I see. Well, maybe if you had ever been "abused" (I'm not really sure
I mean that word, there are all different kinds of abuse) but, let's
say you had, and that for lots of reasons, not because you were a
wimp, or a chicken or a whiner, or whatever, 
 maybe, just maybe you would feel differently. I'm sure there are
women who exaggerate or
don't want to get their lives in order, but I'm also sure that many
other women never,ever, want to let anyone know whatever they may
be dealing with for lots of different reasons. And posts like this
making fun of something you'll probably never ever understand sure
won't help them. I'm always curious when I sit around with people
talking, that they are so quick to come up with answers to so many
things that they've never had to deal with. Actually, I remember
talking to a lawyer a long time ago and he said that women were always
harder on other women in a rape case, divorce case. I wonder why that
is? Regardless, it's very hard to open up with women or men, who
always seem to have an answer for everything. And, unfortunately, I
don't see lots of compassion from woman to woman, especially
concerning "abuse" (I sorta hate that buzzword). If we can help people
who truly are in need, I see no problem with that. Only gladness.
