Pond's Domestic Violence

[tartarcreamxx]

It's not really feminism people are complaining about, I'm a female myself and the fact that it never shows women as the abusers annoys me! and the reason for that isn't because I'm some kind of anti-feminist that's sexist to her own gender, it's because it's creating cliche's, It's making men look like they're all big bad violent a**holes and it's making women look like they're all innocent damsel in distresses neither of which is true, the video's should show both women AND men getting abused!

[bluemountain555]

Try to marry nerdy men for a change.

don't join the team if you can't take a hit.

[MrSpemat]

most cases of domestic assault are mutual and rarely manifests itself in this pattern... therefore, it is 2 crazy fucks beating on each other for the most part and maybe, they belong together since they can't keep their hands off one another... just saying.

[GTCism]

Here we go again, another ad that depicts women as the victim of domestic violence and never the abuser, it is so perverted to be at this. Women, like MEN and CHILDREN are victims but like men, they are abusers too, please potray the truth!

Only saving grace in this ad, it depicts Muslim or Arabic background women, unfortunatly the Muslim world views women as property and beating them is encourged. That is one sick world...

[Ocean3589]

@GTCism Why do stupid ass men have to make everything about themselves? A man cannot be abused by a woman because they can easily fight off the woman. There are lots of things women can do, but most women cannot physically abuse a grown man and that's the truth accept it. Aren't men the ones who want to be more dominant ? well you can't be dominant and a victim at the same time.

[LoewenPforte]

@Ocean3589 Yeah .... maybe you should go out more often and accept the fact that not every woman is made of plastic and many men CANNOT fight back. It's very ignorant to say a man cannot be abused by a woman. Men want to be dominant? Is this really what you are thinking? Prejudices, anyone?

To make it very simple, what would be SO VERY BAD, or why would it be SO EFFIN' WRONG to have one ad where there is a male victim and a female perpetrator? Just one lousy ad, where is the problem?

[tranurse]

@Ocean3589 some men are abused by their wives/girlfriends. no doubt about it. however, generally a woman abused by a man is hurt much worse than the other way around. it's just a matter of physics.

[JayneMariefromDet]

I really like this video - the message & the way they did it. Still, one thing bothers me. This, like most ads, excluded the face of a Black woman. I know it's not about race, but Black women often take upon themselves the label "Strong Black Woman" & are often label of "Angry Black Woman" from others. This is a HUGE problem because few people believe Black women can be abused while others think we started it. Statistically poverty lends itself to abuse as does pressure of fewer mate choices...

[JayneMariefromDet]

This makes it even more shameful for black women because there's no room for weak black women in her culture. BUT victims aren't weak. I'd love to see an ad that adds a "strong Black woman" not just for Black women's sake but so people worldwide can see that this can happen to ANY type of women - there is no stereotypical victim; just classic perpetrators. CHECK OUT VIDEO REPLY & LISTEN as Outspoken radio personality interviews Survivor BG Harris & gains victory over shame of her own past abuse!

[maipai101]

@JayneMariefromDet It's an INDIAN COMMERCIAL!

[BrendanIsCool]

bitches should be more careful

[stauffer301]

Lets see how the abusers like it if we beat the living hell out of them. do what they do to their victums. lets see how they can get them selves out of it. the best place for a loser abuser is behind bars. Let the jail birds in cell block c pass them around like a carton of ciggies..................

[tallerta]

Stop the domestic violence.Don't allow it.

We have so many programs by help the victim s.

Ask about Safe Space or FCADV.They are helping to victim of Domestic Violence

[3pinkpolkadots]

Everyone knows that in terms of physical strength, women are inferior to men but they are equal in all other ways. They dont deserve anything less and you're completely disillusioned if you think that this video is just another way to make men look bad. True, domestic violence effects both genders and I'm not saying males should suffer in silence, but look at the statistics.

[thespian75]

These women really need to start minding their men a little better. They'd probably have fewer accidents.

[Scampergirl]

@thespian75 Oh...yet another mysoginist....your attitude is why thousands of women die each year at the hands of mentally fucked up men...

[thespian75]

@Scampergirl Oh my goodness no. A man who resorts to murder is admitting that he's failed as a husband, completely incapable of instilling proper discipline. I take your point. It's possible that some of these marks and bruises are the result of husbands who don't know how to employ effective, consistent corrective measures.

[Scampergirl]

@thespian75 I know this is very hard for your small, tiny brain to accept, but women are not DOMESTIC ANIMALS for you to control.  They are human beings with every right to lead their life as they choose...not under mentally and emotionally abusive men with twisted ideas of women's roles in this world.

[thespian75]

@Scampergirl I'm sorry you've never found a man able or willing to discipline you properly. I hope someday you will. The first time you are broken completely to tears it will change your life.

[Scampergirl]

@thespian75 And I'm sorry you've never had your sorry, abusive ass beaten until you scream for mercy.....then maybe you will learn what it means to be a REAL man.

[thespian75]

@Scampergirl I'm man enough to keep my house in order, and if you weren't a scared little girl hiding behind the internet I'd slap the sassmouth right out of you.

[Scampergirl]

@thespian75 You certainly use the term "man" in the loosest term possible. Because no REAL man I know beats their women into submission under the erroneous idea they are "keeping their house in order? And speaking of "scared", no person is more scared than someone who hides their "I want to crawl into a corner and suck my thumb" , than someone who uses violence against those unable to defend themselves..  You're nothing but a pathetic , coward!

[thespian75]

@Scampergirl TL:DR Busy playing Rapelay.

[stauffer301]

@thespian75

wow what a big man talking shit on the net. Men like you need to get your hands cut off. and get the same treatment like you do to your victums . what a freaking total loser. I am sure you are not man enough and have grapes for balls. what a jack ass.... Your vist needs to be in prison and locked up for life have them place ya in cell block c and ask for bubba he is waiting for ya . Don't drop the soap loser.

[thespian75]

@stauffer301 Hahaha. Get my hands cut off? So I can't type things that hurt your vagina or so I can't smack your little sister around while I teabag her? my vist? What's a vist you illiterate fuck? And no, I've never been arrested. I have a clean prison record, despite the fact that I raped my first victim at 16. She cried so hard to her daddy, but when I explained to the cops that I was just putting her back in line they dropped the case and -apologized-!

Tell your mom I said hi! :)

[ajmccarrell]

I think someone should take the beginning of this commercial and end it with an advertisement for eye makeup. LOL!

[SuperViciousDog]

ponds pussy for pussy

one more men bashing video

[MidniteBacon]

they forgot to say " i didn't make his sandwich"

[littleactressann]

Actually, the focus is on women because the majority of the victims are women. 85% of victims are women, thus the focus on women. Yeah, men are abused as well, but it's not that common. And seriously, is no one sensitive to this type of stuff? Honestly, some of you need to learn some compassion.

[SABTERROR]

funny how only women seem to be the target.

[tonightwefly]

What about when this happens to men? noone gives a fuck

[mikaini]

It's all about the feminist double standard. If you beat a woman, you'll go to jail, no matter who started the fight.

If a woman beats a man, everyone cheers and shout: Beat dat asshole!

Perfect equality I suppose...

[sweetylovesyou]

poor girls

[netcyrus]

stupid clumsy bitches

[t4r0n]

haha second that ;)

[Jakegothicsnake]

@netcyrus Shut up you sexist son of a b****!! IT WAS THEIR AWFUL HUSBANDS" FAULT! AND THEY DID IT ON PURPOSE!!!

[netcyrus]

[Jakegothicsnake]

I got a better idea, how about you GO F&^% YOURSELF!

[netcyrus]

[Jakegothicsnake]

Oh so you want it completely uncensored then eh? Fine. GO TO HELL AND BLOW SATAN YOU ARSEHOLE!! PISS OFF!!

[birtaa]

[Yorku1986]

@baffinislandbastard Your name says it all

[baffinislandbastard]

@Yorku1986 Your name says none of it... mine's out working while yours is at home sleeping on the couch.

[Yorku1986]

@baffinislandbastard I beg to differ bastard...I am a Podiatric Medicine student I hold a Bachelor of Science with honors in Kinesiologly...more active in many ways than you can ever be..I think you just revealed the truth about what YOU do all day. Hmmm probably working in Nunavut huh..what shoveling your drive way then heading back inside to be lame?

[baffinislandbastard]

@Yorku1986 that's cute... really it is and I promise I'm impressed... really... seriously... your mind- it's awesome. Aaanyway... I'm in Washington state sweetheart... not Canada. I forgive you. Much unlike my wife who refused to make my sandwich one too many times (which, coincidently... is only once).

[Yorku1986]

@baffinislandbastard I give up.. you just sound so wrong

[hellbanemaster]

"hit by a buss" would be a funny excuse

[LovelyYTRocks]

It better be true, bitch, if you know what's good for ya.

??? In English please and with better spelling this time, it's not like you have to save the world or anything, your not in any kind of hurry, just proper writing will do.

[mblond1]

the truth of the matter is, whether it's a man or a woman being abused, it's wrong!! i was abused by my ex and it's wrong no matter who does the hitting! my god ....this is an informative video. for those of you complaining, make your own darn video!!

[45Sam34]

@mblond1 You dumbass dont you know that 50% of woman get beaten that men them selves its because of the woman's potential husband or boyfriend beat them to death you dont know anything about this video STUPID ASS JERK

[Hzqi]

@45Sam34

And by the way, what is the 50% retardedness you garbling on with? 50% of who, where, when, what? You ACTUALLY think that 50% of women are physically assaulted by their male partners? Is this the correct deduction here? I've heard some grandiose bullshit before, but if you're serious, you're about the most delusional crackpot I've ever seen dribble imaginary statistics about Domestic Violence.

If you want to get in touch with reality, here's a good place to start

watch?v=VOu_BszChIE

[wormsto]

@mblond1 But men tend to feel emasculated and embarressed for not being able to defend themself, when society claims they should be the stronger one and shit. So they don't go to the police because they think it'll take away some of their manliness. Video's like this enforce that idea by implying that abuse victims are all women, thus making them feel alone. They need adverts demonstrating that other men go through this, so they won't be ashamed.

[TaraCrossBreed889]

@mblond1 you were really abused?!...Just asking cuz i wanna know the truth,

[kdavidmcd]

@mblond1 I too was abused by my ex... And now all women must pay for her mistake.

[damwmnm]

My wife ran into a doorknob.

[ViviBabyVideoz]

Bwahahahahaha...really? no comment

[kadaejam]

u bastard

[AbiH31]

This is quite effective! Thanks for posting!

[harrietharmman]

Sexist lies.

Where are all the picture of the countless male victims of female abuse?

Dishonest, sexist, feminist propaganda like this should be illegal

[tracksgarcia]

not agree with the illegal thing since there is free speech but its clear that men are attacked too. but its easier for man to leave the household.

[ccmerope]

bitch please...women are the victims of domestic violence 9/10...and some are murdered. ure an idiot if u think male victims are more common than female ones and should move to a Muslim country asap

[harrietharmman]

many surveys show the number fo victims to be roughly equal between the sexes - usually slightly more females but not much at all.

More women report it to the police - that's true, but then men are unwilling to report such matters as they are the ones who usually get arrested regardless of who the guilty party is.

As for a muslim country - well I live in the UK and we certainly moved a step closer to becoming a Muslim state this week

[grayestnova]

Which surveys?

[45Sam34]

@ccmerope exactly because 50% of woman get beaten to death somewhere or in their own home by their husband or boyfriend this girl named Demi who was a cheerleader she was stabbed 16 times by her boyfriend in her own home and this other girl named Natasha she was shot twice in the head by her boyfriend on valentines day

[Hzqi]

@45Sam34

Oh really? What day? When? It's a big world, and shit happens all the time. Would you like a linked to the young guy who was just recently stabbed in the crotch, and then allowed to bleed to death over the course of an hour while the wretched cunt and her female friend refused to call him an ambulance? Guess what, they got 5 years jail. GO THE PUSSY-PASS! Go directly to jail, pass go, collect $200, see you next homocide.

[Hzqi]

@ccmerope

The only idiot, is you, if you think 9 times out of 10, it's a male, beating down, as both aggressor and instigator. Or to put my most diplomatic hat on and retract your choice of words, maybe not an idiot, but grossly ignorant and bigotted. This nonsense of acting as if women are exclusively angelic and non-complicit and non-participant is a tune that is fast losing it's audience. The internet has opened males up to each other's circumstance. And... They're talking. Gig is up gals.

[perogie34]

@Hzqi Get off your high horse. Female and male victims are both gravley important.

[Hzqi]

@perogie34

I agree with you. The fact that you acknowledge ALL victims are important, is important. The fact that you even ACKNOWLEDGE that men can be victims is important. As long as you also agree that this is a subject that should be dealt with, in cool-headed, objective, empirical, mature, truth-seeking state of mind -instead of the demonizing, pathologizing, lying, lying, lying, victimologicalizing hysteria of feminist assholes- then we've nothing to argue about. THEY are on the highhorse

[ccmerope]

@Hzqi sharia law in of itself highly favors domestic abuse. which is why all ure muslims countries are ass backwards. even the rich muslim countries like saudi & uae are unbearable to live in due to the observance of the koran.

[Hzqi]

@ccmerope

It's not WHY they're backwards. But it certainly contributes to it. There's more to the stifling of Islamic states than that. There's been decrees in the past that aren't necessarily even in the Koran that have forbidden things that would help their regions progress. Kind of the way Catholicism has "Dogma" that expands doctrine.

You might consider it a generalized trend, because not all Islamic countries deal with these things exactly the same way.

[garizable]

@ccmerope u r fighting one kind of prejudice and supporting another....wat was the need to say "muslim" country?

[Hzqi]

@ccmerope

9/10? Wrong, way wrong, completely wrong.

Hey, here's an idea. Try getting your information from a source that isn't FINANCIALLY INVESTED in propagating the commercial empire of Domestic Violence. A good place to start for an independent analysis from an empirical source, that ISN'T invested, is the Centres for Disease Control.

People go "Ohs, but the FBIs says!". FBI does NOT track data on DV. The FBI merely parrots the government line that is sourced for policy. SHELTER MOVEMENT.

[Hzqi]

@ccmerope

PS, I almost forget to mention your spectacularly clear, asshole-indicating, false-conflating attitude about "moving to a muslim country". First you'd have to indicate which Muslim country, because different regions interpret sharia a little differently. Secondly, you're suggesting someone who DISPUTES the truth of claims about the violence that OCCURS means that they should move somewhere that it's ACCEPTABLE? Hey, nice pathologizing of rigour. You're an asshole :D Nice work.

[Szriko]

@ccmerope

Cool sexism and outright ignorance of facts, bro.

[CHICKENSRTEAPOTS]

@ccmerope the men there think there incharge and will do anythhing to prove it its just plain wrong.

[Stoetry]

@ccmerope I couldn't agree more. I must say that I am very surprised at some of the comments out here. I did not realized that a lot of the abusers were actually here on youtube, hiding behind their comments. This has only inspire me to do more for those women who are suffering. I am working on a documentary, its the story of Jenny Riley, a young girl who was killed on New Year's day 2011. So to me this is very serious, there are lives at stake here. I have no time to waste on stupid comments.

[Areallykelwguy]

@ccmerope A woman is severely assaulted by her husband/boyfriend every 15 second A man is severely assaulted by his wife/girlfriend every 14 seconds.
