He lashed out at her.
"You're crazy, I'm so tired of all this. I need peace"
"Peace, you say peace. Hmmm! You can't have peace o", she said holding on to his shirt.
Femi was a perfect gentle man; he'd never raise his hands against a lady. But his wife was pushing him.

This was not the first time she was doing it; he was fed up.
"Please let me go, I don't have time for this this morning", he pleaded

"Let you go, so you'd go meet your mistress. Lai! Lai!, you're joking", she replied, tightening her grip on his shirt.

"I've told for the umpteenth time; there is no mistress anywhere, you're just delusional"
"Me! Delusional. Okay, come and pass na. I'd show you delusional", she shouted back.

"For the last time; let go of me, or..." He threatened,
"Or what? Femi! What would you do", she replied.

It landed on her cheek like a storm. She fell on the couch; releasing her grip on Femi's shirt.

She was deaf for a few seconds, all she could hear was a tiny whistling. She looked at Femi; he was saying something but she couldn't hear a thing.

When she finally regained her hearing and balance; hot tears escaped her eyes. Amidst sobs, she said, "Femi! You slapped me?"

"You were begging for it", he replied. With that he went upstairs, after two minutes or thereabout, he came down with a new shirt. She was just there on the couch sobbing. He walked past her to the door and he was gone.

What could possibly be the justification for hitting a woman? My mom used to say

The day a man raises his hands against a woman, he stops being a man

Women, they say are weaker vessel, but I beg to differ. Granted, women are not built like men, but that doesn't make them weaker.

They ought to be protected not physically abused or molested; that's the way it was designed.

A bunch of men will say women are so provocative, they deserve the beaten they get sometimes.

Well, women sometimes provoke beyond control, but that doesn't warrant beating. One thing we should know is that they are an emotional bunch; they are controlled by their emotions.

They don't really mean what they say at those moments of whipped up emotions; it's just the emotions talking.

As men, we should be able to see beyond her emotions, and bring her out. We shouldn't be infected by those emotions. We are the logical ones here; if the man and the woman become emotional, that would be disastrous.

I saw a picture the other day that reads

if you can't smash your phone when it's faulty, then don't hit a lady. If she's beyond your control seek counseling.

So, men be men. Protect is what we do. Let's protect the women in our lives from these negative emotions. Let's not fall victim to it.

Wow..... You post kept me in deep thought for a while.

I think the proof of manhood is not in muscles or the heavy punch some of them throw at women. In my opinion the word is we-men if am permitted to spell it that way.... We hail from them and at such should treat them with the love and respect they deserve

Yes, women should be treated with love and respect

Agreed 100%. There is rarely a need to resort to violence with anyone.... most issues can be solved thru open and honest communication... and if that open and honest communication is with your significant other that should increase the bond between y'all. If communication doesn't work then you're obviously with the wrong person... sometimes that happens too.

If communication doesn't work then you're obviously with the wrong person.

So true

Yes.. Women can be very annoying sometimes but it does not give men the right to beat them up.
They are other non violent ways to act if you are been angered by a lady.

Yea, and that is where anger management comes in
