One day that tiny baby will be a big shark able to rip people to shreds
most blacktip reef sharks are no more than 5.5ft long when mature. not only that, blacktip reef sharks are timid and shy, with no fatal human attacks documented. don’t comment stuff like this on my posts, save it for another post and stay off mine. thanks
So when do you think it’s ok to hit women with an open palm?
“When they won’t shut the fuck up 😎”
Sean Connery, a strong believer of the pimp hand lol.
I note they cut it off before she finished: At the time of the review, he’d been married 31 years without a complaint. Sean and his wife have now been married 43 years.
That doesn’t really matter though in terms of what he said being outrageous.
A not-insignificant amount of Sean Connery’s character as a person is “I fucking hate reporters and will say just about anything” btw.
She was asking about a previous interview where he had said something similar and even implied for him to retract the statement (like.. giving him the opportunity)…. only for him to double down.
Also, I already posted this as well but…
“PLAYBOY: How do you feel about roughing up a woman, as Bond sometimes has to do?
CONNERY: I don’t think there is anything particularly wrong about hitting a woman–although I don’t recommend doing it in the same way that you’d hit a man. An openhanded slap is justified–if all other alternatives fail and there has been plenty of warning. If a woman is a bitch, or hysterical, or bloody-minded continually, then I’d do it. I think a man has to be slightly advanced, ahead of the woman. I really do–by virtue of the way a man is built, if nothing else. But I wouldn’t call myself sadistic. I think one of the appeals that Bond has for women, however, is that he is decisive, cruel even. By their nature women aren’t decisive–“Shall I wear this? Shall I wear that?”–and along comes a man who is absolutely sure of everything and he’s a godsend. And, of course, Bond is never in love with a girl and that helps. He always does what he wants, and women like that. It explains why so many women are crazy about men who don’t give a rap for them.”
Regardless of why he has repeatedly said it’s okay hit women who wont shut up… I’m not okay with it.
oh yeah i totally forgot he was bond.
that explains just about everything else about this.
That era of bond is…. hard to watch tbh.
Yeah, Connery is a relic from that aspect of the 60s that glorified sexism and racism. Not only that but he’s had this opinion for years and doesn’t seem to have changed it
And people are baffled when I say my favourite Bond was Roger Moore
Honestly, I can kinda see where Sean is coming from. Obviously, I don’t think being violent to women is okay…especially if they’ve done nothing to deserve it. But if she’s being an insufferable, toxic cunt and/or abusive or manipulative, don’t put up with it. Put that bitch in her place!
I’m sure my abuser probably considered me pretty “insufferable” and that I “provoked him” during the times when he gave me some open hand hits to the face.
So nah, I’m gonna say fuck that.
It’s one thing if a woman is physically bullying you and/or you need the right to defend yourself but saying it’s okay “when they deserve it” especially when Sean’s context is “they wont shut up” at its core… No. No thanks.
I never said I agree with him. Hitting a woman when not in self-defence is obviously going a bit too far. And in your case, I don’t think you deserved it at all. I’ve been following you enough to know you’re a good person and you’re definitely not insufferable or abusive etc. so yeah, your abuser’s a prick and I hope HE’S the one who got what he deserved.
All I’m saying is if a woman’s being genuinely abusive and toxic, don’t let her get away with it. If a man can’t do that to his girlfriend, then she shouldn’t be allowed to do the same to him. Because you know…
I just don’t know why so many of you are changing the talking point. He literally said that when women won’t stop trying to have the last word, it’s okay to hit them. Like… there is no defense in that.
i feel like you do know why.
You think she’s gonna finally have a break through or no?
I don’t know why you guys can’t just reblog with some real commentary instead of being annoying. I feel like I do know why though.
Bri: Hey don’t hit women
yall: BUH BUH BUH WHAT IF
To be honest, the replies are freaking me out. It’s gross.
This whole thread is really gross. They keep moving the goal posts, so it’s “you can hit women in self-defense!” instead of “you can hit women when they annoy you”
I’m a firm believer in legitmate self defense for any gender, men included, but jesus christ, THIS AIN’T IT.
Just dont fucking hit people if you can possibly help it.
No what ifs necessary. Not appropriate on this thread
“Shyness and introversion are just narcissistic” you ever like think before typin shit
Who even wrote that???
Got an ask saying pretty much just that once lol, plus there are a few people I’ve heard say it. I guess the justification is you’re making people uncomfortable by not being social, which I get, but at the same time I can’t… help it really??????
