who back up bullying with occasional use of their fists. They view such men as "strong."

Yeah, I know. However, I've met a few of them.

It may fit a profile. People who accept authoritarian, abusive types are more likely to be influenced by hate tv/radio.

Women can be misogynistic because it's what they have learned in this culture.

Some women are just Assholes. Some women support him and turn a blind eye to his pussy complications because he hates the same people (i.e. the brown ones, the non-Christians, the poor, etc) that they hate.

Many of these women come from evangelical Christian backgrounds. They are taught that women are responsible for the downfall of men. They learn that their bodies are sinful and that they alone are responsible for the temptation of men. It is the fault of women if man sins. They are told they must submit. A good Christian woman submits her mind and body.

Warning, don't watch with breakable items in the room...



What blows my mind is the "Do think is is honest?" when fact checking shows that 70% or more of the time, he is lying.
