10 REASONS A MAN SHOULD NEVER STRIKE A WOMAN (+ BONUS)

According to a domestic violence assistance organization, one in four women will experience domestic violence during her lifetime. This goes to show that despite the society’s intolerance for domestic abuse, it still manages to own the day in some way, somewhat starting to seem like a hopeless situation.

Most men have gotten so accustomed to taking it out on women physically whenever it gets on their nerves. It is more like an epidemic, to say the least.

But even in the midst of the brouhaha, men can afford to put the silliness of striking women aside, ultimately changing the tides and letting to rest the issue of men striking women. But it will take more than mere instances to achieve such.

One of the ways by which such can be achieved is to outline certain factors that picture the downsides of striking women. No doubts, it may make a man feel like the ultimate warrior, but that is not what matters at all.

The receiver of this brutality (the woman) is not to be left without concern in this matter. While a man may feel all shades of masculine after striking a woman, it should be brought into consideration what state the act leaves the woman, and that is what this piece will be highlighting. Perhaps if more men knew better, they would do better.

This article is all about making you know better. As a man, before you raise your hand on her, consider the following.

1. SHE IS HUMAN LIKE YOU (HUMAN ENOUGH TO MAKE MISTAKES AS YOU):

Most men commit to women with expectations that the woman will reward them with flawless saintliness. They seem to forget that these women are equally humans, prone to mistakes and all. So the moment a woman falls short in even the littlest way, a man snaps and gets physical. That’s a shame. Treat OTHERS as you wish to be treated, especially women.

2. SHE IS SOMEBODY'S DAUGHTER (DO TO HER WHAT YOU WOULD OTHERS DO TO YOUR DAUGHTER):

It is said that “what goes around comes around.” Before you take it out on a woman, remember she has a father who treasures her deeply and wouldn’t wish to see his daughter in the condition your abuse would put her in. Also, recall that one day you’ll have a daughter too. Whatever you wouldn’t want to be done to your daughter, don’t do it to someone’s daughter.

3. ASK YOURSELF, “WILL BEATING SOLVE THE PROBLEM?” OR SHE IS JUST YOUR FRUSTRATIONS DUMPING GROUND?

Sparing the rod will indeed spoil the child. But please, a woman is not a child that you use the rod on; in a bid to drive away foolishness. Does that even solve the problem? Or she is just your frustration dumping ground?

4. DOES GOD BEAT YOU WHEN YOU OFFENDED HIM THE MOST?

Think about how it would be if God decided he would beat us whenever we offend him. Do you think anyone would survive it? Why not simply treat a woman how God treats you?

5. HEADING OR LEADING DOESN'T MEAN BEING IN CHARGE: 

Being a “head” or a “leader” doesn’t qualify you as being in charge. The world has had its fair share of bad leaders. Nigeria itself is a victim of bad leadership. So anyone can be a leader by one means or the other. But that doesn’t mean he is in charge. Leadership does not presuppose “being in charge.” It is about TAKING CARE OF THE PEOPLE IN YOUR CHARGE. He that has ears, let him hear.

6. WOMEN LEARN MORE THROUGH SOFT AND CARING ADVICE AND NOT THROUGH VIOLENCE:

Being emotional creatures, the easy way around women is tenderness, softness, gentleness, etc. Therefore, rather than try to drive a point across via violence (which doesn’t promise to work), try to whisper soft, caring advice into her ears and watch her align herself along smoothly.

7. YOU STAND THE CHANCE OF LOSING THE RESPECT YOUR WOMAN HAD FOR YOU: 

Most men think that by striking a woman, he inspires respect. But that is far from it. On the contrary, such a dastardly act is not one expected to come from men of good repute. Therefore, in exhibiting such, a woman could begin losing the respect she once had.

8. YOUR CHILDREN ARE WATCHING AND LEARNING FROM YOU:

It is known that children learn faster by imitating their parents. Therefore, before lifting that hand to strike your woman, would you be proud of yourself if your child saw you?

9. HOW YOU RESOLVE ISSUES TELLS A LOT ABOUT YOUR PERSONALITY:

In order words; if you always resort to violence in the face of issues, you’re most likely an undesirable who will unleash the dragon one fateful day. Trust me, you don’t want women and people in general thinking of you that way.

10. YOU MAY NEED THAT BODY FOR SEXUAL SATISFACTION AGAIN:

The conclusion that a girl has become sexually unappealing to you simply because you have gotten her laid a couple of times could be inconclusive. Do you see that woman whose body you want to tear apart by violence? you will be shocked to find yourself craving helplessly for it. So treat that woman right. Your feelings can betray you the next moment.

11. WOMEN ARE WIRED TO STORE UP THINGS IN THEIR MIND: 

Women are highly sensitive to things that happen to them and around them. Her mind has the capacity to store up events from years back in the order and fashion with which they played out. Therefore, the minds of such sensitive creatures should not be loaded with bad memories of physical abuse. The hurt and scars may remain forever!
