Dr phil telling a male victim of domestic abuse not to hit his girlfriend back for abusing him because she's a woman (a woman who has been in military and knows how to fight)

The fact that the audience laughs when he is explaining the abuse allegations and then says "oh you think it's funny" to the guy who is probably just humiliated and awkward having people laugh at his abuse story and be completely invalidated. I'm pretty sure laughter is normal when uncomfortable, especially in social situations. This pissed me off. I have always said that if a man is completely defending himself, I see no issue with hitting a woman back. And feminists and women whine whenever men say "so if we are equal I have the right to defend myself?" And say "see? Men are violent, just waiting for the day they can beat women" without realizing those are probably men who have been abused and couldn't do shit about it. This infuriates me. I've had guy friends who were in abusive relationships and got told to pretty much man up if they told anyone but of course "manning up" would be abuse. I used to say "well men are stronger(but not even in all cases, most men would just be stronger than me, personally) so maybe they should just subdue her and don't have to hit" but honestly, fuck that. If ANYBODY wants to start throwing punches or being physically violent, they have it coming and women who abuse men and expect him not to do anything need to stop hiding behind their gender. Honestly, I have been in an abusive relationship. I'm a woman. I'm also straight so the person I was with was a guy. Yeah, being abusive is super fucking shitty, no matter who you are and nobody should ever hit anyone, but I feel like if the genders were reversed, I would have ended up a special kind of fucked up in the head since most cases where with abusive women that I've heard about they also taunt them and mock how they can't do anything and those women are right. Those men can't do shit. Women have gone to extreme lengths to defend themselves and they get called strong. Sometimes that might be fair to say but other times it's totally overkill. But that doesn't matter. There are also hotlines for domestic abuse that essentially view it "woman:victim, man:abuser" and shelters for abused women. Not to mention it is openly viewed as morally wrong. I've seen women in real life talk about stories where women were violent to men for no reason and be like "yassss, woman power" so honestly, fuck Dr. Phil.
