georgegeorgia Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 (edited) I never see or hear this much in South East Asia I was shocked this week to see a serving police officer in Australia murder shooting his ex gay partner and his Bfriend whilst on duty last Monday during his shift then went back to work I was shocked to see a lot of news taking about big domestic violence in western countries and police receiving call outs every day What makes someone take revenge on their ex partner? Jealousy? Rejection ? I never forget back in 1978 in Australia seeing a man next door neighbour shoot dead his wife in front of me sad to see in front of his children Was you brought up.in a domestic violence house , this was very big in the 70's & 80's I know The 1970's police did not take DV 😒 seriously Does domestic violence exist in Thailand? Are police involved in Thailand to do something? Are there program and services to be available Is this common it's sad And hopefully times change Edited February 27 by georgegeorgia 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to do with Thailand. Domestic violence won't stop until all homes have at least one stable parent that teaches the value of life. Two of course are better, and having the other parent around to teach helps immeasurably. Children learn a lot from their peers, especially if the parents are absent or not involved. In this culture, and most Asian cultures, men dominate, looking at women as secondary. This posture leads to demeaning behavior and sometimes violence. Women looked at as equals by their men leaves less room for this demeaning behavior, and more communication. Every person that treats a woman good rubs off. Children see it in homes, and others see it in public, at least part of the time. People gossip, especially here, and that talk can be better if the men would do a better job treating the women equally. This has gone on for generations and won't change for a long time. These asinine lakorns make some men look like heroes and some as demons. It actually matches real life in many ways, with the exception of less heroes and more demons. Anyone can speak out against domestic violence. Not doing anything makes it easier to happen. Women should never take a beating. It only leads to more. The same with men, as some are abused by women. Kids see mom , or dad, get hit, and they think it's normal, and they'll follow in their own relationships. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spidermike007 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 This is the kind of thing that juvenile personalities, with very small minds engage. In a developed mind when a relationship is not working out do what you can to improve things, and if you cannot fix it you simply move on. That's how real men behave. With dignity and care for others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting with you never see domestic violence in SE Asia which is truly a laughable observation. Security in the west is trained not to use physical violence. The other day I walked with my Thai wife here in Canada. Some mental case started following us and hurling obscenities. A rather young security guy saw this and instead of jumping him he simply said come talk to me. The druggie continued "talking to him" while the young security guy just stood there taking the abuse with his hand in the pocket. I thought it was a rather noble way of handling the situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to do with the situation I'm talking about. But as that incident seems to have disturbed you enough to remember it. And the psychology behind that is you are not used to it , if you are abused by street drug addicts/ mental illness every few days as I am it becomes the "norm" , I encourage you to walk in the late hours around that area rather than use "avoidance" but you won't Of course you will blame that Canadian city when in reality you could walk in Sydney Australia and get the same thing in the early hours , You will continue to have that PTSD with that incident,there is no evidence he was of any harm to you ,just shouting abuse , it's you wernt used to that situation , you must get used to it and continue to walk to confront your fears !!!. You thought it was noble because he saved your ass , what if he didn't get involved, you need to "man up " and handle situations like this yourself if you can't fight then keep walking , it shows your weakness in confronting these situations, learn Krav Maga or boxing !!

So in other words if this guy wearing a security uniform didn't get involved you would of Shat yourself not knowing how to deal with a guy following you shouting abuse ! Meanwhile you Scared Sammy notice this and think what a good security guard to do this Had it been me walking behind you I would of gone around you whilst the guy was abusing you It proves you have no confidence in your ability as a man.

" Not your business to be telling others how to conduct their lives / manage their thoughts etc. You do this repeatedly, your arrogance seems to be limitless in telling others how they should think about life / how they should think about various situations in life.

I should have jumped a homeless druggie and beat his azz. Yep, I would have been a really tough guy. Meanwhile on the streets of Thailand you probably walked with your head down and wai every time a car tried to run you over so you could buy yourself another day in sex paradise.
