Because he was a man, and was expected to just take it. People actually made fun of him until she almost killed him.

I think this scene is absolutely brilliant. It uses humour to shine a light on domestic violence: a terrible issue. Domestic violence is not remotely funny but that doesn't mean that humour can't be used to call attention to it. The ad does that by describing the class as "realistic", meaning that this situation happens in real life, and is not a fantasy. Also, just because the scene is a joke, and includes domestic violence as its subject matter, does not mean that it is claiming that domestic violence is funny. Although the scene is about domestic violence, a real issue, the scene is still fictitious.

Usually it stems from something that's eating at them. It starts seeping out in the form of exaggerated responses to otherwise small things.

Yeah, exactly what Zazi said. In addition though, my first boyfriend when I was 17 flipped his absolute shit at me one night. Why? Cause I'd cooked food for him while he was working overtime and cleaned the place up for when he got home. Apparently that was insulting, cause it apparently was me suggesting he can't do those things himself (lol wat). Of course that was just bull. The real reason as I found out that same evening, was that he hadn't been working overtime. He'd been with another girl, so when he came home to me having done something nice for him, it made him feel really guilty and somewhat panicked, which was then directed at me for having been the one to trigger the guilt. There tends to be more behind people's reactions to things in general than just the specific thing they're reacting to. We weren't born the minute before each thing we experience, after all. :/

That was too realistic I would have thought that was American Dad not Family Guy.

Is this what it’s like to have an abusive father? I wouldn’t know.

[@realHarsh10]

The part where she ask the children to not try to stop the father from beating her is 100% true because then he'll accuse her of inciting children against him and beat her more. The best thing I know is to hide, usually under the bed and hope for it to end sooner. Cowardly, right? Anyway, it's one of the most accurate portrayal of domestic violence I've ever seen.

Seth is neither glorifying or condemning domestic abuse. He's only showing it in a place usually thought of as innocent to say "This actually happens." Feel offended if you want. It won't change a thing.

[@joeyberg5765]

Loki Jotunborn it's more sobering than offensive, at least to me. Different circumstances, but not a far cry from my own experiences as a teenager.

[@juliiouus96]

This is a comedy cartoon, lol. Nothing about it is made to bring social issues to light, they’re just using domestic abuse as a punchline.

[@BReynoldsLilPiff]

@@juliiouus96 South Park is one of the biggest social commentaries out there. I'd rather have real world stuff talked about than a bunch of fart jokes and Conway Twitty.

[@gurvmlk]

@@BReynoldsLilPiff Well that's because South Park episodes (at least those I remember, I haven't watched the show in ages) oftentimes ended with some sort of deliberate message, which is something Family Guy rarely goes for. Even when it does, it usually undermines the lesson it should be teaching at the last second rather than trying to make it actually sound significant or important.
