Macron Got Slapped And The World Laughed; This Is Why Men Don’t (973 Views)

Earlier today, a clip surfaced online showing French President, Emmanuel Macron being pushed on the cheek by his wife, Brigitte Macron. What should have sparked outrage, concern, and deep conversations around domestic violence was instead reduced to meme fodder and crude jokes. The reaction has been as swift as it has been disturbing: mockery, laughter, judgment, and the ever familiar chorus of “That’s what he gets for marrying his teacher.” And just like that, a moment that should have highlighted a very real issue, domestic violence against men, was drowned in ridicule. No hashtags. No public outcry. No feminist organizations stepping forward. No nonprofit issuing a statement. Just silence. Deafening silence. Abuse is abuse, regardless of the gender of the perpetrator or the victim. If the roles were reversed, if President Macron had slapped or pushed Brigitte Macron, there would be protests. There would be hashtags. There would be fire and fury from advocacy groups. The world would come to a standstill demanding ability and protection for women, and rightly so. But when it is a man, a world leader no less, experiencing what can only be described as a moment of public humiliation and physical aggression, the same voices fall silent. Why? Because society has normalized the idea that men are too strong to be victims. That their pain is comical. That their abuse is somehow deserved. And so, they suffer not just in silence but in isolation and shame. President Macron has long been the subject of public scrutiny because of his marriage. This age gap, had the roles been reversed, would be celebrated as empowerment or love defying the odds. But for him, it is used as a weapon to justify abuse. And now,...

One of the major reasons men don’t talk about the abuse they go through in their marriages because no one cares, I wonder what would have happened if the case was reversed. I’m quite sure some parastatals and influential people somewhere would have been calling for his resignation by now. Everybody na hypocr!te seh… 3 Likes |

Blessing28s:A lot of married men can relate. You do not want to be mouthed as abusing a woman so you look on helpless and bear the abuse coming from her. You provide for the family monthly in six digits, buy her a car and live for her and the children and yet you experience abuse coming from her and the children. What can you do except to pray and carefully play the game so they don't gang up against you in your later years when you will need care and trust God to help you to not suffer neglect and abandonment in old age. 1 Like |
