  • if you look at it from a different angle, you can beat this girl half to death and when she takes you you to court, you can show the judge the pic of the yelling fist thing and say, according to her its not so bad, in fact its just as bad as yelling at her, then you could ask the judge if he would send someone to jail fro yelling at a girl. isn't it funny how stupid comparisons can be turned around :).

  • I think these images have a good message. Words can hurt, especially when you allow them to. They aren’t akin to physical abuse, but I think all of us can be a little kinder about the words we use. Espically with people that we consider to be our friends and loved ones.

  • I think if verbal and physical abuse were treated equally, that "40%" statistic would probably go up to something like 90%. From what I've witnessed in my life, women are usually WAY more verbally abusive towards men than the other way around. With that said, I really really do wish society functioned with more gender equality.

  • The pain of verbal abuse is proportionate to the creativity and language skills of the person doing it. An average person's ability to abuse with words is far below physical trauma, -absolutely- . But I think someone who's escaped a particularly charismatic cult leader could tell you that words can be a very, *very* scary thing. Don't ever underestimate their potential, complex language is what makes humans powerful.

    All that said, only the truly ignorant equate one form of abuse to another.

  • I like to start my mornings by standing in front of tractors.

  • hahaha, the thumbnail made me laugh so hard, weird at first but look at the title and you will get it lolol

  • bonus : saying verbal abuse hurts just as much as physical abuse is like going to the doctor to have a syringe poked into your arm to take some blood and say it hurts just as much as breaking your fucking leg and then having to walk a mile .

  • men : mainly physical abuse & ignorance.

    women :mainly verbal abuse & bitching.

    humans : mainly FUCKING RETARDED MONKEYS !

  • @SilveradoNL You had me going for a minute there. Nice try.

  • Comment removed

  • He gets so emotional about some things. Its so good!

  • what is the outro song?

  • Verbal abuse would consist of more then namecalling occassionally. If one is in a Relationship with someone verbally abusive and writing about it, they've made the first Step: seeing that there is a Problem. Assuming of course that there really is a Problem other then a desperate Grab for Attention.

    This one quote you mentioned got me riled up: "...Words left unspoken..."? Assuming that i wouldn't want to hurt this "Human" how would i do that? Apparently keeping my Temper in Check isn't enough.

  • He should make more videos like this. Not the content, but the delivery. It was more powerful, he actually got worked up, and it just seems more natural than what he's doing now.

  • why does video picture of this remind me of God Hand?

  • Gotta love the Amazing Atheist, he raises a powerful point. I was in quite a few verbally abusive relationships where if I would yell at my girlfriend her friends are like "SHAME ON YOU!" but whenever she'd yell at at me they're like "You deserved it". I hardly did anything to her, she had some mad anger problems!

  • @Ar0474 Feminisits constantly bitch about how hard women have it, but in many ways it's not a rose garden for men either, and some of thouse problmes are directly caused by soceity's stance on women, as discussed in this video, when is ostensibly the cause of these so called "womens rights" issues.

    It makes me wish I had the power to experiance being born and living as a woman just so that I can give an opinon with a certain level of objectivity on which sex genuinly has it better.

  • @Chayraz2 I agree completely, but the thing that I think is really stupid is about how people tend to judge who has it harder by their sex. That's pretty stupid considering the fact that sex shouldn't matter, we're all human. I guess they think that a woman with a disease still has it harder than a man with a disease even if their disease is the same. There are pros and cons for both sexes.

  • Anyone think he speaks and moves like Heath Ledger's Joker? Just noticed it watching this video. All he needs to do is lick his lips every few seconds!

  • I don't know , chicks don't fight , but they fight with words....and trust me , I've had some chicks utterly destroy me. And it sucks when you don't have shit to say back.

    I'd rather get the shit kicked out of me , because at least you can heal from that , but words....especially callous ones , can fucking hurt. But it hurts for both sides , so yes...these images WERE stupid

  • Dude saying stuff to someone directly is very very different to saying something on youtube 。

  • SHOOTING FIST OUT MAH MOUTH!!! BLAAAAHHHH!!!

  • this guy's gonna get a heart attack very soon. But I agree with him!

  • Nice camera

  • I agree that verbal abuse is not as bad as physical abuse. However making verbal abuse also seem insignificant is not right. there are some cases where people blow things out of proportion. But my mom is so downtrodden by my father, so afraid of him because of the things he says to her. He is inches from becoming physically violent. She doesn't even want to live anymore practically. Now tell me she wants to be a victim. Now tell me verbal abuse isn't a form of violence.

  • @aroseandherthorns i think he doesnt mean those cases

    he is talking about regular insults and light mobbing

    not the verbal domestic abuse

    and also his problem is with the generalisation of verbal abuse is only done by men

    take a look and watch how many women or girls do heavy mobbing and verbal abuse against men or other women

    women are showing far more often a verbal abusive than a physical abusive behaviour in comparison to men

  • @aroseandherthorns My thoughts exactly. I agree with TJ on how those images were dumb and also biased towards women, but there are also many cases of what can actually be described as real verbal abuse. These cases apply to men and women.

  • @aroseandherthorns Btw, pay a visit to the police.

  • I think those pictures could as well be parody. Say it illustrates how it would be if words actually hurt as much as physical abuse. Personally i think it was creative and hilarious.

  • Why is the recording in such a random place? You're by a damn truck in the middle of nowhere

  • @ToastPieChickenCake probably so he can talk loud

  • Equality goes both ways, bitches.

  • The real saying is, "Sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can break my heart".

  • @misha9137 Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never reach me. Especially if im deaf (or dont care)

  • Wow TJ. You had some fucking fire in this one.

  • One of the better videos.

  • I wouldn't be surprised if those pictures were meant as jokes, and overzealous politically correct pussies took them seriously.

  • The first sin of satanism is stupidity! :-)

  • @smetal22 i do not know why you bring up something that atheists don't even think exists.

  • @doombybbr I don't really consider myself an atheist! But I KNOW I'm not a Satanist at all. But this I must tell you. If u look up what satanism preaches, Like I've checked it out, you'll be quite surprised to how satanism makes more sense than christian bs. But I do repeat. I hardly believe in god, I don't believe in the devil. But Satanism seems more down to earth, superficially looking at it.

  • @doombybbr Atheists DO believe brainwashing exists. Some of them believe it's bad for children, and that it often results in legislation that restricts human rights.

  • @smetal22 So your saying all christians will be satanist when they get old? :)

  • Where the fuck is he?

  • @shadeslate some quarry?

  • 3:13 WATCH OUT TJ!!!  COP CAR!!!

  • Language...

    The reason why animals are smarter!!!

  • man up, anyone? I'm tired of these stories of kids being bullied online and committing suicide, and kids going emo cuz mommy and daddy are so mean. The world has gone soft and i hate. Yes, i do agree that you can hurt someone feelings with words, but get over it. Jesus fucking Christ.

  • I used to be hurt by verbal abuse, then I took an arrow to the knee and realised words don't hurt, arrows do.

  • Thought this might be relevant:

    Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will put me into a state of severe depression causing me to commit suicide.

    lol

  • Sure that happens sometimes, but how often does people commit suicide because they were called something unpleasant compared to the number of people who gets killed by physical violende? Sure, there are cases where verbal abuse can be detrimental, but if a dude calls his girlfriend a bitch, like the thing is in most cases, nothing fucking happens

  • @StormHornet56 "depression" is a mental disorder caused by wrong chemical distrabution within the brain. Get your facts right

  • RIGHT ON!

  • People are fucking pussies.

  • I agree about the double standards, but verbal abuse can be bad. Of course, some woman take anything as verbal abuse, and that's stupid, I mean yelling now and then is normal, but real verbal abuse can really hurt some people.

  • @imshanedulong actually i think you agree more than you know. his main point was that this image only depicted verbal abuse from one side and was used by people to feel victimized when they were not. but he from what i saw dose believe that verbal abuse is abuse (though not exactly equivalent to physical abuse) and that some people take everything as verbal abuse (your yelling example).

  • i laugh when people insult me, however i think its completely ridiculous how people react to words, and that is the only reason i feel the need to swear excessively. If people weren't such pussies i wouldn't need to swear so much, its their fault.

  • @Furoar Yes, a woman could beat me up, but because she would be a wrestling champion. Hey Idiotic, numb fucked, moron that has been born by a monkey, eaten by a slug, and then vomited onto a piece of dog shit. According to you, it should hurt like a broken wrist, did it? I don't think so.

  • Yeah, as if I say that I'd like to dump a shit in someone face, and they take it as if I broke their arm or something. Verbal abuse is fucking nothing in todays culture, if you get hurt by verbal abuse, you are a pussy. Don't even bother arguing with me, because you know it's true.

  • @joujou264 That's your conformity pressure? Misogynistic emasculation? I bet a woman could easily kick your ass, neckbeard.

  • didnt you have a gf

  • Wait a sec.... women can speak MUCH MUCH louder than men and they're generally better at talking. I can't see how they're at a disadvantage verbally.

    If anything, I'd expect more women to verbally abuse men. They're actually at an advantage since men are restricted by laws not to physically touch women. The reason why you don't find many cases against men is because men don't report it.

  • @giriisindahouse I agree with your second point, but the generalization that women are generally better speaking than men is ridiculous.

  • @billybob7217 There's a difference between being better at speaking and being better at talking.

  • @giriisindahouse women talk too much

  • 1:18 No. That's what you're saying. It's disappointing to see you misrepresent (strawman) then dedicate the video barking about it. Sure u could quote mine that comment excerpted for that "abuse is lesser" line while ignoring the overall message that words hurt (trauma from verbal abuse is real) but that'd be just as dishonest.

    Having come from "I'm going to hell" video, the hypocrisy here is immense. "Take what's dealt to u or we will assume you have persecution complex" Peer pressure. Classy.

  • @Furoar You have a valid point, he went off an an unimportant tangent about something possibly incorrectly inferred from the poster. But I still think his point is just as valid. Neither male rape/abuse/assault by women is view in our society as an atrocity as much as the opposite. Words can be very powerful and hurt very much (I know especially, having been bullied for 10 years straight), but it's in no way equal to physical violence. It's a bullshit campaign if that's their intent.

  • He's Seth Rogan's brother.

  • This is the first time I've ever agreed with TAA.

  • What? That are naked girls on tumbler? BRB

  • while i agree there are by no means equal, i personally would prefer to get killed with reletive speed than to me so depressed that i killed my self. surely it changes depending on where upon the spectrum you look. at the lower end phsysical abususe is obviously more destructive but as you go up they equal out more and more. now obviously you can become truamatized by physical violence as well but at the top of the spectrum theyre pretty damn equivical. just imo.

  • I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!

  • another good video.

  • That's like my ex girlfriend... always finds a way to be a victim so she can make another person look bad.

  • this is the video i watched to got me to subsribe

  • Fuck off you meek cunts. If a word can hurt you so you deserved to be hurt!

  • Fuck Heath Ledger , you should have played the Joker!, Where is this Passion now TJ?

  • Hurtfull wordz are hurtfull wordz, NOT abuse.. ps, you make me hard TJ (a)

  • I find it ironic that the ad next to the video for me is for a class on Christianity

  • like this if you feel like eating a poptart now

  • Hey TJ how come you aren't as passionate as this in your most recent videos?

  • funny how its only men who are the abusers.

  • @Tedey1992 Naja,mit der Logik die dieser Trottel anwendet musst er ja ein "Untermensch" sein.

  • @NeDiscereCessa

    Untermenschen sind diejenigen die den Menschen in ihren Eigenschaften nachstehen. Also ist derjenige ein Untermensch der keinen Menschenverstand besitzt ... somit ist deine Aussage vollkommen korrekt!

  • @Tedey1992 In Skyrim,the woman and man beat each other Equally,AND WITH HONOR!!!

  • Women should be in the kitchen, nuff said..

  • have you ever been on tumblr, TJ? it's filled with people pretending to be depressed just to get some fucking attention, they love being the victim.

  • @xxlostinmusic

    SO IS FUCKING FACEBOOK. I hate it. And then they get like 44 likes for that crap.

  • @NorthCitySider I know right? And when you post something positive nobody seems to give a fuck smh

  • @KanyeAirJordans

    Yeah definitely.

  • Women are just as verbally abusive an men.

  • Stupidity is a SHE? SEXIST!

  • @NorthCitySider It would be no more sexist than if stupidity were a he. Giving an exception to females is really stupid. That is, of course, if you're joking. But the fact that it's hard to tell really says how fucked up this topic is.

  • @Meikitatakikarim

    Yes, I was just joking.

  • yay your pop-tarts

  • @TheAmazingAtheist The verbal abuse pictures look like some kind of bizarre reverse fisting. Don't let the hipsters get you down TJ.

  • why do I keep watching this guy

  • tumblr? ishyddt. and i liked you, too...

  • i was watching that bulldozer like he was about to get in it and move some dirt or something, idk..

  • As a great man once said, "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but FIRST YOU HAVE TO THROW 'EM."

  • ...better because of it (sorry i hit the wrong button on the computer) ("ett" waas supposed to be "better")

  • actual verbal abuse hurts, it can be painful, even when you got think skin or whatever...but physical abuse is something i know about...my dad, as a kid, was beaten by his father and i have to this day never met him,and my dad is a ett

  • @nerDchk It depends 100% on how you relate to people. If you give half a shit about someone's opinion of you, their words will hurt. If you don't, they won't.

  • Sure my last post were a bit nonsequitor-ish but it's true Only people who believe in verbal abuse and in my belief Religious people should die. Oops I did it again I used belief in it's true definition not that of blind faith. Death to Religious people, Boybands, my old teacher, 85% of america's population, Beliebers, Boy band fans, trolls(xcept wehn trlol I), greedy politicians(sorry guys Obama fits this category.) and couples that always try to express their love in the face of others.

  • I really enjoyed this video not only because of the lie that verbal abuse is.

    Psychological abuse is real though. Bullying is real and so on. But when someone calls you Bitch it's not abusive at all. When You are trying to help people and dumber people like my old teacher who was a real cunt tells you that you are a nobody that is so stupid that your life isn't worth a cent and your death serves more purpose day in and dayout that's what I call abuse. Stupid lowlifes that don't deserve to live.

  • @livedandletdie i was bullied for 7 years and i turned out fine.

  • Hell, a woman can cut off a mans penis, throw it into a meat grinder, and she's only ... righteously angry.

    Imagine what would happen to a guy that mutilated the genitalia of a woman... He would be on the cover of every newspaper and magazine as the second coming of the anti christ.

    You know, there are some that might think of that as a sort of double standard...

  • actully the verbal abuse is worse. it's being used constantly to depress a person in to doing anything. even in the worse case of phsyical abuse you'll be scared cause of the taunting of the abuser

  • @D100J Only if your pathetic enough to let a scenario like that continue.

  • @stellpoons that's how it works. it's not hard to get someone to be down to become pitiful or an easy target. i never heard of a painful verbal abuse between 2 people that hurt with out any physical abuse.

  • Words hurt? After years of being on the internet, words don't hurt me at all, really, people need to grow thicker skin. I must also note physical abuse can cause death, unavoidable pain (verbal abuse only causes possible pain, and if your like me, it won't cause a drop of pain), and possible physical scarring depending on the actions, while verbal abuse's emotional scarring entirely depends upon the person.

  • you also said dudes shouldn't get caught up in their emotions? haha ok, drones we shall be

  • @joshfrmn you're saying that if a guy hits a girl because of his testosterone, he's being a bitch, and if hes getting bitched at, he's suppossed to take it, or else, in your eyes, not really a man. Women can't just lay down an "emotional storm" card down for verbal abuse.

  • Double standards are a fact of life. Believe it or not, men and women are different from each other.

  • I'm male. And I think words hurt similar to physical abuse. I know this sounds so pussy-ish, but I've been hurt more by words then I have by physical abuse. That might be because I'm well built and don't really take much damage... But thus far, I've heard awful things said to people and I've heard people get bullied by words on such a regular basis, and I know how it feels to be grinded down inside, bruises and cuts heal... Words stick in your head and float around.

  • I was eating pop tarts while i was watching this video! It doesnt really matter but...it makes me feel special...

  • @vivalakakarot Me too dude^^

  • Why is it that the woman is always the victim, but the man can NEVER be a victim? They're both human beings, just different genders. One of the many reasons I don't have respect for feminists, both male and female.

  • Try being in the military. I have to live in denial when it comes to the amount of stupidity that is produced each day.

  • Cure for verbal abuse: Learning to not be an absolute pussy.

  • @goliathcombatwalker to add to that, you can also just leave. i dont know about you people but its bloody annoying to be yelled at for nothing all day. really i have no sympathy for someone who stays in an abusive relationship once they realize its abusive. you cant get strength from other people. so those who remain need to find the balls to leave a bad relationship, be it verbally or physically.

  • Was that what it was saying? I thought it was "High Art".

  • Someone saying verbal abuse is the same as physical abuse is the same as an alcoholic saying that they have a disease. It's such bullshit, we all know it.

  • 233 people are fucking christians

  • if a bitch hits me, i might have to be a "bad person" and smack the bitch back

  • cop car 3:13

  • Metallica wakes me up in the morning.

  • @ThomasXp hell yea

  • totally support you man!! you are my new hero anyway..

  • What was the name of the song playing at the end?

  • @SethBurden It's one of Cody Weber's compositions. Check out his channel for more info.

  • As a woman, I would like to say that I totally agree with this video. Double-standards are ridiculous and unfair.

  • @foojuice101 Eh only if you believe in equality. Personally I feel that men and women should be treated differently. We don't treat two year olds exactly the same as 90 year olds, both groups are people, but they aren't exactly he same. Men and women are different, truly different and we shouldn't try to cover up those differences. the sexes should be equal in terms of the value we place on their life and well being, they shouldn't be treated like carbon copies of each other.

  • You SURE your not conservative?

  • @Crillia What?

  • people who think words hurt as much as phisical pain should be stabbed then called a moron who should be kept from breeding so that they don't spread their stupidity and then asked which one hurt more

  • ...and most of the time it is us women that we will start a fight....I think that responsibility goes to the responsible...and not to some stereotype that was created in time were the man it is the bad guy and the abuser...and the woman it is the victim.....

  • I totally agree with everything was said in this video women and men are saying bad words one to the other when they are angry...but that does not make the man a monster..and the woman a victim...I think us women are a lot worse then the men are because...we demand more then we give....we complain and bitch for whatever little reason....

  • its highlighting what to be aware of and walk away from. they should make some for men

  • in a relationshp, you are with somene who knows you a little mre. ideally loves yu and are close to your heart. when they choose words that are abusive, its going to hurt a whole lot more than someone who is a stranger. they know your weak points and the hurt cuts deeper. the pictres put into perspective what is actually happening. its recognizing it.

    it to me is pointing that its better to recognize and walk away rather then stay and closed off and carry the baggage into the next relationshp

  • Of course, physicall abuse hurts more than verbal abuse.

    But it doesn't mean that verbal abuse is "better" and I think there are male victims of verbal abuse, too. Humans are more sensible (at leat me) than most people think and when you have a look at some bullying victims (verbally bullying) you realise that it can creat neurosis.

    In fact the problem is that there are still some countries like jemen where it is odinary to abuse women. This picture of patriarchy is generalized.
