PD:
Bup called me “a psycho” unprovoked.
Was she right to do so?
Was it abusive on her part?
Simple “yes” or “no” questions.
You are being evasive because you know the answers:
Bup was wrong to call me names unprovoked.
Bup behaved abusively by calling me names unprovoked. She acted as an
abuser.
Simple.
Now, let’s take your example:
If the wife was not provoked and called the husband a moron.
And the husband beat her in return.
Both of them behaved abusively. They are BOTH abusers.
HE is the WORST abuser, I agree. His reaction was completely disproprtional
and uncalled for.
But that does NOT mean that she is NOT an abuser, too.
His abuse was 8 on a scale of 10.
Her abuse was 2 on a scale of 10.
BUT
She DID commit abuse. No one can deny that. Even in a court of law
provocation is considered a mitigating circumstance.
PD:
So I will use the example again as I mentioned before. Even an abusive
husband cannot claim innocence or fairness after beating his wife to claim
"she started it".
