Domestic Violence Is Sexy | BlogHer

Domestic Violence Is Sexy | BlogHer | Herstory | Scoop.it
From www.blogher.com - March 26, 2012 2:36 PM
Why do celebrities and victims of domestic violence like Rihanna continue to glamorize abuse?

 

Why is the media making domestic violence sexy? Because we are letting them.

They’re using the pictures of a leather-clad Rihanna bumping and grinding on stage, not the pictures where her face is torn up and bruised. If we continue to let these celebrities parade their choices in front of us, then we become immune to the truth about domestic violence.

The ex-wife said she wasn't a beaten wife, just a few slaps because she was difficult to live with. Hello?

No-one should have the right to hit another person, or animal. That's just wrong.

She's not in a situation where she fears for her life, she got out, or he got out, don't know that detail. Yet, she still somehow feels partly to blame. It takes courage to stand up, go the whole way.

An opinionated woman obsessed with objects, entertained by ephemera, intrigued by researching, fascinated by culture & addicted to writing. The wind says my name; doesn't put an @ in front of it, so maybe you don't notice. http://www.kitsch-slapped.com
