Allslayer, Godbreaker, Monolith, Apedemak, Mixcoatl, Belatucadros, Guan Yu, Horus, Ares, Kali, Belus, Ullr, Lua. Doubtless, it has gone by many names, most of which have been lost to the ages. It is a universal constant, materializing at some point in every society’s history, vanishing only when every living creature on Its host world had ceased to exist. It demands that violence occur, without heed to reason, scale or consequence. It is never appeased, and cannot be destroyed. Nex Alea is a culmination of all human conflict, strife and warfare that has ever occurred or ever will occur. It tells stories of death, murder and vicious fighting, of honor and chivalry, of treason and betrayal. Of Humanity. It does not require worship, It does not want your adulation."
"The true form of Nex Alea is a gigantic cube composed of all the weapons of Man, everything from the first club to the most recently loaded round of ammunition; all these are represented in the Monolith. The combined fleets of the world lay embedded in titanic seas of ammunition, bombs, and rifles, which are interspersed by tanks, aircraft, even the nuclear warheads of the world are there. Anything that was ever used or created to do harm and make war is there, recorded in the monolithic prismatic bulk. If one were to enter into Nex Alea, through the thousands of irregular fissures and grottos on Its sides, they would find a labyrinth of progressively older and older weapons the further in they explored, and the mind-heat of all the accumulated hate of Man would grow hotter and hotter as the walls pressed in, festooned with all the blades and armors of history. The center of the core is composed of crude spears and clubs that radiate malice and fury, and no Man has seen deeper. It is said that the very center is a stone, perhaps the one Cain used to crush the skull of Abel, but whatever it is it kicked off a millions of years of violence and is the seed of the Allslayer."
"Men do not design weapons. The Monolith, lacking the physical capability to create them Itself, projects Its will into Its Chosen, the Prophets whose holy creations allow the Monolith’s intentions to propagate through the violence of Men. These Prophets are true Followers, the Cube’s humble subjects; the Unseen Hands of the Allslayer. They dream deeply of smoke and steel, ash and sword. They are the Hands of the Monolith, the Keepers of Truth. They, the Cube’s faithful, speak the Truth. The Monolith speaks not of the why’s, the who’s, or even the when’s. These things are unknowable. The Cube speaks the Great Truth, that in Man there is still a spark of the Star from whence he came. The Cube brings us the Truth, and leaves it to us to accept it and be saved, or discard it and be relegated to destruction by the very fire and light that gave us life."
"The Murdercube is not a religion. It cannot be defined or described in Its entirety, not without your soul as Its price. It is most accurately termed as the transference of divine lethal knowledge. To those who have successfully gleaned information from the Cube, horrible visions of unimaginable violence have also accompanied the knowledge. When contracting with the Cube, one gambles with his mental fortitude; for Nex Alea, with all Its eternal power, is far mightier than thee, O Mortal. If It deems thee unworthy, Nex Alea shall sweep thee aside like so much waving grass before the scythe, rending thy sanity unto dust. Nex Alea, the Cube of Truth, the Eternal Death-Bringer, is all that has been, and will be. It is all. It is. It IS."
"Have you listened to the whispers, Mortal? Does the Truth ring out to thee yet? For Mankind to make war, It must possess the means to do so. Therefore, the banning or confiscation of weapons is a denial of the nature of Man, a pathetic attempt to avert the violence innate to Mankind, an insult to the Sacred Creed of the Murdercube. The banishment of weapons is an instrument of the weak to subvert the strong, and such an unnatural usurpation cannot be abided by those who have heard the Truth of the Monolith.
And so we honor the Cube through our actions, keeping our minds, bodies, and blades sharp. We make or buy instruments of War, with which we complete the sanctifying rituals which strengthen the Cube. We maintain and honor our weapons, keeping their blades sharp and their barrels oiled. Our weapons are gifts, the children of Nex Alea, and as such, deserve the utmost respect. We enable and encourage others to take up arms, training them in the use and maintenance of their weapons, to glorify and empower Nex Alea with the strength of Man’s warrior spirit."
And finally, we pray, as we first prayed to our Maker, the Star of War, the Cube of Death:
War is the way of Man.
Man is the means of War.
You allow us War.
Our worship is our readiness.
It is proper to adhere to our nature,
Aggression is natural,
We are meant to be aggressive.
Through war we are purified,
Through slaughter we are enlightened,
I cast thee, Nex Alea,
May fortune find strength in me,
So that my weaknesses be absolved.
Saluto Nex Alea."

"Male disposability.
Throughout all of history women have been protected and cherished, cared for, prized and glorified. Men have been killed, tortured, sent to war, etc.
It has long been considered wrong to fight a woman, wrong to make them go to war.
Their value was based on their ability to reproduce. If 100,000 men died, it wouldn't matter if there were women and just a few dozen men were still around to create the next generation.
This practise still exists today. Men are homeless, fuck them. Women are homeless, God help us we must save them! Men and women on a sinking ship; women and children saved first. Men must not hit women (because they're weaker?) but strong men hitting weaker men is ok (logic?).
Women are given a place in society automatically because they are valued intrinsically, whereas men have to earn their place with their deeds, skills, etc. Men do not oppress women, they have a natural instinct to protect and benefit them.
Women are given much lesser punishments than men for the same crimes across a range of offences. Especially violent and sex related crimes.
Men and women ARE fundamentally different and the cross over between skills and abilities is actually fairly small. Men are significantly stronger than women, their intelligence is significantly more reliable than women's (because hormones mostly). They typically have much better analytical skills.
Women have a much greater ability to raise children, have typically better fine detail hand-eye co-ordination and a bunch of other stuff.
Expecting women and men to be treated even equally is ridiculous. Neither should be mistreated because of their gender but there are some things, like men need more food, that are simple facts. If food is short and is rationed equally, men suffer more than women. There are plenty of other examples.
Feminism has a solid premise that no woman should be mistreated because she's a woman, but you can't logically argue for that without arguing the same for men."

Somebody posted this blindingly stupid propaganda:
Day 1: mommy, I am only 5 inches long but already have my organs. Your heart beating is my favorite lullaby.
Day 2: mommy I'm a girl! I hope that makes you happy mommy. I like it when you're happy. When you're sad, I'm sad too. Stop crying mommy!
Day 3: mommy, I got my hair today. It's very short and fine, but there will be a lot of it. I learned to kick, too.
Day 4: mommy, I have hand now, and I can't wait to see yours and hold you too
Day 5: mommy, you went to the doctors today. What's abortion?
Day 6: mommy, why are we with the doctor again? I don't like him he seems cold and heartless. MOMMY, SOMETHING IS INTRUDING MY HOME! IT BURNS MOMMY! NOOOOO...
Day 7: Mommy, I'm alright, I'm in Jesus' arms. He is holding me. He told me what abortion is. Why didn't you want me mommy?
REPOST IF YOU HATE ABORTION
This is the response that was made:
Day 1
Overmind, I am only 8 feet long, but I have all my organs. I love the sound of your drones. Every time I hear them, I wave my claws and legs. The sound of the hatchery's heart beat is my favorite lullaby.
Day 2
Overmind, today I learned how to slash my claws. If you could see me, you could definitely tell that I am a Zerg. I'm not big enough to survive outside my home though. It is so nice and warm in here.
Day 3
You know what Overmind, I'm a Zergling!! I hope that makes you happy. I always want you to be happy. I don't like it when you cry. You sound so sad. It makes me sad too, and I cry with you even though you can't hear me.
Day 4
Overmind, my scales are starting to grow. they are short and fine, but I will have a lot of them. I spend a lot of my time exercising. I can turn my head and curl my blades, and stretch my claws and legs. I am becoming quite good at it too.
Day 5
You intercepted a transmission from Tarsonis today. Overmind, they lied to you. They said that I'm not a Zergling. I am a Zergling, Overmind, your Zergling. I think and feel. Overmind, what's extermination?
Day 6
I can hear that marine again. I don't like him. He seems cold and heartless. Something is intruding my home. The marine called it a gauss rifle. Overmind what is it? It burns! Please make him stop! I can't get away from it! Overmind!! HELP me!! No . . .
Day 7
Overmind, I am okay. I still managed to hatch and my brothers and sisters rushed their base. Ke ke ke ke!
So, just an explanation why the first part of the post is tripe;
Day 1 - 7, congratulation
Ugh, so much nonsensical claptrap. Also, unborn and unbaptized babies don't get to see Jesus, they get to spend all their time in Limbo.l

God is said to be omniscient and unchanging. But what are the implications of these characteristic
1) Stupid people cannot learn
God cannot learn because he knows everything.
2) Stupid people won't change their minds
God cannot change his mind because he has a perfect plan. If he changes his mind, his plan would become imperfect.
3) Stupid people cannot make decisions
God can only do what is in his plan and nothing else. All God's decisions are predetermined by his plan.
4) Stupid people can't make plans
God cannot have made his plan because if he had made it, there would have been a time when he didn't know everything so he would not have been omniscient. But God cannot change so he must always have been omniscient. Therefore, the plan must be older than God. Therefore God cannot have created his own plan.
So we have a God that functions like a computer program, doing exactly what he has been told to do—no more and no less with no intelligence required. Is there any point in praying to such a God for help? What do you think?
Of course God is not really stupid because God does not exist. But the men who invented him, now they really were stupid.
I wonder how many millions of people would have lived longer, happier lives if it were not for the invention of the Abrahamic God?

A world that turns when you're in control
Means we're bound to stand on ground that's unshakeable
"Don't say another goddamn word. Up until now, I've been polite. If you say anything else - word one - I will kill myself. And when my tainted spirit finds its destination, I will topple the master of that dark place. From my black throne, I will lash together a machine of bone and blood, and fueled by my hatred for you this fear engine will bore a hole between this world and that one. When it begins, you will hear the sound of children screaming - as though from a great distance. A smoking orb of nothing will grow above your bed, and from it will emerge a thousand starving crows. As I slip through the widening maw in my new form, you will catch only a glimpse of my radiance before you are incinerated. Then, as bubbling tears of pitch stream down my face, my dark work will begin. I will open one of my six mouths, and I will sing the song that ends the Earth."
