False equivalencies are false equivalencies.
So if Sana was silent and mucking about earlier in the day with him then it’s alright to assault her. So by that logic a prostitute cannot claim rape because she’s a prostitute.
There are two different scenarios
1) Sana hitting Sid all day.Pulling his hair.Hitting him with chappals. Then hugging him as well.
2) Sid threatening Sana the way he did
One scenario doesn't justify the other. Sid is not justified because Sana was behaving violently herself. Neither Sana is justified in her behaviour. Both Sana and Sid in their own scenarios are wrong.If we calling Sana as a victim in second scenario then we are ignoring the first scenario in which she was violent herself. Violence of any degree in any relationship cant be taken lightly. Whether violence is of a higher degree or lower degree.
