'Beat me once a week' says Iranian woman
An Iranian woman, beaten every day by her husband, asked a court to tell him only to beat her once a week. Maryam, the middle-age woman, said she did not want to divorce her husband because she loved him. "Just tell him to beat me once a week ... Beating is part of his nature and he cannot stop it," Maryam told the court.
sheeesh! talk about enabling...
"... and I really like the part where he gets out the Jolly Green Giant Creamed Corn..."
The Tehran court found the man guilty and banned him from beating the wife, the paper said. "If I do not beat her, she will not be scared enough to obey me," the husband said.
"I'll only be half a man if I cannot beat the crap out of my wife"
"A year from now she'll have thrown out my leather chaps and she'll be making me bark like a dog!"
