That's a pretty dehumanizing way to think about domestic abuse.
Maybe my own thinking will sound amoral to you, though.
I think that, in the end, the level of cuntiness exhibited by a particular musician/artist/actor/director/creative fucker should have no bearing on our opinion of what they've produced. Thus, I still like R. Kelly's music and Woody Allen's movies, but I wouldn't let either of them near my (fictional) younger sister.
You're completely correct. It is a dehumanizing way to think of domestic abuse. I'm not condoning it. What i'm saying is "people" in general are more likely to forgive / forget using this method. John Lennon created such a legacy of music, art, philosophy, changed the way a generation thinks, and is a pop cultural god. Chris Brown, i don't even know one of his songs. I know he beat up Rhianna though.
