I saw the most WHIPPED man EVER today

[yvr girl]

I was grabbing some lunch in a mall. I sat down beside a family (dad and two kids.) The Dad was going to buy another burger meal combo to split with his son, as they were both still hungry.

The kids both immediately said, "You better not, Mom will be mad." This discussion went on for a bit. Eventually Mom arrived with her salad. Dad broached the idea with her. She totally vetoed it. Would not let him spend $6 bucks more for lunch. Later she vetoed visiting his Mom for the afternoon because "...he had chores to do."

They could afford the $6. The kids went to private school, and I think Dad is a professor at the university.

1. sounds like my brother......

hey, we have to have a dance pary when the yankees win tonight!
location: red sox's grave!

[Placebo]

2. Maybe he enjoys being whipped.

But that's a whole other conversation altogether.

:spank:

[YellowRubberDuckie]

3. Good Lord...

They're growing kids...let them eat. It probably wasn't about the money...she was probably afraid they were going to get fat or something. Most people are obsessed with that.
Duckie

[yvr girl]

5. The whole family was rail thin

I can see controlling what your kids eat, but not letting your husband buy a burger seems a bit much to me.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

27. Some women control their husbands souls...

It's sick. My mom was the same way with my dad. If he told us we could do something, it pissed her off. If he spent money, it pissed her off. She's a control freak and it drives me batty. It's so bad sometimes I can't go to the bathroom without her asking me what I'm doing and where I'm going. It is so freaking annoying. I hate women like that.

[Abelman]

4. Damn!

That's whipped.

[DulceDecorum]

6. So,

Lizzie Borden finally got married.

[AlCzervik]

7. he probably likes it that way.

[MissMillie]

8. Maybe they're saving for something special

And he realized that her request was reasonable and would make that something special happen sooner.

I hate the term "whipped."

Submitting to a request is common courtesy.

[AlCzervik]

9. that could be true and also his mother could be a horror show.

[yvr girl]

10. I forgot to mention she made him eat salad

He didn't want it, but she kept shoveling it in his mouth.

I just question the request. I can't believe they weren't allowed to visit his mother (who would have been elderly) for an hour either. C'mon.

[AngryAmish]

15. "Whipped" is a perfectly appropriate term

And when one partner dominates the other it is wrong. (Unless in a more adult context - then anything goes.)

[mondo joe]

31. I'll bet he's Diaper Whipped too

and the kids have more authority than he does.

[Lone Pawn]

21. Yeah. Sure.

Why do you hate the term 'whipped'--hear it in reference to your SO? }(

[MissMillie]

34. I don't have an SO

I just think that a lot of times relationships don't work because people are unwilling to make small concessions that might bring their partner joy.

Chances are, this guy is going to get a burger somewhere else at some other time when the kid isn't there to tattle on him.

So this once, in order to spare a fight, he gave in.

That doesn't make him whipped. It makes him smart.

[Dark]

11. Makes me glad I'm gay. n/t

[muffin_man]

13. Because homesexuals can't be "whipped"?

Or the whole not submitting to the opposite sex? Or "just because" and the comment is not related to the topic? I'm confused???

[Lex]

16. Hahahaha. Homosexuals can't be whipped by their SO? Hahahaha.

Oh boy.

Hahahahahahahahaha.


:wipes tears:

[Dark]

17. No, because I will never have to be married to a woman who is

afraid to spend six dollars. . .

[Dark]

18. Of course, I'll never have to be worried about getting married period.

:(

[Lone Pawn]

22. You, could, however be with a guy who is

afraid to spend six dollars. Just as likely, I think.

[Lex]

25. Yeah, this sort of thing

is no more or less likely to happen in same-sex relationships as far as I've observed.

[WinterStorm]

12. I would be eating the burger when she returned

{{{burp}}}

[Lex]

19. Me too. n/t

[sendero]

14. One day..

... the guy will grow a pair and tell her to curb her control or else :)

[yvr girl]

24. He was 45-50 if he was a day

I think he may have been a lost cause.

[lateo]

20. "How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?"

I feel for this guy.

[Lex]

23. The guy ought to stand up for himself.

I don't feel sorry for people who won't call 'Bullshit' when necessary.

He helped create that situation by putting up with her micro-control over time

[lateo]

36. I will always have empathy for my fellow humans...

Regardless of the situations they allow themselves to endure or even put themselves into.

[Lex]

37. Wow, really?

I hear there's an opening in Rome for someone as pious as you.

:silly:

[lateo]

41. Being empathic !=pious

Maybe you should consult dictionary.com on occasion...

[Lex]

47. Put the dictionary down and lighten up.

I put the :silly: icon there for a reason.

[Dukkha]

44. But in the town it was well known they they got home at night

their fat and Psychopathic wives would thrash them
Within inches of their lives.

I work next the the most whipped man alive.
little fat squirrelly looking whiner. He has to call his wife to get permission to do everything, even kick in a dollar to the company b-day pool. You can tell this bitch is always bitching at him too. Plus she's butt ugly. She looks just like Mikey on American Chopper.

At thmes like that I'm almost glad I can't get a girlfriend.

[Love Bug]

26. Jeeze, it's usually old ladies that tell their husbands what they can eat

I've seen that before in restaurants: "Joe, you shouldn't order that. You know it gives you gas."

[NewJeffCT]

28. well, it could be

It could be that Dad is on a special diet, but sometimes doesn't have the discipline to stick with it?

Maybe his wife also said that he had chores to do, meaning that they all had them to do, but he had them to do as well?

Then again, she could just be a domineering woman like you said.

[elehhhhna]

29. He married Mommy. Some men do that, ya know.

[mondo joe]

30. No no - my neighbor is the most whipped. Every weekend his wife

prepares a list of his jobs to do that weekend. Whenever he wants to buy anything he has to ask her first. And whenever their kid becomes a handful she passes it on to him. He cooks all the meals, does 90% of the child care and has no authority.

But the best part is: he deserves it. He's such a loser.

[Redstone]

32. Wotta weenie.

Redstone

[Rabrrrrrr]

33. Whipped men make me sick. I don't buy into the macho bullshit,

but it sickens to me to see a man oppressed and beaten by his mate and unwilling to tell her to go fuck herself.

And the same for the women who are oppressed by their men.

[ScreamingMeemie]

35. MrG is not whipped and we have had conversations along these lines.

His mother is a real pill and a half and somedays I just don't have the energy for her...neither does he (and he also vetoes visits to my family on somedayss) Two, $6 more is a lot of money to me. Let's go home and I'll make you a PB and J....:hi:

[Beer Snob-50]

38. Maybe his thought process was...

"I really don't want to start an argument here." regarding visiting his Mother. And regarding the food, some things are not worth arguing over.

[Speck Tater]

39. Ask me again why I'm HAPPILY single! (nt)

[gollygee]

40. Yes I know someone in a marriage like that

it can be the man who is the ass in a marriage as well. I know men who have awful wives and women who have awful husbands.

It makes me appreciate my husband more.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

42. Good morning, yvr girl! Situations like this one make me sad...

The guy is being railroaded by his wife, and that is just WRONG! The kids have already imprinted on this, and will carry this toxic message into their own relationships. For those who say the guy likes it or deserves it: He has (probably) got such low self-esteem that he can't fight. Who knows where those feelings come from but he has them. It's just a shame all round...

:hi:

[Bridget Burke]

43. Would it be better if the man ruled the roost?

Or would you have been equally sickened by a submissive wife?

The relationship you describe might be just what both of them want. Count your blessings....

[LoZoccolo]

45. Obviously mom throws fits big enough for the whole family.

Otherwise, the kids wouldn't have an interest in keeping her calm as well.

[chickenscratching]

46. one day i saw

this woman driving her car with her big dog in the front seat--husband in the back.
maybe the dog faired better up front, or else the man is totally whippd
:shrug:
