Do you think that the reason women are physically hurt more often by males is because they are weaker[,] or are there other reasons?

Definitely not, but it is because of that exact mentality that it is that way.
For some reason, in this society, men are typically the alphas. Men, typically, are perceived to be the larger, stronger, “better”, being. This being said, men let that go to their heads. They blow up that concept and assume that that gives them the right to do as they please with these “lesser” beings (women).
Of course this is a completely biased point of view from a person that has the distinct opportunity to have both a first-hand male and first-hand female experience.

Well, fame shouldn't be an excuse for anything because fame only means that you're known by people by how popular you are. It doesn't matter, you shouldn't put your hands on anybody because you have money.

Why do you think that Dating Abuse is an important topic to discuss?

- Dating abuse is an important topic to discuss because every year, almost 1.5 million high school students experience dating abuse. Dating abuse are taken in many ways. It can be physical, emotional, sexual, verbal, or stalking. Intimate partner violence affects everyone regardless of gender, race or class, but many are still afraid to speak out when they are being abused. Period- #4 ( CaLvin )

Dating abuse has and affect on the people around the individual being abused. I have seen this with my parents and it's not cool.

Sadly, not everyone recognizes dating abuse as a major issue. Many take it as a joke and ignore it. Others do not see the severity of the issue. If anyone is dating, they should be aware of dating abuse.

This is a good topic so that teens can be come aware of what is right and what is wrong in relationships and how they can prevent being one of those who are in abusive relationships.
