CS and women's greed strikes again..

... In article , "Kenneth S." writes: Anyone reading Krista's message below cannot help but be struck by the vocabulary she uses. For example, she's a "survivor" of many "emotionally abusive" relationships. This is the victim mindset that has been encouraged by the modern-day feminist movement. It's been cynically used to gain advantages for women over men -- destroying many families in the process, and inflicting serious damage on children. What in heck in "emotional abuse?" snip Yeah, and what in the hell is "financial abuse?" He wouldn't come through with her weekly allowance? He made her pay for her share of the household expenses? He took her to Arby's on their anniversary, instead of a nice restaurant? I'd like Krista to define "financial abuse." Financial abuse is taking complete control of the household finances and shutting the other person out of all decision-making, spending, and knowledge of said. In my case, it included spending $50,000 of my NON-marital property while we were married without my consent or prior knowledge. I didn't get a weekly allowance. I told him what I wanted to spend every DIME of money I asked him for on and HE determined whether it was "worth it" or not. I had NO discretionary funds until 3 months before I left, and that only because we were completely broke and he thought I could pull our butts out of the fire. I paid MORE than "my share" of the household finances since I worked AND he spent my $50,000. I made $20,000 (or so) working and he spent $50,000 (non-taxable), so I "made" $70,000 and HE made (after taxes) $27,000, so you tell me who paid more of the family finances? He didn't take me anywhere on our anniversary. I wanted to go to my folks house and leave our daughter with them to go out to dinner (the first time we would have done so since her birth), but he didn't want to make the 4 hour trip (I proposed we spend the night at his folks' house or mine), so we didn't go anywhere. The next time our anniversary came around we were separated and frankly, I didn't even think about it or him until late in the evening when I realized it had been our 2nd anniversary that day. -- Krista Mother of three Student of Psychology and Latin |
