50%of husbands have hit their spouse at least once.

As you contemplate marriage, please remember that all marriages end in either death or divorce.

 

Cute. Thanks for sharing.

 

And you usually die mentally and emotionally long before your body dies.


lol.....JK

 

When I was quite young, my mother read the instructions from the book of etiquette. At the announcement of a pending wedding it was proper to congratulate the bride and wish the groom good luck. I never understood that until I got married.

 

No, Most guys just accept that their friends life is run by the boss at home. I can't tell you how many times I have heard " I have to consult with the boss". Or "If I don't go Ill be in the doghouse or sleeping on the sofa tonight". Marriage should not be something you dread. You should not be afraid of upsetting your wife, or afraid of her at all for that matter. There is no reason for anyone to be upset unless you constantly are out and leave her in the house by herself. The big problem I notice American women have is insecurity. They don't want to let their man off the leash because they are afraid there going to find someone better. Many of my friends can't even go to a strip club. Which is probably one of the safest and least likely places a man is going to pick up a woman. The women there are not going to leave with a man unless he pays some MAJOR coin to get her home. Most marries men are lucky to afford the $4 beers, let alone money to get a girl to a hotel. What are these women afraid of? Oh no!!!! The woman dancing on stage has a nicer body than you!!!!!!! This is not to mention that if you married someone that would take home a strip club dancer in the first place, you have bigger problems. Insecurity and overbearing rules like "I you can't look/talk to another woman that is more attractive than I am, is what causes a lot of men to cheat. It is kind of like the strict catholic parents that raise their son/ daughter under strict religious rules... once they are out of sight and earshot of the parents they go crazy. American women want their men on a leash, then get pissed if we question their motives the same way they question ours. I would say that at least 75% of American men are PWhiped by their wives. No one should have to live like that. Don't say it is not true, it is joked about all the time and has become an excepted thing by men.. which boggles my mind. However, there is a small but growing trend of American men who are starting to speak out against it. Just Google, American women suck, and surf thru the endless pages of blogs..

 

What?

There are about 150 million American women.

And you probably know AT MOST about 1,000 of them (and I highly doubt the total is that high).

So despite the fact that you know AT MOST one out of every 150,000 U.S> women...you feel you know what the majority of them are like?

And what is even more ridiculous is that you are saying that you personally know exactly what is going on in 75% of the roughly 60 MILLION married couples in America?

Come on now...you honestly expect people to take these statements of yours seriously?

 

Yes I do. Because they are the truth. It is widely accepted that the woman is "the boss". It is also a fact that women are favored in divorce settlements. Guess you have not watched many movies or talked to many of your married friends without the significant other around. Are you saying that you don't hear men jokingly afraid of their wife?

It is also a fact that the vast majority of divorces are initiated by women. Because it's always the mans fault obviously, right? Then he gets kicked in the balls some more having to pay alimony and child support for a child they have no visitation rights for.

Keep living in denial. I was once in your shoes, mainly because I thought all women were like American women. That was until I got to live overseas. It was like a bright light of enlightenment hit me when I was confident enough to start dating women I was not familiar with culturally. I can't explain it, you just have to experience it for yourself.

 

I thought your wife was the queen of the house and runs the finances. How are you more free than any other man? Your wife is just smarter. You don't know she's working you from the back...yet. Well done her. Of course most women are not calculating as you assert. Some are normal people, who love their husbands and don't behave like wild animals.

I can't speak for other women, but strip bars denigrate women. In the spirit of sisterhood, I don't appreciate that and don't respect men who abuse them. If my husband went to such a place, I would think less of him and lose respect. They are unethical.

As to hitting stats, I don't think 50% of men hit their wives really.

It is interesting how men don't want to accept they are responsible for their own actions. Almost to a man, they seem to want only to redirect by saying women hit men more than men hit women.

But you wouldn't hit a child heavily. Excluding obvious differences that kids are childish, prone to daft behaviour, can't be held responsible etc, in common with women they are comparatively defenceless and much more easily damaged. A woman seriously hitting a child is akin to a man seriously hitting a woman.

In all cases, it is a lack in the person who commits assault. If a child cries and carries on to the point where an adult is becoming stressed and frazzled, the adult often removes him/herself until s/he is able to regain calm and control, because that is the only acceptable option. It is completely unacceptable to hit a child in anger. If a woman carries on to the point where a man is becoming stressed, he should remove himself from that situation. It is never acceptable to assault her.

 

Would you care to provide links to the proof of all these 'facts' you claim?

If they so 'factual' - there must be plenty.

 

A man does not hit is wife. Only boys need to prove their worth by beating those they should be protecting.

 

My wife allows me to budget my own money as long as all her needs are met. She is actually shy to ask me for money. I have explained to her several times she needs to tell me if she needs extra money for somthing because I'm obviously not a psychic. She has gotten much better at this though. However, I was just trying to break the start opinion that Asian women are submissive to their men. They are not at all. If they are mistreated they will leave you for someone better. However they don't demand to be treated a certain way. Which is why my wife is shy to ask for money.

Total BS. You just don't want you man looking at another woman because it makes you feel insecure. I'm sure the woman dancing on stage feels denigrated when she is stuffing her walledlt with $300 or more a night and all she has to do is dance in a Namibia or topless in front of a crowd. Which, for them is an instant high. Women love the attention their body brings them. That is why women dress in sexy outfits. Its simply natural for women to like the attention. Look at nature, animals in nature do all kinds of things to woo their mate. Anyhow, I get tired of "liberated" women who feel they can cast their opinions of what is or is not ethical on others who are completely fine and willing to participate in somthing.

Don't get me started on this one. Women can and do get away with more than men because many of them have male enablers that make them believe its OK just so the males can get in to their pants. Take the hitting thing for instance... women slap men all the time in the movies, in public, during a fight when a man replies with hurtful words to combat the hurtful words said to him. Do women go to jail for this.. no. They get away with it just like they get away with many other things simply because they are women to women don't have to serve in combat, don't have to lift heavy objects at work if there is a man around. In the military, in maintenance particularly, most women are given administrative jobs because they don't want to get dirty or do manual labor on the flight line... equality my butt. Selective equality at best. They expect equality but still want you to treat them like a lady.. figure that one out. If we were grisly equal, treating them like a man would be equal right?

So you equate women to children. Fragile and innocent. Right! But equal to men??? Why would I hit a woman any different than I would hot a man. Of course I would not hit either unless it was in self defense of course.

I noticed that you did not include that a woman should do the same. On the premise that the man is always the guilty party when it comes to assault. It is perfectly fine for a woman to slap a man if he said soothing daragatory. I have seen it a million times. But just imagine if a woman denigrates a man and he punches or slaps he. Guess who is more likely to go to jail?

 

Google American women suck. Plenty of proof there. On top of my personal experiences dating in the states and abroad. Most Americans never leave the states and even fewer vacation in an area that is notan "Americanized" tourist spot. I have lived in 4 different countries for an extended period of time and amongst the real locals. I think I will put my experience down as significant and undeniable proof. And there are plenty others who share my views. Just Google "American women suck".), and you will read blog after blog and message forum after message forum of men who have been overseas and make the same observations.

 

Your 'experience' is 'undeniable proof' that American women and 75% of American married couples are as you say they are?

Do you understand how ridiculous that sounds?

Obviously not.


Have a nice day.

 

I'm not alone. There are many others who believe the same. And rediculious are the expectations and hypocritical standards women hold men to in America. What is rediculious is spending $4,000 on a wedding ring. Rediculious is nearly being a prisoner in your own home because your wife won't let you off the leash.

Women account for the majority of spending while they claim men still get paid more. Women make up I think it is close to or more than 60 percent of college graduates. There are lots of stats out there that show that our focus should be on men's equality now and not women's...

 

Okaaaaay....well, you have a nice day now.

Enjoy your 'man' freedom.

 

I will thank you. And I hope many men find the light I have. The only way to combat this is by showing American women that there are women out there that will treat is well and not denigrate/enslave us with their expectations. That will not treat us as some kind of dog they need to train to be a good husband.

 

Enslave?



Or...you could just treat them as equals and settle for nothing less then the same in return.

I have done that and it has worked out very well, imo.

 

Does not work... do you have kids? What would your wife say if you wanted to stay at home and raise the kids? Most women would leave you in a second, call you lazy, freeloader, say your not a man... Women rarely marry men who make less money than they do. And if they do and it is significantly less, the man will never hear the end of it. It will be a source of contention throughout the entire marriage. Many women care more for their "career's" than their children. The are willing to let a stranger raise their children.. but if a stranger wanted to borrow their car they would probavlbly call the police. They won't stay home and raise the children, and would never marry a man who wants to be jobless. Hmmmm.... sounds like a fairly reasonable expectation.

 

Uncle Ferd says the best way to deal with a sassy woman...

... is to get rid of her an' find another...

... he says womens is like street cars...

... one comes by ever' 20 mins.

 

50% of women deserve to be hit at least once.

 

Man!

I wish it was within the rules to call other members 'idiots'.

 

To be fair, perhaps around 40% of the women that are hit do not deserve to be hit. But similarly, perhaps around 10% of women deserve to be hit, but are not. I am not saying it is right, but many of the women that are hit probably deserve it.

 

No woman deserves to be hit by a man unless the man is acting in self-defense.

 

After reading this thread in its entirety, I not only believe that 50% of husbands have hit their wives I wouldn't mind betting the percentage is a lot higher.

Just kidding.

I notice it's just young single men strutting their stuff and spouting off a lot of tosh they wouldn't like their mothers to know about.

Here's some interesting facts:

http://www.domesticviolence.org/common-myths/


About 1 in 3 American women have been physically or sexually abused by a husband or boyfriend at some point in their lives. (Commonwealth Fund, Health Concerns Across a Woman's Lifespan: the Commonwealth Fund 1998 Survey of Women's Health, 1999)

 

Clicked on that link. It's not very good. It mentions that abusers have low self esteem. This is not true. Abusing someone is a risky activity and risky activities is not something someone with low self esteem does. Bullies, and that's what abusers are, generally have an overinflated sense of esteem. They think they are (*)(*)(*)(*)ing awesome.
