"from ancient grudge new mutiny breaks forth". I wish I knew how to get rid of old resentments. I can hold on to them longer than the Mafia!

Violence in the home is a horrible thing. Here in Denmark there's been some attention recently to the problem of women who beat. It seems to be a more common occurence among the younger generation. That said, the "traditional" form is still dominant.

The tazered cat is great :D Thanks.

"In her video, Ensler said she wants to make stopping violence against women the center of the global agenda, and she hopes everyone takes a pledge on February 14, regarding what they are going to personally do to end this violence."

I always had a loving mom and 2 sets of grandparents (one that lived in our city and I spent lots of wonderful time with), they were actually my real 'fathers' parents.  I still am angry about growing up with an asshole of a stepdad, but I wouldn't hurt my mom's feelings by telling her that now.  She was just doing the best she could at the time.  I had a pretty good childhood, but I know my 'dad' abandoning us to party his life away affected me in a terrible way.  I clung to my high school boyfriend for security, and we got married too young, but it turned out well.  We've been married 25 years, and he is a really good husband and father.  I wouldn't change a thing, because then I wouldn't have the kids I have now.  My mom says that too about marrying my 'father.'  So, life goes on... :)

Joan, I think I can partially understand where you and others are coming from.  Even though I've had a relatively easy life, I still don't find humor in violence, or mistreating others.
