my thoughts/ observations:

–anti-abuse as Nirvana’s Rape Me was anti-rape

–starts w/ Rihanna: “Just gonna stand there and watch me burn. That’s alright because I like the way it hurts.”
women have to resort to self-mutilation after abuse? Sometimes, yes. Women think it’s their fault.

–guy hits wall next to woman and then they start feverishly kissing. SO not realistic. that is a scary situation.

–credit to Eminem for rapping about the truths of domestic abuse: the promises to never hurt again; the feelings between two people that often make it difficult to get away; the patterns

–star Megan Fox donated her acting fee to Sojourn, a shelter for abused women source: Women and Hollywood

if you or a friend are in an abusive relationship:
