What interesting times. Time and again, last week's Onion story becomes today's reality.

(2,603 posts)Amazing that it has to be shrouded in biblical terms to be acceptable.

I wonder if they can Christianize "The 120 Days of Sodom: or, The School of Libertinism".
That could be interesting to watch.

And men.
It's the lack of consent and a safe word that would make it abuse.

(6,151 posts)But they seem to need to candy coat everything they do with faux-biblical excuses, sex and hate and environmental destruction all. If it's in the Good Book, it must be okay.
My ex never wanted to risk too much domineering role play with me, somehow. Maybe it was because when I found out what a closet sociopath he was, I told him flat out that if he ever raised his hand to me, he didn't need to worry about what my male relatives would do to him because it would be a moot point. He never did, either. The emotional abuse left its own scars, but he was never rash enough to cross the line to physical violence. I've occasionally wondered how his second, third, and fourth wives coped.
BTW, he's a Rethug Washington lobbyist now.

(24,768 posts)It's the latest blasphemy devised by small excuses for men who use God's name to justify reducing women to slavery, sexual and otherwise.

(11,304 posts)that no man is to put his hand on you to do harm. Especially a boyfriend or a husband. I teach her to stand up for herself. No woman should take that kind of abuse.

Also, consider the following 2 "Rules" in reference to things like this and where they come form in the psyches of these people..
Frued said "Everything is about sex...except sex, which is about Power."
In all things (including Sex, and wether we know it or not) our INSTINCT is to treat others how WE WANT to be treated.
Ladies, remember these things the next time you meet one of these fundie, "women in my house are subserviant to me as The Man" loons, and what he would look like all trussed up on the floor with your riding crop against his ass. I promise it will make you smile, because I can almost ASSURE you, it's what the loon wants, too.

(12,778 posts)Kinky role playing, maybe, just looking at the picture.
By the way, I am a Christian, and I can tell you that nothing justifies abuse from a Christian point of view. Anyone who says otherwise is deluded or lying.
On edit: Okay, I finally made myself listen to part of the video. I couldn't make it all the way through. I really believe this is just about some people who want to put a little kink in their marriage and justify it with religion. People, if both partners want a little kink, there is no need to justify it.

The last thing an already domineering religious patriarch needs is more permission to batter another adult.

What a hypocritical sham.

(2,529 posts)I've seen Y-Tube videos where people in those Holy Laughter sermons are having outright orgasms. Close your eyes and you'd swear it sounds like what you'd expect an orgy would. And, seriously, how many fundamentalists are there who look like that couple? In reality, they'd probably be 'holy rollers' in the sense that they'd be so overweight, they'd be on hoverounds, and no, don't bother getting in my face for the stereotype; I'm unrepentant about it. I live down the street from Hagee's Cornerstone fucking Church and I have to maneuver my car around those assholes every time they have services or some other stupid event going on. The body mass index in that place ought to set off a Richter Scale reading when it's in movement. They don't get their rocks any other way, so they have to get sneaky about it. It used to be that only Pentecostals would pull this kind of craziness. Now, it seems like evangelicals have gone as crazy as the Pentecostals.
