- 'Guy gets caught cheating' video - society and its injustices

Just a short half-rant. Stumbled across this video today that will no doubt go viral, given the amount of attention it’s already received by big sites like ‘The Lad Bible’ and suchlike, and was wholly disgusted with what I saw.
This video manifests the huge injustice of sexism within
society. In case your attention span is particularly low, the male is being brutally
beaten by two women he slept with on the same day, one using a belt, the other
using some form of inanimate object resembling a tube.
Now of course, the man is completely in the wrong for
cheating and leading on these two women, however the women’s response is
totally wrong and unjustified, let alone hugely unfair.
Imagine if it had been the same situation, but two men had
been cheated on by a woman, and they had decided to respond with a similar
level of force to these women. They would have been in jail faster than this
video took to be uploaded. However in the case of it being women, it is hugely
unlikely that any further action will be taken regarding the assault. This may arguably
be due to the man being less likely to inform the police than a woman might be,
however I would question what the police or a judge might say to this anyway.
It’s quite likely that both police and the judiciary would simply call this a
domestic ‘disturbance’ or the likes, when these two women mercilessly beat this
man, to which he didn’t even lift a finger or attempt to defend himself.
Therefore in my opinion, despite the sexism women continue
to face, there are many situations in which men are handicapped due to society’s
morals and values, where women are seemingly ‘above the law’ when assaulting or
harming men.
What’s your opinion?
I agree with you - I saw a similar video which I think was meant to be funny, but actually it was horrible violence from a woman to a man
