friendly reminder that “mutual abuse” is literally considered a myth by a lot of experts in the area of IPV, DV, and abusive relationships in general.
abuse is all about an imbalance of power and control. in an abusive relationship one person tends to have more control than the other and of the other. both can of course behave in unhealthy and toxic ways because of the abuse, but “mutual abuse” is literally being debunked by therapists that even goes as far as to say: “mutually abusive relationships don’t exist.”
instead what people often confuse as being “mutual abuse” is actually known as reactive abuse. when the abused partner has had enough and finally decides to fight back, not ‘cause they want power and control to persist, but because they want the power and control to stop. therefore it’s important to note who’s initiating the abuse (aka who’s in control) and who’s reacting (aka who’s being abused).
claims of “mutual abuse” is used to shift blame and manipulate the abused into believing that they’re an abuser themselves who’s equally - if not more - responsible for the abuse as the actual abuser, experts say, calling the term a “victim-blaming tactic.”
used to gaslight the victim, like for example claiming their reactive anger as aggressive behaviour. this is all a part of the abuse to gain that control and power over the other. using the victim’s possibly violent self-defence to manipulate others into believing that the roles are reversed and that the abuser is not the abuser but rather the abused.
my own personal experience echoes this; my abuser loved to remind me of how hurtful, irrational, and difficult i was being towards her (yes, her.. a woman). and while i did eventually behave in a toxic way towards her, this was me reacting to her abuse, when i had my meltdowns of having had enough. i’m not proud of how i behaved back then.. not proud of some of the things i said and did. it’s not who i am and what i stand for, but i recognise it for what it was: resistance of the control and power she tried to have over me.
abuse can push you so close to the edge that you feel it necessary to act in ways that aren’t in alignment with who you are.. just to survive another day.
if you’ve ever displayed reactive abuse towards your abuser, that does not make you an abuser too. self defence is not mutual abuse.

Another braindead radfem JD hater for the block list. He was the victim and his FEMALE partner was the abuser, hence why he won. Build a bridge and get over it 🥱
Radfems are more obsessed with breasts than they think men are.
Radfems are weirdly obsessed femininity and women that’s honestly borders on predatorial.
It’s actually very uncomfortable to witness, and this is coming from someone who eat pussy like their last meal.
I Can Only Imagine The Utter Relief Johnny Must Have Felt In This Very Moment. Thank You Josh Richman (Iambobbylondon) For Sharing This Beautiful Moment 🥺🤍
More support for victims of Abuse by Amber Heard supporters! But in all seriousness, you don't have to be a good person to be a victim of abuse. Sure, having a pattern of lying/abusing others disseminates your credibility. One of the main arguments used by people who support Heard is that perfect victims don't exist (which I completely agree with actually). But yet, when the time comes to show support to a victim who was a literal child. His abuser/ a celebrity sensually harrased and used her influence to silence and torment him. You do the same thing that you claim was done to Amber. I have never supported Amber, but not once have I mocked her or believed her to be deserving of inhuman treatment and mocking. You can not claim to care about victims of abuse and then abuse and belittle others. While I don't agree with what said and there were certainly better ways to support Johhny. (Adding to the hate towards her when we should simply focus on the facts and case). This doesn't take away from the fact he was abused and taken advantage of as a literal child. Not to mention the harassment and juvenile behavior from Amber heard supporters shown yet again.
