pray and how does this help the situation?
Unless you want to live a cat and mouse marriage, this is a most unreasonable attitude.
That is ONLY my opinion, It may work, it may NOT work, It's left to be seen. No one dreams or wishes to be in an abusive relationship, but shit happens. Who knows, maybe caught in such a situation I may not even know what to do. But as it stands now, I would rather fight back Who knows maybe he will see I am NOT an easy pushover and rethink before lifting his hands, @StephenP DOn't fool yourself dread, Men are great pretenders. During the courtship they can be angels, as soon as they place that ring on your finger then it's a whole different ball game. The truth is, one can never tell. While there may be some warning signs, most times there arent. It's a risk some of us ladies are not willing to take,

Beat a man that's twice your size? Ever heard of this yoruba phrase, "Abara kekere fun abara nl"? meaning, big slap for small slap. A man's hand is usually twice the size of his woman and firmer. When that man hits that woman back gan, she go think thunder hit her
A knife gets the job done.  That's why I said if you can, do it and if you can't, don't. Some women are bigger than their husbands yet they (the women) let their men beat them.

So what's your solution? that she should let him continue slapping her? Lay low? Talk to a heedless man?
Read my post again, there is a caveat there that indicates the woman should take drastic action if the man is a chronic abuser. [/b]

Bull. Try showing a 6ft 3in 220lb guy that you're not a pushover. @StephenP DOn't fool yourself dread, Men are great pretenders.

Ditto for women. I'm tired of all this "men this men that . . ." Women pretend the most. They are all nice and cuddly while dating, soon as they become installed as wives the headaches, tiredness, nagging, snapped replies, bitchy claws come into the equation.

I am NOT even going to waste my time going down that road with you, Saying women pretend the most, is like saying ALL Nigerians do fraud. In other words, Men pretend and Women pretend as well. There are NO winners where this is concerned. And what is so wrong about a 5ft 4in woman standing up to a 6ft 3in man? Yea, he may beat the crap out of her, but the fact that she showed him she's no coward would stir something inside of him. AS I earlier said, I do NOT condone physical, verbal or psychological abuse in anyway, However, I won't just dump my husband on the first sign of trouble, I would try to work things out and if it persists, then I take other steps,

finito. Enough of blaming men for global warming. And what is so wrong about a 5ft 4in woman standing up to a 6ft 3in man? Yea, he may beat the crap out of her, but the fact that she showed him she's no coward would stir something inside of him.
It is just so wrong on too many levels. Being a bully and trying to slap your husband is not a mature way of showing you're not a coward . . . infact it merely cements the fact that you're a kid in adult skin. AS I earlier said, I do NOT condone physical, verbal or psychological abuse in anyway, However, I won't just dump my husband on the first sign of trouble, I would try to work things out and if it persists, then I take other steps,
don't lets beat around the bush, the above is bull. you're a very abusive person so stop pretending with all these theory. My point on topic, you're husband may hit you by mistake . . . let him know its wrong, make him appologize and make it up to you . . . then bury the hatchet and move on as a family. If he's a chronic abuser then he needs help, get out of his house before he kills you.

LOL, Do we know each other? NO honestly, I mean, scrap NL( the internet), YOu are entitled to say whatever makes your balls get hard dread, It doesnt really bother me, I am an abusive person, just like you are an instigator of e-beefs, Settled? And how can you repeat what I already have? Didn't I say I won't just walk away but tr meary instead to work things out and if that doesnt work then other measures will be taken? Maybe if you take time out to read other peoples' posts before jumping on their behinds( for silly reasons) then most of the beefs you get engaged in would be a thing of the past, Don't come looking for my trouble, I am really NOT in the mood,

given nigerian culture, all that needs to be done is to beg one of the in-laws to bring the woman back. shh there are many cases of nigerian women who are abused for decades but refuse to file for divorce due to cultural or religious reasons. most women would stick it out all in the name of "love". this includes the independent women of nairaland. whatup islander, i'm still waiting for my fish dinner

Very true. Culture plays a very significant role here . . . we are from a culture where its almost a given that men are allowed to be a little abusive. There are even women who will tell you they prefer to marry a man who can "handle" them (read that to mean manhandle). Will such women be willing to admit spousal abuse?

NO it's not( well to me), apology accepted, And yes we were exchanging Ideas( NO insults) until Nairaland Mr.Put-to-right, came on, Don't know when some people would learn that the world doesn't revolve around them, and that sometimes people just cannot be bothered with their half-baked opinion, @topic Bawomola, You made a very valid point, Culture can also play a decisive role in these types of situations,
