Is Rihanna retarded?

The other thing is - she's from a country where violence and abuse against women is an accepted fact of life, so her perception on it is likely to coloured by her upbringing...
 
Not to defend abusers, but there are sometimes certain circumstances where an individual might be entitled to some leniency. We don't know the whole story.

Maybe this Brown guy has been the victim of abuse himself and is completing the psychological circle of it all. Perhaps he truly regrets what he's done, the two truly love each other, and he has begged Rihanna not only for forgiveness, but her help in healing his psychological wounds and her help in defeating his demons. Maybe she's a good enough person with a ton of compassion and empathy and that she can see through her own hurt and see a man who needs help, and she's willing to forgive him and to see him through therapy?

If that's the case, I'd hardly call her a loser. I'd call her better than most of us.

Forgive these blunt words but this is bullshit!

What he did was no "simple" slap to the face.. he has beaten her up! A face like that has to be hit multiple times really hard.. the way a guy fights another guy on the street.

Anyone who does this to another person needs professional help and certainly not from the person he has beaten up so bad. If he makes it through counselling and really has changed then maybe it may be time to get back together and not before that.

I've known women like that who went back to their guys (though none of them were beaten up). They were disrespected by their man, treated like shit and those were not dumb bimbos at all. Highly intelligent women, often beautiful but they kept coming back and you know what most of the time the reason was?

Low self esteem.. the notion that they won't find a better guy or that it wasn't so bad and they deserved it somehow. It is useless to talk them out of it.. lord knows i tried. They have to come to the conclusion themselves.. nothing else will work and in the case of Rihanna i hope she makes it fast and doesn't end up like Whitney Houston.
 
Oh but he's just sooo confident and doesn't give an f what she thinks! Its sooo hot!
 
Why do women refuse to take care of themselves? If a man beats you once, he'll beat you again. That's just men. It's a fact of life about them once they become violent with women. That's what he learned growing up. It's too late for him. It's not too late for her, but she'd rather be a punching bag.

Why do women want love so much that they're willing to have their heads bashed in? What's so great about love? Go out with your girlfriends instead. They're better company, more emotionally supportive, and you can keep all your teeth. If you want sex, that's what batteries are for.

Yes, I'm on the cynical train today, but she's still a fucking moron for returning to her abuser.
 
^More to the point, no matter how "retarded" she is, if she wants sex forget the batteries - she's Rihanna. There will be a queue of guys - hell, probably not just guys.

It will never understand why so many celebrities, female and male, end up with people who are bad for them.
 
I know. She's a particularly imbecilic case because she has so much going for her that her decision defies any sort of logic. She's young. She's extremely pretty. She could have any guy she wanted for sex and I'm sure there are plenty who'd want to date her as well. She has tons of money and resources. She's talented with income potential and she doesn't have children weighing her down. She even has a daddy who appears to be involved in her life.

She's not someone who needs to run for her life because she has no options, no future, and no choices. She's not tied down with kids and no money. She has family. There's no reason for her to stay with this guy, but she loooooves him. :rolleyes: Thus my question, why do women put up with this? Why is looooove so important that it trumps your health and personal safety? You want someone who loves you, go to the pound and get a dog? He'll be devoted forever and all you have to do is give him dog food and water.
 
It just demonstrates that celebrities are normal people too with all their problems.. they just operate on a different financial and social scale (which contributes sometimes to their problems).

I've known pretty girls who had really low self esteem and had trouble picking the right guy even if everybody told them he was bad.

It's not just women, just look at Bear's thread in Misc... There's also men abused by women, men by men and women by women, whether physically, mentally or emotionally, and go back.
 
I always wonder about women like this. Could I go up to her, treat her real nice and sweet, give her attention and then score with her? Because I surely wouldn't beat the snot out of her and appreciate being with her more than that jackass aparently does.

Some women (and men) are attracted to that asshole personality, though.
 
I don't care for her music (and I hate that fucking Umbrella song :scream:) but if she has gone back to him I hope he doesn't hit her again. And if he does, he should be jailed.
