Woman believes boyfriend cheating, Rips off testicles

[Cash_thatswhatiwant]

Helen Hodge, 34, was accused of mangling Billy Duncan's privates with her bare hands after accusing him of cheating on her.

Traumatised Billy, 49, was rushed to hospital where doctors carried out emergency surgery to save his maimed wedding tackle.

Last night a source said the alleged attack happened at Dundee fan Billy's flat in the city in the early hours of Monday after he had been out celebrating his side's Challenge Cup final win.

The insider said: "Helen started accusing him of carrying on with other women.

"He just wanted to sleep though so she started hitting him around the head and face.

"He told her to quit it and demanded she get out the flat.

"Billy was only wearing his underpants at this stage.

"Helen grabbed his testicles and pulled them as hard as she could.

"Eventually he managed to get her off him and chucked her out the flat."

But horrified Billy later looked down and realised he was bleeding heavily.

The source added: "His scrotum had been ripped open and his testicles were dangling by his legs. There was blood all over the flat.

"Billy tried to stop the bleeding with a towel. He didn't know what to do so he called his wee brother Darren.

"When he arrived and saw what had happened he called the police and ambulance straight away."

Last night Helen - who was released without charge - denied she was to blame for the horror injury.

Helen - who has a three-year-old son with Billy - said: "He'd accused me of doing stuff before to him but has never been able to prove it. He probably did it to himself or the woman he's been with has.

"I'll admit there was some pushing and shoving going on but I didn't touch his testicles.

"I've forgotten what his b***s even look like. He's not been near me for months."

1. Um

Never mind. I better not say anything.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

2. That seems kind of harsh.

[proteus_lives]

3. OUCH.

If she did it, that psycho-hose beast needs a trip to the clink.

[UndertheOcean]

6. If a man did something horrible like that to a woman ....

would you dare say something as stupid as "If he did it ... " in here .

Yeah , ripping your own balls off with your bare hands is very likely.

[Fleshdancer]

14. weren't you the DUer who decided Polanski couldn't be a rapist because of his movies?

I think saying "if she did it" or "if he did it" is far more logical than assuming someone couldn't have raped because you like his artistic output.

[aikoaiko]

19. That is some good ownage right there.

[UndertheOcean]

27. Only for feeble minded people who can't stay on topic , and who don't understand

that "Ad hominem" attacks are not valid logical arguments.

I may have said a few days ago that my cat can talk , that has no bearing whatsoever to the argument I am making right now , in this thread.

I am wasting my time here trying to explain what should be evident to anyone with average intelligence.

[omega minimo]

90. that's not "ad hominem"

that's reading the not-so-hidden message in a trail of doo doo.

[UndertheOcean]

92. which is ? enlighten me with thine wisdom

[spiritual_gunfighter]

109. Yeah it was you that said that about Polanski

so I guess I cant take you seriously.

[UndertheOcean]

22. So your argument is so weak , you had to change the subject .... I said I will not discuss the

Polanski matter anymore in here , and I will stick to that promise.

Stay on topic.

[Cash_thatswhatiwant]

26. because you know you were wrong for defending a rapist?nt

[Whisp]

54. oh,talking about Polanski... I';ve noticed on CNN he is

said to have had 'sex with a 13 year old'.

sorry, rape is not sex you fucking moranic CNN twits. *snaps pencil in half with an angry glare

87. how obvious do you need to be?

94. Can you put yourself on Ignore so the rest of us can't see you?

[DemBones DemBones]

99. Here's a story about a guy ripping his own testicles off:

A LEGAL drug known as 'meow meow' led one lad to rip off his own SCROTUM, police said today.
The lad hallucinated for 18 hours and mutilated himself because he believed centipedes were crawling over his body and biting him.

Cops warned people to stay away from the drug Mephedrone which is sold legally on the internet as PLANT FERTILISER.

Its chemical formula is one molecule different to ecstasy and as such dealers are claiming is not a controlled substance.

She's an abuser and there is no excuse or reason for that behavior.

57. not funny.

you would not DARE to laugh if it was a woman that was assaulted in a similar way.

64. I'm laughing at the poster, knucklehead.

Meanwhile, I'm walking funny just thinking about this.

[Canuckistanian]

55. "Monkey steals the Peach"

Hmmm... I wasn't taught that one in Judo class, nor did I see it in any of my Karate or Jiu-jitsu books.

Maybe it's in "Man Hater for Dummies".

[TicketyBoo]

112. Nope.

It's from the book Ninja Mind Control.

http://www.amazon.com/Ninja-Mind-Control-Ashida-Kim/dp/...

I doubt there's a book entitled Man Hater for Dummies. It's pretty instinctual, I think.

[The Straight Story]

7. Sadly, some will say domestic violence against men is ok/ funny (like prison rape)-men's forum?

Nah, too controversial.....

[HughBeaumont]

25. I wouldn't be one of those people.

I was in a "reverse" domestically violent relationship (really shouldn't say that, because it DOES happen to men more than people think) and it sucked. Good thing I got out, because who would America believe if I defended myself? Who would anyone believe if I told them SHE was assaulting ME?

[The Straight Story]

31. Been there myself sadly, and just don't like to talk about it :( (nt)

[JonQ]

74. No way, if men got their own forum surely they would just make jokes

like about how domestic abuse and rape against women is hilarious. You know, in stark contrast to the sensitivity and empathy shown for men who are victims of spousal abuse and rape on here.

That's why this post has nothing but harsh condemnation of the woman involved, sympathy for the man and a complete absence of jokes.

[omega minimo]

84. Who will say that?

[Toucano]

122. SICK SICK SICK society!

Do the people who joke about mutilation of a man's genitals NOT have sons or nephews or ANY males they could relate to?

I can't imagine who could read this story and think "there must be a joke in there somewhere".

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

8. The balls' in her court.

[UndertheOcean]

9. Wow ? That monster was not even charged ? typical.

If a woman accuses a man of hitting her , even with no battery evidence on her body he is sent right away to jail .

[Cash_thatswhatiwant]

13. Only men can abuse, dontchakno

[Fleshdancer]

16. Can you back that statement up with facts? n/t

[UndertheOcean]

18. The OP says that she was released without being charged

[ohheckyeah]

10. She didn't really deny it

with any vehemence, did she? I see jail time in her future...rightly so.

[UndertheOcean]

12. She was realesed without charge !!!! read the OP.

Unless they can charge her later ? but with the evidence how could they release her the first time.

[ohheckyeah]

34. I'm not surprised they didn't charge her at that moment.

But if they do any investigating and she was the person he was with just prior to the injury, she will be charged.

I read the OP, thanks for the tip though.

[TicketyBoo]

113. The linked article says

he's saying he doesn't remember what happened.

I can see two different explanations for this: one, he doesn't want to send the mother of his child to jail; or, two, and in my opinion the most likely explanation, he was too drunk to really remember exactly what happened (so he's telling the truth when he says he doesn't remember). I mean, if he was so out of it after "celebrating" the previous night to realize that he needed medical attention, and, instead, called his younger brother, can't you see that as a possible scenario?

[TheCowsCameHome]

11. She looks like she could tear the nuts off of a brass elephant.

Shouldn'ta messed with her, Billy...............

[snagglepuss]

50. Truer words have nevr been spoken. One can only wonder what he saw in her.

[DemBones DemBones]

96. We haven't seen him, have we?

Yet you assume he "could have done better " just because he's a man?

[TheCowsCameHome]

108. She looks old enough to be his grandmother. His pic is there, too.

[TicketyBoo]

114. He's actually

15 years older than she is, according to the article.

[DemBones DemBones]

97. That doesn't prove she attacked Billy.

Innocent until proven guilty, remember? And nobody is ever guilty because s/he looks like s/he could have done it.

[etherealtruth]

15. What the hell is wrong with people here today ...

Joking about gruesome violence .... mocking/joking about poverty .... perhaps I have no sense of humor today, but I "gotta" admit, I DON'T WANT to find this stuff funny!

[UndertheOcean]

20. +1000

[dana_b]

44. it's not funny

just because this man's testicles were injured and not say his arm or leg, people find it funny to make bad jokes. Yes, I do have a sense of humor if something is truly funny - this is not.

[timtom]

68. "Gallows" humor has always been with us.

[JonQ]

77. I've yet to read a story on here of a woman being abused by a male SO

mutilated even, where people joked about it.

[timtom]

102. So, what about the boy who jumped in the lake in Florida,

and had his arm bitten off by a gator?

While he did something stupid (who didn't at 18?), DUers dogpiled on with stupid humor and excoriation.

And he will be without an arm the rest of his life.

Gallows humor, like tragedy (Greek tragedy, that is), serves society as a means to rid oneself of the horror.

[Toucano]

123. This is beyond gallows humor, I think.

If the sexes of the story were reversed and a man mutilated a woman's genitals, I don't think ANYONE would feel compelled to make a wisecrack.

[anneboleyn]

70. I don't find it funny either. It is in fact seriously fucked up. This woman will also abuse animals

and children -- if the studies are at all true about people who exhibit violence in this way. Sociopath. She was NOT protecting herself from domestic violence. She was the perp, and she acted in a sick and sadistic way by beating this man and then ripping his genitalia. Everyone in here would be screaming if a man mutilated a woman in this brutal way. This woman is clearly a threat -- violent and sadistic. And also, judging by her picture, a real class act.

[etherealtruth]

72. That's how I feel ...

The gender of the perpetrator and victim have nothing to do with it. When a man mutilates a woman it is not funny ... when a woman mutilates a man it is not funny. Violence does not lend itself to humor.

[JonQ]

76. Well it's like the same way people make jokes when a woman gets beaten by her boyfriend

Ha, I guess she won't burn his dinner again, or now she won't talk during the superbowl.

Oh wait, those jokes are not acceptable. Anyone who says such a thing gets their post removed immediately and likely banned. There is no humor at all in physically harming a woman.

I guess it must be a double standard.

[omega minimo]

86. No, it's not a "double standard." This presentation of this story is from a tabloid

from another culture with different language and customs and a bizarre smirking photo of the accused and a weird shot of the bloke who doesn't want to prosecute.

Fuck your "double standard."

The story is serious. The presentation including "rips off testicles" BS belongs in the Lounge.

[Tab]

17. "Wedding tackle"??

He needs a new lure.

[Sheltiemama]

42. That's what I'm calling it from now on.

God love the English.

[Warren DeMontague]

73. That article reads like it was written by Austin Powers.

[RedCloud]

82. That's it! Off with her head.

[RedCloud]

83. It's a fishing story: She grabbed his rod and tried to cast straight off into the river.

[aikoaiko]

21. An Atlanta Braves fan in Dundee? RED FLAG!

[Warren DeMontague]

23. That's just nuts.

Well, someone had to say it.

[Robb]

63. Quit hornin' in on my schtick!

...I think I was going to post, "Aw, nuts!"

[DearAbby]

24. Owwww

[DemoTex]

28. Helen Hodge was a cute baby, too ..

Then ..


Now ..

[devilgrrl]

56. +1 x 10,000,000

[HughBeaumont]

29. Released without charge. Amazing.

What sort of charges would a man get if he ripped a woman's breast off? Probably at least 3 to 5.

But hey, it's PERFECTLY OK to tear a man's genitals off. It's even FUNNY now. Absolutely Amazing.

[left coaster]

38. Yeah, you're right..

We really know how to nip domestic violence against women in the bud, here in this country...


On average 3 women are killed by their domestic partner EVERY DAY, in the US. The number of women physically assaulted, often brutally, runs in the thousands per year. Do you really want to play the comparison game here?

This is a horrible crime of domestic violence, and in this case the victim happens to be male.. it's not ok, period.


I notice a story like this gets a hell of a lot more attention on DU, than any regarding violence against women. No surprise there, either.

[HughBeaumont]

58. Um, where am I playing it?

Doesn't matter what bathroom they go to, mutilation is mutilation and she should be charged with such, not let off the hook because of some stupid "just desserts" numbers excuse. Please don't give me that it's the "correct" thing to think "well, he's a man so he likely deserved it".

We don't know how to nip domestic violence PERIOD in the bud.

[TicketyBoo]

115. Yeah.

I notice a story like this gets a hell of a lot more attention on DU, than any regarding violence against women. No surprise there, either.

It's the "man bites dog" syndrome. More newsworthy than the more common violence against women.

[flvegan]

30. "He probably did it to himself..."

Ohhh, no no no, I don't think so.

[Dead_Parrot]

37. What you said

No no no no no no, lots more no, with a "Hell no!" on the end.

Cut your own arm off? Gritty determination.
Self immolation? Dedication.
Rip your own nuts off? Fuck that.

[LeftyMom]

78. Freakier shit has happened.

[TicketyBoo]

116. Oh, my.

Now that is just nasty!

That's one hazard of masturbation I hadn't heard about before!

[varelse]

32. Domestic violence - the guy reads like a typical domestic abuse victim

I'm glad the surgeons were able to repair the horrendous damage to his body. I hope someone can persuade him to press charges against the woman and testify at her trial.

Surgeons managed to save both of his testicles during the operation at Ninewells Hospital, Dundee, on Monday.

Billy - who has been in a relationship with Helen for seven years - was allowed home yesterday lunchtime.

The source added: "Billy is really embarrassed about the whole thing and wants to try to forget about it. He's now telling the police he can't remember what happened as he doesn't want Helen charged for the sake of her wee boy."

[dixiegrrrrl]

36. I liked this part " He called his wee brother Darren".

[Warren DeMontague]

39. Yeah, is that normal usage for a news story?

Or was some British wag making a funny?

[Dead_Parrot]

40. Scottish colloquialism

"Wee" means little (ie, He called his younger brother Darren). Pretty much all Brits will understand it, so there's no need to paraphrase the quote for a UK readership.

[graywarrior]

60. Yeah, that stood out over everything else. What the hell is that?

[cadmium]

41. Sounds like heroic work by the National Health Service socialized medicine nt

[undeterred]

43. That's a good tactic for someone who is being raped,

if she can do it. Really nasty way of getting revenge.

[Mz Pip]

45. Seems like just getting

a new boyfriend would have been a better idea.

Seems odd that she wasn't charged. That's pretty heavy duty assault.

[spanone]

46. ouch my balls

[snagglepuss]

49. I don;t even own a pair and they're hurtin".

[corpseratemedia]

47. maybe he wasn't cheating, maybe she's an abuser

abusers can make any excuse - and they like to say things like "they probably did it to themselves."

He should not be going back to her, her statements are no different than a male abuser.

If I were this man's sister, and I knew she'd committed this act....I'd try to get her jailed or committed!

[snagglepuss]

53. +1

[etherealtruth]

67. ... or maybe he was cheating ....

... either way she is a violent abuser.

[anneboleyn]

71. amen. The fact that she was beating his face before mutilating his testicles -- she is an abuser.

And abusers always have great excuses about how the other person "made" them angry.

[Whisp]

52. send her up to jail, that is disgusting.

as disgusting as a man ripping a woman's breasts off, or similar.

put her away, she's a dangerous fucking idiot.

[Canuckistanian]

59. Wow

I've been in a few bars at 3:00 in the morning. But I think I'd give this one a pass.

You can stop the broad-brushing bullshit now.

[HipChick]

101. It's not the first time this has happened in the UK,in the last case

they could not re-attacked his balls..

and she got 2yrs in prison

[TicketyBoo]

120. I would think that

they would not need to be "re-attacked." One attack was plenty, evidently.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

104. Another tabloid story

:yawn:

[Hekate]

105. This is just...wrong. >shudder< I see prison in her future, if on police investigation she did this

I mean, she's out now, but I'm sure the cops are doing a thorough check into her life as we speak (or post, whatever).

Hekate

[comtec]

107. LOL Not a CHANCE!

He's not pressing charges, too embarrassed to admit he was beat up "by a girl" or some bullshit like that.
all that's going to happen is some inappropriate jokes, and feminists on this board are going to dance around singing "yay his balls got ripped off! One for the gals!"

This person will get off completely scott free.

There is no justice ever for men who are beaten by their lovers.
It simply isn't done to admit that a man is beaten up by a female.

That is the flip side of this patriarchal system the feminists always ignore.

If you're on the wrong side (as MOST men actually are) you are 5 kinds of fucked.
You can NOT show emotions
you can NOT admit to bein g beaten up, ever, by anyone (100000x true if it's a woman)
you MUST try to get the most money and toys
and if you fail to adhere to all 3 rules at once, you ARE a failure as a man.

Yay patriarchal systems, where men are on top (LOL)

Mind you, I am happy to let women run things. The world WAS a more peaceful place then. Matriarchal societies are/were generally very peaceful.

[PeaceNikki]

111. Again, I am one of "the feminists"

And your implication that we "feminists" dance and sing and cheer this type of thing on is way off base.

[etherealtruth]

117. Exactly!

[comtec]

121. not as off base as either of us would like to think

i've become increasingly mortified by the things SOME of the feminists on here say and think.
men hunting is perfectly legal, extra points for men who are trying to live up to the feminist expectation.

I don't know what it is, but in the last year they (and i admit it's a small very vicious minority) have gotten increasingly verbal and cruel.

There is no right that any man can do it seems.

Attacking the men who are trying to be genuinely sensitive is not helping the sexist problem. We are attacked by the MEN who see us as too panty-waist and we;re attacked by feminists for just being men, we can't win.

what's the point?
for me it's how I was brought up. it's too ingrained in who I am. I will never be MANLY, and it seems i'll never be accepted or acknowledged by the left either.

im in a no-man's zone... literally.

forgive me if im rather sharp in my criticism, but it does bear out as true on this board it seems.

[PeaceNikki]

124. I beg to differ.

And find it ironic that you paint "feminists" with the same broad brush with which you do not wish to be painted.

Most feminists are not "man-haters" and it's really sad that a few (here on DU?) have given you that perception.

[Sanity Claws]

118. That is one tough looking broad

She looks a lot older than 34. Drugs and alcohol can do that.
She said, "he'd accused of doing stuff before to him but has never been able to prove it." That's not what one says when they were falsely accused. That's what one says when they've been able to fuck over someone's mind pretty bad.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

119. And she smokes. Steals his balls AND

gives him second-hand smoke.

Beyatch.

No mercy for the smoker.

[cbayer]

125. Locking

Seems there is not much more to say about this at this point, and it is degenerating at points.
