Ain’t this the truth.

The amount of women that think physical violence against their male partners is acceptable or not an issue is disgustingly high.

Is it so hard to teach to not hit people at all?

This is such a stupid thing to inject gender into.

"The amount of men that think physical violence against their female partners is acceptable or not an issue is disgustingly high".......

I think we can all agree that any amount of violence towards a partner is too much. If we wanted to inject gender into the equation statistically women are more likely to be battered by their male partners, who obviously think it's an acceptable thing to do.

How to treat a woman... real good.

"My mum taught me how to treat a woman" is either dumb or creepy

Approaching and treating others like human beings regardless of their sex and gender? Too much to ask?

Agree this is way too gendered.

Teach everyone to behave compassionately in relationships, learn to argue, learn to collaborate, learn to cooperate. Good relationship skills are what everyone needs.

The strongly gendered part is the stand against the manosphere and stand against violence/misogyny.

Also, this isn't just about romantic relationship. I would have really appreciated if anyone I looked up to showed me how to connect with fellow guys/peers.

Honestly, is that what moms are doing? I have not exeprienced it. If anything, both my parents were overly worried by me hitting puberty. No "bees and flowers" talk either, they relied on my school providing that.

No, I got no relationship advice from either of my parents, other than their living examples. Which wasn't very good, as advice.

I also don't see why moms should give it to their sons, and dads to their daughters, exclusively? I suspect what this guy refers to are tropes from song lyrics, which might come from a place of hardship, maybe a mother raising a child without a father. And now I think of it, I heard women sing that also: "my mother told me this about love..."
