Oh yes, women need to understand this isn't okay. ~~Fucking Jesus fucking wept, was this dickwipe trying to win Tone-Deaf Asshole Of The Century award?~~
Edit: okay, I had a visceral reaction to the statement and wasn't being fair to him in how I read it. I think he chose very poor words, but he's obviously not going to be eloquent at a time like that.
The context makes this statement different.
The above is the victim's mother, who begged her not to marry her murderer. She says this after stating she found divorce papers in her daughter car after her death, which led her to believe he killed her because she was planning on leaving him.
The above is a statement trying to help women to avoid brutal men to begin with, not blaming them for being victims. It's saying "if he does this kind of shit, don't put up with it like my daughter did. Get out immediately."
Fair point. I know I'm not alone in being entirely sick of hearing victims get blamed using words just like this, but you're right that it's extremely unlikely he meant it that way.
