"Girls get special treatment"

My opponent stated responded to all my arguments by saying that I have not given enough data. While pro does have the burden of proof, which I have done my best to uphold, Con does have the burden of rejoinder, or response to my arguments. Her above post does not say anything about why my evidence (http://americans-world.org...) was not enough proof, she simply asserts it. It is now too late for her to attempt to disprove my point that more and more women are receiving better treatment and respect. Con also did not respond to the very important argument from the statistics she herself presented that we cannot draw accurate conclusions of how men treat women from the numbers in that poll. Yet, that is what she has done. Her own evidence discredits her. Here is the quote again for your perusal: "However the figures of 1 in 4 women and 1 in 6 men experiencing domestic violence fail to identify patterns of abuse over time and the coercive control which typifies intimate partner violence. Using these statistics to establish a picture of the prevalence of intimate partner violence is therefore not recommended." (http://www.womensaid.org.uk...) I will leave it up to you as the voter to decide if my interpretation is correct. Con in addition failed to address the issue that her statistics of the UK do not necessarily apply to the entire world. Every society is different, and it is not wise to think we can apply one country to all countries. I bring up these dropped arguments because I believe they are key to the round. What have we seen in this debate? Here are the highlights: First, I made a general statement that most girls receive special treatment from men. Con then said that this is not the case because a poll said 45% of women were being abused by their partners. I responded by first pointing out that this is not a majority, and secondly the 45% was 45% of the 1/4 of the women experiencing domestic violence, equaling .5%. Con did not directly respond to this, she pointed out that I had made a mistake, (which I had, but later corrected), and then she brought up domestic violence statistics to disprove me. I returned with saying that they were not applicable because the numbers were not true on the world wide scale. (For example, America's rate is 25%.(http://www.safehorizon.org...)) I also pointed out that her conclusion drawn from the statistic was discredited by the statistic itself (see above). Con then chose not to respond to my points and simply assert I had not proved girls get special treatment. On that note.... 1. Showing that some women do not get special treatment does not disprove the fact that many women do. Con has never directly disproven that most women get special treatment. All she has done is state that I have not proven my point enough and presented facts showing that less than half of the women who have been polled on this topic have experienced abuse. Neither of these directly disprove my position. 2. Using logic, if only 1/4 of the women experience abuse, that leave 3/4 who have not. So it is true that most women are treated well. 3. I have presented evidence (http://americans-world.org...) showing that women have been treated with more and more respect in the past few decades. The situation is getting steadily better. 4. With all the horror stories of the women who have not been treated well getting so much coverage, it becomes more and more in a man's favor to treat women with respect. Please do not misunderstand me. In this debate I have done my best to set aside the pity I feel for my less fortunate sisters and simply deal with the arguments and numbers presented. I request that you would do the same. Even if you are of the opinion that I have not fulfilled my burden of proof, please realize that my opponent has not upheld her burden of rejoinder. Therefore, we are at least tied in that respect. Please consider both of our arguments carefully and vote as you see fit. Thank you for taking time to read our debate! I also thank my opponent for taking time to debate me. I really do appreciate it.
