I didn’t know about this. Can you post the statistics where you got that idea from? I’m genuinely interested in them… if you actually have them.
OTOH I’ll give you that it is true that in TW there are these stereotypes of she being a princess and he being a prince. I’ve even heard that in Chinese culture women tolerate infidelities more than in Western countries.
Basically you’re saying that, of all the nice, decent family men I work with at the office, at least ONE of them was, like, hell yeah, wish that had been ME smashing that bitch’s head into the pavement?
Have you spent too much time working in the parole service or something?
Now we’re getting somewhere. Can you show that this is a reality in Taiwan, and is leading to particular murders, or perform some kind of statistical analysis?
I’d say it’s your responsibility to show that toxic masculinity is really a thing, not mine to show it’s not
It’s a fallacy to say that something is masculine for most of the times it happens it involves a man. There would be a correlation of masculinity and that behaviour if a high number of men showed that behaviour.
I know, but I’ll follow the “toxic masculinity” logic and blame it on women. ALL women, of course, because those who don’t do anything about it are just as guilty.
Oh fear not, there’s a lot of countries in the middle east, africa and asia where the sole role of women is to stay home, pump out as many kids as possible (possibly male) and shut up about it. Saudi Arabia was just the first that came to mind, the whole list would take a while.
the most common filicide scenarios: A father killing a son was the most likely (29.5 percent of cases), a mother killing a son (22.1 percent) follows. A mother was slightly more likely to kill a daughter (19.7 percent of cases) than a father was (18.1 percent). The rarest instances were stepmothers killing either a stepson (0.5 percent) or a stepdaughter (0.3 percent).
There are roughly 3-4 times more cases of domestic assault per capita reported to the police every year in Taiwan compared to HK and Japan. Now, I dont remember reading that the overall crime level in Taiwan is 3-4 times higher of that in Japan or HK, hence there is something odd with the level of domestic violence here.
Now, if the posters here dislike attributing it to a culture of toxic masculinity(I also find this a bit odd term), thats cool. But, the phenomena is still there and its doing the women in Taiwan a diservice to just brush if off as some crazy guy when there clearly is something systemic a bit off in Taiwan.
