Women who are trophy wives/girlfriends are a far cry from women who are abused.

The reality is that when women are “maintained” or “kept happy through “disgenuous acts” [e.g., freedom to buy out Neiman Marcus] they tend to overlook what’s really happening. The relationship is not primary to them; the payoff is.

The above is miles apart from domestic violence, though it does have some similar characteristics. But we’re not talking about an abused woman in Vick’s case. We’re talking about a woman who, if my guess is right, jumped ships because the first one [Vick’s] had sunk.

If you ask women whose marriages fell apart due to various covert, illegal activities of the spouse, very, very, very few would say in retrospect that they didn’t know. Many just don’t WANT to know because they don’t feel they can survive without the spouse. Or they don’t want to give up the perks. So they turn on the blinders.

In Vick’s woman’s case she chose to walk. So she had an agenda.

No one in this blog ever trashed abused women or blamed them. But if my hunch is right, Vick’s girlfriend was far from abused. So I am not sure how domestic violence got into this topic.

By the way, do you people blame domestic violence on the wives who stayed? Have you listened to how you sound? Yep, she deserved it for staying. It’s her fault he abused dogs because she didn’t stop him. And she left as soon as the baby was born and she could get out.

You people sicken me. Remind me of why abuse has existed for so long.
