More than 40 percent of women surveyed in the Seattle area reported they had been physically or psychologically abused by their husbands, dates or boyfriends.In Seattle, being abused means dating a guy who bathes, watches FOX and doesn't wear Birkenstocks.

... whereas, in the rest of the country, it just means that the women did not "get their way" or win the argument ...
Was this story really newsworthy? LOL

The very idea is impossible over on what we Washingtonians call the West Side. The people over there are some of the most progressive, caring, sensitive, compassionate people outside The People's Republic of Massachusetts and the San Francisco/ Beserkley corridor. Just ask 'em. The authors of the study must have gotten the location wrong, and really meant somewhere in Utah, or Texas, or Alabama, or some such.

The only guys who do the abusing are retrosexuals. The good guys are gays and sensitive New Age Alan Alda types. Now we're getting somewhere!
