My Stupid Brother and Assholes that Need to Treat Women Better

Hey bloggers!

So what I would like to talk about today is abusive people. Now, in my last blog I mentioned that I myself have been a victim of abuse, so when I see people abuse others, quite frankly it pisses me off.

Yesterday, my brother ran out of gas at his friend's house and called his girlfriend who is always over at our house to take him to get more gas in his car. We are all tired of him relying on everyone else to enable his irresponsible behavior. We go and pick him up and when his girl friend decides to ask questions about exactly what happened, he of course starts yelling at her for no reason and then starts yelling at her because apparently driving to the gas station that costs less is being stupid..... She tries to tell him to shut the fuck up and stay in the back seat, but he just keeps yelling. I have dealt with this my entire life from him. And yesterday we learned what exactly abuse is in health class. That is considered verbal and emotional abuse.

The day before this occured, while speaking to his girlfriend, he proceeded to put his hand on her face in order to get her to stop talking. She smacks him on the arm to get him to stop, and he slaps her behind her head. Now, is it just me, or does this seem like physical abuse? Again, I have put up with this my entire life from him.

My brother thinks that men are always right and women are stupid. This is a perfect example of what I was talking about in my last blog. I don't even consider him family anymore because he needs to learn how to grow up and treat women as equals. Men like this piss me the hell off and I don't tolerate it. Yesterday he put his hand in my face, and I stabbed him with a spatula. He stopped after this happened because he was afraid I actually pierced skin. Now I don't condone violence, but you have to do what you have to to defend yourself.

If anyone is ever going through situations like this or worse, you should get help. My mother is too protective of her precious first born to do anything about it, but you don't have to put up with it.

And remember, when someone does something ridiculous, always call them out on it and remember, "C'mon, Seriously?!"
