I guess it's only a one way thing

I guess "battered husband syndrome" aint an excuse for killing someone thats abused you for twenty years. I guess its only a one way thing, or maybe not. Its such a blurred line.

Anybody in an abusive relationship has the choice to leave or not. Yes I know it's never that easy but it is the truth.

Early in their relationship Wild resumed an affair with a former boyfriend, and called Sherna "a weak little bastard" for tolerating her infidelity.
She also made him change his surname, banned him from seeing friends or family, forbade him from sleeping in their bed or using the toilet at home and controlled all his money - despite the fact that Sherna was the sole breadwinner

She needed killing

Only if you cant stand up for yourself - those guys only pick on natural victims.

Having said that - the guy couldn't stand up to his missus.

yeah - He's going to hate the next 10 years.

Go on get started. I want to hear opinions on this. I find it funny the whole sexism debate. It seems to me that it is not about equality anymore but retalitory inequality.

Not quite the same thing but anyway..

Was sitting on the front step at my buddies place at about 5 am eating some snacks, he lives behind "hope bro's", in wellington. When this solid looking ugly woman comes out the back door..

Turns out this solid looking ugly woman is actually NZ's top drag queen, and "she" was exiting the rear door because there was a small European man that would not leave her alone, that wanted to take her home and love her...

I couldn't figure out why "she" didn't just drop that act and bash the little cunt..

Lets not hide behind smoke and mirrors mate... What has your missus been doing to you?

Or is it just that you hate females?
