So Odd it Must Be True #1

Reuters has a little story (click on the title above to go to it) about a Spanish man who tried to sue his wife for domestic abuse because she refused to have sex with him for 5 consecutive days.

The judge, of course, tossed the case out but you have to admit that it is an interesting way of interpreting "domestic abuse". Though, that said, the guy needs to get a clue I think...trying to use a law most often used against wife beaters as a way of forcing your wife to have sex with you says more about him and his shortcomings (no pun and/or inference about his anatomical attributes intended ;-) than it does about her (maybe she just wasn't in the mood for a week, dude...just relax and use that pent up energy to do something else until she's more receptive.)

It's a wonderfully weird world sometimes and I'm glad I live in it.
