36
00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:56,680

37
00:01:56,800 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 2: with a lot of Once you understand what abuse really is, yes,

38
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:08,079
Speaker 2: and the magnitude to what it goes to that right there, man,

39

Speaker 2: can be understood and psychologically reasona way, I don't know

40
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:16,359
Speaker 2: the word for it, but they have studied this long

41
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 2: enough to know the mindset that can cause this type

42
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 2: of behavior in a person.

43
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,440

46
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 2: a whole lot of so you know, you can say

47
00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:38,359
Speaker 2: what you want to say, but man, hold up, waitmen,

51
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,519

54
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 1: the woman will feel like she made the man hit

55
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,800
Speaker 1: her or beat her or abuse her. You know, that's

56

00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 2: women who ain't famous.

65
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 1: Yes, it happens every day, yeah, every single Yeah.

66
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 5: The problem is I don't I don't know when I

67
00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 5: see it, Like if I see a couple, I can't.

68
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 3: Can you see it?

69
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,639
Speaker 5: Can you tell when somebody's going through something or they

70
00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:35,240
Speaker 5: are they hiding?

71
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:39,960
Speaker 4: Women mask it and make I mean see Tina Turner was.

72
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,920
Speaker 1: On stage right with a black eyes that covered in makeup. Yeah,

73
00:03:44,280 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 1: but sometimes you can if the way they talk to

74
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 1: talk to their spouse in public. You know, sometimes it

75
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: can be kind of harsh. You know, you can hear black.

76
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, right now, what I can't do at no stage,

77
00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 2: even before I was famous, I can't see a man

78
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 2: physically beating a woman and not intervene.

79
00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I cannot say.

80
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 2: I stopped the dude in a parking lot and it

Speaker 2: twenty six years old.

85
00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 1: In your time. In growing up in your era and

86
00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 1: our era, men were taught not to put their hands

87
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:30,159
Speaker 1: on a woman.

88
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 3: Period.

Speaker 1: Yeah, mothers and fathers have to tell their daughters, do

94
00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:48,240
Speaker 1: not put your hands on a man.

95
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,039
Speaker 3: I was. I mean I was told that as a

96
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:51,560
Speaker 3: little girl.

97
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 1: Yeah right, And now even more so than ever, you

98
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 1: got to say it because they weren't taught that.

99
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,479
Speaker 3: Right. These young cats ain't talk. They swing it like
