I don't get it either. From what I have heard about Fat Bitch Wife is that yes, she does have legitimate medical issues but that she tends to exaggerate these issues in order to get away with her bullying. I have been told this by trustworthy other family members of these people.  These other family members are very decent, nice, honest people. According to them this bitch has been doing this since before her issues developed. This is not new behavior. Fat bitch also likes to take every opportunity she has to publicly embarrass her husband (what I have been told and I believe it). This I just don't get. I am a married woman and sure my husband and I fight, argue, and disagree from time to time. One of the golden rules of our marriage is that we don't air our dirty laundry in public. This means that we end up not embarrassing and being disrespectful and rude to each other in public. We don't want to hurt each other.  Of course we try not to do that in private either. We try to work things out without taking low shots even when we are screaming at each other. I am not a doormat but I do believe that it is important for me to submit to my husband at times and at other times it is important that he listen to me and follow my wishes. It's a two way street.  This crazy brave new world narrative seems to be that if you are female you are always right and men are evil and therefore must cater to every feminine wish and whim.  I am by no means perfect and neither is my husband but one of the things in my life that I am very proud of is that he isn't the type of man who is going to put up with that sort of thing. I don't understand these women who pull this crap. Do they not understand that they are supposed to be part of a team and should build their husbands up not tear them down? Of course I am his family but that means he is my family too. It's a two way street. Yes, I am his family. That means he is mine. I genuinely believe that Pig Fucker Husband is scared to death of his bitch. Why would you allow this to continue I don't know. Why, as a wife you would want the man who is supposed to be your other half, your best friend, etc... to live in terror of you? As a woman I have an even harder time understanding. It is a perversion of what marriage and love are supposed to be. I have no respect for a "man" like that. I don't think most people do. All these womyn are doing is making their men look awful and sabotaging their own lives along the way. I love my husband. I want to help him succeed. I don't understand why that is so hard for these fat bitches to understand. They seem to think that all women are like them and the ones who have boyfriends or are married will try to swap trash talk stories about their men with you every chance they get. Seriously, they do it all the time. I usually become mute at that point. The thing about that Power Wheel. I remember seeing it in two of my courses about 15 or 16 years ago when I was in college. It seemed like everyone I was in those classes with started seeing "abuse" everywhere after that. I'm not saying it's a horrible tool or can't be useful but my personal opinion is just that it's too vague and a lot of people are reading way too much into it. And, yes, God forbid that these "strong, fierce, brave" "womyn" be anything other than a victim. Just like everything else in life it goes both ways... men can be the victims of abuse just the same as women.
