12/04 Doomed from the Start?

Quote From: reenietta

On the Tuesday, Dec. 4 show with Anthoney and Erin....I must comment on Anthoney claiming he is only physical with Erin when she is "attacking him."  That he holds her down until she stops fighting him.  This struck a deeply emotional chord with me.  He is not protecting himself, he is on a power trip to prove that he is stronger than she is and is forcing her to bend to his will.  This almost borders on torture, in my mind.  When a woman is held down, she feels powerless and and humiliated.  I am imagining (only imagining) that if someone did this to me, it would only enrage me further....I would be still....then as soon as he stopped "restraining me for my own good" I would get up and slug the hell out of him with whatever I found handy.  This guy is so completely arrogant and clueless, but I must admit that his wife needs to grow up and more importantly, grow a backbone.
I am so surprised with everyones responses. She cheated as well as he did. She didnt do anything in the house to make his life easier, as a wife, she has to do her part. If she wanted to stay home, she has half the responsiblity to take care of the house!!!!!   I am not condoning his behavior, but "nobody" held her accountable for anything. She cheated, she hit him, it is better for him to leave, and that was wrong, however, she plays the victim very well. My leg shakes like that and my breathing changes when I am on TV!!!!  People, it is possible for a WOMAN to ABUSE a MAN. Everytime he brought up what that she cheated, Dr. Phil just blew it off and made jokes about how he shared  intimate thoughts with people he cheated on her with, but what about her?  Where is her accountability?  The bottom line for me is, I am a woman, been cheated on, been physically and verbally abused by my ex-husband, but I never blamed him for what my part was in the downfall of the marriage. If I sat on my butt all time, with food stuck to the floor, I would expect him to cheat and leave. Not that it was right, but she seems lazy, spoiled and I think she is 50% responsible. thats it.
