didn't the husband give the money to her? dude if you give it to her, it's hers. only problem i see here is if the women comes back asking for more to buy other stuff. anyway, middle east men abuse their wives anyway. not too surprising for something small like this.
How about if I go and slap that judge? How does he feel now? And that makes it totally justified. And I want my money back. -noclue :bowdown: -devil :nuts: -bash
Those country have a really stupid law and religious ruling imo...but still we can't do anything to help the women over there...maybe the USA can help by sending helicopters and carry them all out of there LOL
omg, thats just a trick!!! they give their wifes too much money so she can overspend... if she does... shes gonna get bitch slapped
it's where a man can really be a man...don't have to be scared of the wife talking back, or five across the eye...>.>
