I've never been tempted to downvote something solely on the basis of my disagreeing with it, until now.

My suggestion is that instead of reaching for the downvote, that you click the link and read what "Girl Writes What" has to say.

Though admittedly a little long-winded, she raises some very interesting points.

Girl Writes What says almost nothing but terrible tripe. Like, that time she advocated domestic abuse as a way of relieving emotional and sexual tension in a relationship [1].

At your link, I don't see her advocating domestic violence in any way shape or manner. I do see her describing one form of it, and then citing the first person to open a domestic violence shelter saying that one form is prevalent. That is a testable claim.

You should test it, instead of intentionally mischaracterizing her argument, and then labeling that argument as tripe.
