If you need any further proof that the USA is in the midst of a full-on patriarchal biblical-religious war on women, a Wisconsin lawmaker is happy to provide it.
According to Yahoo News, Wisconsin Rep. Don Pridemore helpfully suggests that, rather than divorcing an abusive spouse, you should try to remember the things you love about the guy while he is beating you up.
In Wisconsin - yes, the same state where lawmakers have introduced a bill penalizing single mothers for being unmarried - a Republican state representative has come out against divorce for any reason - even domestic abuse.
Instead of leaving an abusive situation, women should try to remember the things they love about their husbands, Representative Don Pridemore said. "If they can re-find those reasons and get back to why they got married in the first place it might help," he told a local news station.
