 Posted: Tue Dec 09, 2008 7:54 am Post subject: Crimes against women. Experiences Please |
 |
|
In my short time here, I've witnessed three crimes against women, myself.
I've had female (foreigner) friends who were abused (physically) by korean men while in relationships with those men.
I've known a female foreign teacher who has been attacked by a Korean man.
And, then there are the stories by the Korean women, and young adults, and children.....
____________________________
If you have a story, please share it here.
I'm writing a 'fictional' story for a small paper abroad.
I want to use as many non-fictional sources as I can.
Let 'em rip...
thanks |

| I have several friends in the U.S. who have had crimes committed against them by American men. Do they count or are we only looking to indict Korean men? |

| I give no comment at this time. I pleaded not guilty, and we'll simply let the courts decide. |

| That's a rather intrusive and exploitative question that you're so cavalierly asking. The best example we have of your writing is your post, and given that you're encouraging people to talk about deeply traumatic events in the same way you'd encourage someone to tell an off color joke, no woman in her right mind would think you'd treat the subject with any sensitivity. |

perpetrator's nationality doesn't matter, just the exploit and what happened.... esp., interested in what the cops did (didn't do) in regards to the situation.
In korea: A canadian friend of mine saw a korean woman getting the crap knocked out of her on the street, in the canadian girl's neighborhood.
The girl from the Canadia approached the feuding couple and asked the K guy to stop, because there was a lot of blood and she was worried about the K woman.
The K guy punched the canadian girl and chased her for a block and a half until the Canadian woman locked herself in her neighborhood restaurant.
Her restauarnt friends called the cops.
The cops came and said they would/could do nothing because it was a 'domestic' dispute. This is despite the Canuckian not knowing the K man or his abused wench and the Canuckian chick having physical trama.
Any similar experiences?
I'm trying to ferret out some stories of cops ignoring crimes against women..... or domestic abuse.... and the cops lack of action in Korea. Not neing intrusinve...or whatever the feminist posted earlier.
thanks

| Last year across the hall from my apartment, a drunken yelling guy tried to smash down the door of a woman's apartment for the better part of an hour with a fire extinguisher, while she screamed inside. When the cops finally got there (the police station was a block away after all) I saw through the peep hole that they just politely shooed him away, and he wandered off. Why didn't my trusty 103-year old security guard do anything about it? |

| If you watch K-movies, a lot make scathing references about the inaction of Korean police to domestic disputes. Problem is many posters on this board with limited Korean language skills assume it's condoning the actions when in reality it is a criticism of it. |

Wow, aren't you a pleasant character. You know what would help you out here? If you alienated a group of people well positioned to give you exactly what you're asking for. |

Are you sure this chick is your friend? You certainly don't talk about her like one. |

Anyone else witness chicks getting beat whilst in the Korea?
One night, a few years ago, I was walking through the park when I heard a woman screaming bloody murder.
I ran to see her boyfriend above her pummeling the crap out of her. An old adjumma was ten feet away just watching.
I started yelling at the guy and he immediately took off running with his GF holding his hand all the way to the taxi....
unbelievable |

you're right it is unbelievable - that you'd knowingly admit to the fact that you did nothing more than yell at someone who was physically abusing someone else.
so thought you might come on here and peer into people's lives a bit more? did you go back to the park and get your rocks off after hearing the screams? is that why you are posting this in your not so perfect E?? because it titillates you and you thought perhaps you could have some fun?
you're twisted and sick. find another forum, I'm sure they are out there just for your kind. and if you try and continue this thread I'm going to report it as you really have no business lurking around asking these kinds of questions.  |

You criticize women who defend victims of abuse and women who are victims of abuse. People who physically abuse women are scum, but take a step back and look at your position here: you seem content and even proud to be ignorant of all the systemic causes of patriarchy and abuse. If you are trying to do some good by letting the world know what goes on in this first world nation, that�s a great sentiment, but for god�s sake educate yourself first. It sounds more like you are trying to collect anecdotes to prove a suspicion abuse is actually the fault of the victim. Are you, perchance, cornfed�s sock? |
