We gotta be better....
As a brother with a domestic conviction on my record (F strangulation, M assault on a female), I'm not of the opinion that the woman is innocent at all. My own experience has shown me women can be aggressors...
At the same time, I'm not giving Majors a break from this. As men, we owe it to ourselves to behave responsibly, and the evidence showed a likely pattern of abuse with this woman. When we have that, ain't nobody to blame but ourselves----->this is the first time he got caught, but it's not the first time he abused a woman. And it's very rarely the first time, when you get caught...
I'm only gonna speak from the male perspective of someone who has gone thru this, too. He's gotta grow from this. And he can, he has to. If he isn't honest with anyone else he better be honest yo the man in the fukking mirror, because that man knows what he's done...
As soon as he cleans himself up and takes accountability for himself, he can fix his reputation. It'll take awhile, it's a long road. There are people affiliated with the mother of my children, who I've had minimal interaction since my own incident, who still view me in that abuser light, and it's okay. He's not repairing himself for those people who will always view him this way. He's gotta do it because he wants to be a better Jonathan Majors...
His career may never hit the peak he was on pace for, and he's certainly on ice right now. Time heals though, he heals himself he can come back to a semblance of a career in his 40s. Good luck to the brother...
