Joy Behar says it's okay for women to beat up their husbands! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

brownie87 · 08-31-2009, 11:15 AM

Comedien Joy Behar says she believes it is more than okay for women to beat the crap out of their men, because, as she puts it, "it keeps men on their toes and shows we're not wallflowers!" She's against domestic violence against women at the hands of men, but thinks domestic violence against men at the hands of women is a good thing. I don't think domestic violence of ANY kind is a good thing, so this is seriously messed up!

I'm totally not surprised she'd say something like that. Would someone PLEASE put a muzzle on her???

what a hypocrite

I wouldn't be caught dead watching The View.

MickeyMac · 08-31-2009, 01:24 PM

Any kind of abuse from a man or a woman is not ok. What the f**k is wrong with anybody who feels that abuse is alright?

Unless it is an act of self-defense, it is not OK to raise your fist to your fellow human beings.

lol oh how do you know she was being serious? I doubt it. I can imagine them on the view saying that and laughing or something. I wouldn't take it seriously. Then again, I don't watch the show. Who knows.

There can be no love where there is domination.

I'm with you there. Why this crappy show has lasted over 12 years is a complete mystery to me.

Do you have a script or a video clip of this incident?

It's hard to make an informed opinion without seeing it first-hand and getting the context everything is used in.

MickeyMac · 08-31-2009, 05:56 PM

No offense to any fans of the View here, but frankly I find this show and the hosts nothing but bad taste.

Exactly, that's what I was trying to get at. I think when people dislike a show or person or whatever, it's easy to go "ohh, they just said something bad! hatehatehatehate." I've only watched the show a couple of times, but what I got from her personality is that she's just a huge wise ass. I don't think many people would say something like that on national tv and mean it, because obviously they'd get crap for it.
