...Sounds like something slightly saner than our if-a-man-is-accused-of-beating-his-wife-or-girlfriend-then-he-IS-GUILTY-of-domestic-violence judicial system. :/

Thought this was finally the Tigers Woods mea culpa... ; )

[bgill]

Oh, well, as long it’s just once a week then he has time to heal before the next beating.

She could make alot of money in SF or NYC

Chen Pyun-ching.

[tuffydoodle]

Lost in the translation was the word “off.”

[envisio]

“”””ALLOW””””””

...is the operative word here.

Otherwise, she gets the police called on her by a sensible man. Or gets her teeth knocked out by a not-so-sensible man.

[Ev Reeman]

Could this be a possible copycat Tiger Woods crime...lol.

Cue the old vaudeville joke -

My wife beats me up every morning. Yeah. She gets up at 6:00 - I get up at 6:30

(ba-dum-shish!)

No picture of the wife to know if it’s a fair trade.

I might let Lucy Liu or Grace Park take a swing at me as part of a “mutual combat/consensual sex” agreement.

Talk about WHIPPED!

Sorry, nophotos in the print version, and just assumed the same would be true on line. I read the printed article into Dragon Speaking Naturally software.

The Obamas have a similar agreement.

Zhang, 32, said his wife Chen, who is skilled in martial arts

Apparently not so skilled in the marital arts...

[mikrofon]

Zhang, 32, said his wife Chen . . . frequently beats him during disputes over petty things such as who will wash the dishes

You'd think he'd get her to channel the rage into something less dangerous, such as just heaving the plates at him like in normal households...

[calex59]

Sane? You think agreeing to let someone beat you once a week sounds sane? I think I would either train myself up in martial arts and beat the snot out of her, which would calm her down in a hurry, or use a club which would accomplish the same purpose and then I would leave her.
