Jada Pinkett Smith Demonized, Unfairly?/ How Not to Defend Your Woman

When is a woman responsible for the actions of a man? When he cheats? If he decides to walk up on stage and slap a man over a supposed slight? If you didn't know, Chris Rock made a lame joke about Jada's hair or lack thereof. Will Smith appeared to laugh. Jada did not. Without warning,  Will walked up on stage and slapped Chris Rock. People in the audience laughed. Jada laughed as well. The supposition is this incident was an unscripted joke until it wasn't. Suddenly, a shocked audience dug up a two-year-old Red Table Talk starring Will, Jada, and infidelity. And now, the reason Will lost all his mind was because of Jada. Jada made him do it. Somehow she was responsible for his lack of control. She was responsible for his narcissism. With a slap heard worldwide, Will Smith lost all agency for his behavior. Some Black women applaud Will Smith's overreaction. They say he was defending his woman. Was he, though? How did Will's slapping of Chris Rock honor Jada? She didn't like a lame dud of a joke. So... Will behaving like an asshole was not chivalrous. It was an egotistical action that did nothing but drag Jada through the mud. These are my thoughts. What are yours?
