Some Thoughts About Intimate Partner Violence

Here is an item from Prof. Martin Fiebert's bibliography - which currently numbers 343 entries and draws upon an aggregate sample size of over 440,850. That's a pretty damn good aggregate sample size, don't you think so?
Archer, J. (2006).  Cross cultural differences in physical aggression between partners: A social-role analysis.  Personality & Social Psychology Review, 10, 133-153.  (A review article which suggests that "women's empowerment is associated with lower victimization rates from their partners."  Greater individualism and empowerment by women, however, are also associated with higher perpetration rates.)
Note the passage which I have highlighted in boldface. In the first part, it is saying that if you are more powerful, people are less likely to mess with you. Well, I'm glad that wiser folk than me are conducting academic studies to recover such arcane truths from obscurity and make them available for all to know. In the second part, the sentence is saying that power corrupts. Yes, that is what it is saying. It seems that if women become more individuated and empowered, some of them will commit more physical aggression against their intimate partners than they would otherwise. That is what "perpetration" means - that the perpetrator is the aggressor. So the lesson we draw, within this micro-context at least, is that women are inherently no less aggressive than men.

If you want to see the most recent edition of Fiebert's bibliography (with 343 entries), go to the following and click on the link which says "Assaults by Women on their Male Partners". The document will download as a text file:

All right. As it now stands, based on Fiebert's bibliography and other lines of evidence, we may conclude that women perpetrate at least as much intimate partner violence as do men. I say "at least", because there is reason to suspect that women are worse than men in this department. But since I am not greedy, and since I don't want to look like a misogynist bent on casting women in the worst possible light, I will conservatively settle for a 50-50 split. I will not state categorically that women ARE more violent, only that they might be. However, I have inserted the qualifying phrase "at least" because, to me, the quest for truth is ultimately more important than not seeming misogynistic. In the end, this gives me the best of both worlds. In a textual way, it clears me from undue imputations, and yet it leaves the field open to anything the quest for truth might ultimately reveal.

To hear the feminists talk, you'd think that men are pummeling innocent women everywhere to enforce "the patriarchy" like squadristi enforcing Mussolini's regime. Such is the world according to feminism. It is what they want you to believe - they are banking on it! They have poisoned the public mind with this story for many years and made it part of the cultural ambient, so our task becomes, somehow, to undo all of that. It won't be easy.

It will not do to assert categorically that men, as a class, are oppressing women, as a class, in the realm of intimate relations. It will equally not do to assert that men in such relations are initiating violence any more than women are. The evidence will not support any of this - it is not certifiably factual. Yes, we know that such statements are commonly made and taken for granted by millions of naive people, but those millions are supporting a grotesque lie and a towering intellectual crime. They may be forgiven inasmuch as they were misled and deprived of the tools to effect their own intellectual liberation. But if they stubbornly persist in upholding the lie even when the full story is given, they lose their claim to indulgence. As for those who originally conceived and propagated the lie, indulgence is at no point warranted.

As I never tire of repeating, the intimate partner violence narrative is the crown jewel of feminism's anti-male talking points. To undermine this narrative, eventually to the point of collapse, will damage the feminist regime more than anything else I can think of. So let's get cracking, shall we?

BTCC: Rob Austin Racing 2013 British Touring Car Championship season review


By Tarek Ramchani and Johan Laubscher

Rob Austin and his WIX Racing team (Rob Austin Racing) had a sensational 2013 season in the British Touring Car Championship. The only Audi team in the field showed great performances all season long. The Audi A4 NGTC is now a race winning machine, after a maiden victory at Rockingham and an amazing pole position at Knockhill. The team also faced a lot of bad luck and some hard moments, yet Rob Austin was always able to bounce back. Credits also to the "Sherman" fans, massive support for RAR, clearly one of the most popular efforts in the demanding BTCC.

The season review has been compiled from the 2013 Audi Motorsport Blog Weekend Round Up posts. Each round has been added as was seen in the individual Weekend Round Up posts during 2013, which can be accessed via the links throughout the review below.

Special thanks to our friend Phil Laughton from Phil Laughton Photography, for his great support throughout the BTCC season. Great photo coverage of Rob Austin Racing in the BTCC all season long.

Round 1: Brands Hatch (Indy)

The 2013 BTCC got underway at Brands Hatch. The pair of Audi A4 NGTC cars from WIX Racing (Rob Austin Racing) showed good pace during testing, and Rob Austin continued this good form by qualifying in the top ten. Austin chose to use his soft tires for the first race and he rocketed from seventh to second after the first sequence of corners. He then took the lead and led the first lap of the new BTCC season. Ultimately the soft tires gave in and Austin finished in third. Race two and three saw DNF finishes for Austin with race three seeing a large crash for him. The driver was unharmed and the car has been reported as repairable. Rob’s teammate Will Bratt fought hard and achieved a twelfth and fourteenth.

Round 2: Donington Park

Round two of the British Touring Car Championship was held at Donington Park. Rob Austin Racing completed a brilliant repair job, as they successfully repaired the #13 Audi A4 after a massive crash at Brands Hatch last time out. The Audi team expected to perform well at round two, however issues with their straight-line speed hampered them all weekend long. Ultimately they qualified and finished outside of the top ten in all of the races.

Round 3: Thruxton

Thruxton is the fastest circuit in Britain, and hosted the third round of the British Touring Car Championship. Rob Austin Racing have been plagued by low top speed performance this year. It was evident at Donginton, but even more so at Thruxton. The team struggled for pace and qualified in the lower half of the field. The three races on the day yielded similar results for the team and their Audi A4s, as they were confined to the rear of the grid.

Round 4: Oulton Park

The fourth round of the British Touring Car Championship was held at Oulton Park this weekend. It looked like another tough outing for Rob Austin Racing and their two Audi A4 NGTC race cars. They qualified well down the order with the highest placed RAR Audi in eighteenth. The first race saw both Audis recovering, but they finished outside of the top ten. Rob Austin put in a great drive to grab a top ten in race two, finishing in eighth. The third and final race of the day saw Austin starting third on the reverse grid. He rocketed into the lead and lead half of the race, before being punted out of the lead, he ultimately finished in fifth. His teammate, Will Bratt, came from much further behind and stormed into the top ten finishing in sixth place.

Race two yielded similar results as Austin finished in fourteenth and Bratt eighteenth. During the third and final race of the day Rob Austin was able to finish in eleventh.
