The Girl

This story I didn't actually experience firsthand. But it's from a very trusted source. It comes directly from an aid/relief worker. I'm not sure when it occurred, but it really helps give you an idea of the mindset of these guys.

A woman came into the aid clinic for help, she had been very badly beaten by her husband. They brought an interpreter over and started talking to her, apparently he was beating her because she couldn't get pregnant. She wanted the doctors to find out what was wrong with her. Because of course it has to be her fault right? They decided to do a little investigating, and they brought the husband in. They questioned him about it, and he explained that yes, he was beating her because she couldn't get pregnant. That's just par for the course around here. So they dug a little deeper, and found out that basically, he was doing it wrong. You see, the only kind of sex ed this guy had received was from what his father did to him. So he thought that was how you had sex. Which of course explains the lack of pregnancy. They explained to him the proper way to do it, and they all lived happily ever after...right?

What a story. Hopefully the lady got pregnant and avoided future beatings.
