We gals do prefer to iron out our differences with our husbands while they're sleeping.
Accept us as we are!
UPDATE
Vive La Similarite!:
A hilarious quote from Darlene Hilker, sent by a judge to the Women Who Batter program for abusing her husband:
"A lot of women don't feel like they can be batterers, but you just get pushed to a point and it just happens," said Hilker.
Why does this guy have to make Darlene hit him anyway? Look at all the trouble he's caused!

Love is grand, but right from the start we do prefer to be sneakily aggressive. It's just one of those innate differences that people used to say didn't exist.
Say hello to Betty Freidan's hat for me, would ya?
Sleep with one eye open, Mr. Cracker, one eye open.
And watch out for the beagle, too. A dog with a drug habit will kill you for a sawbuck.

Posted by: Jeff H at February 8, 2006 03:45 PMMr. Cracker does read your blog, right?
Posted by: Bill from INDC at February 8, 2006 04:20 PMNope. He hears enough of my nonsense just in passing.
Posted by: Donnah at February 8, 2006 05:19 PMShortly after we were married, my wife told me if she ever found that I had cheated on her, i would wake up one day separated from my bull fries. 19 years later, I still remember.

Posted by: marc at February 9, 2006 12:47 AM I've known all along that there are wives who batter. The courts are just now figuring this out? My last ex would have been a batterer, but I convinced her that until she had a hell of a good reason, that to batter me would not be good for her future financial security. (She couldn't support herself) I assured her that any aggression towards me would suggest that she had taken all she wanted from me and was ready to move on.
Now, my new significant other, my beautiful blonde belgian Malinois, and I live very comfortably while ex is somewhere on welfare. She just shouldn't have said that she wanted to beat me. In defense of her freedom, (not giving her reason to go to jail), I put her on the curb. Now she doesn't have to put up with the likes of me, and can tell her street people friends how much better off she is.
