Calling your stupid, evil, wrong, moronic words about men who beat up women “honest” doesn’t launder them, or make them any less stupid or wrong.
When you talk about “the part” women play in their abuse, or say that they should take care not “provoke,” you’ve just shown your hand. You’re saying there can be MITIGATING CIRCUMSTANCES when it comes to violence against women. That sometimes it’s justified, and women can CAUSE it. You know, they have a “part” in it.
Good men simply do not think this way.
You may want to check your facts, Stephen A Smith never stated he hit a woman, and categorically stated that it is never acceptable.
