UK: JAIL FOR THE HUSBANDS WHO 'CONTROL' THEIR WIVES...
Quote: HUSBANDS who keep their wives downtrodden could face prison under new plans set out by the Government today.
Theresa May, the Home Secretary, published proposals for a new offence of “domestic abuse” designed to criminalise men who bully, cause psychological harm or deny money to their partners.
The law would make the worst cases of non-violent “controlling behaviour” a jailable offence.
Exact terms of the offence are yet to be defined, but it could involve humiliating, frightening or intimidating a partner, keeping them away from friends or family or restricting their access to money.
A 15-page consultation document issued by the Home Office that there would have to be a “pattern” of abuse to trigger a prosecution.

Bet this plays out in the muslim enclaves.
Nonsense laws like this are proof that feminism is focused squarely on destroying W. Civ.

So withholding sex would be a jail-able offense for women??

One more reason why I would never remarry.
Not because I have ever, nor would I ever, do any of the things listed as controlling or abusive.
But because I don't want to give some bureaucrat the power to determine that something that I did, that was none of the above, still somehow qualified.

Bad news for the Muslims. Too bad the Brits will only enforce it on the non Muslim population.

I'm torn on this because it looks rather vague. The heart behind it though is solid. If they can better define what they are going after and rename it "Non Physical Abuse" I would be a whole lot more comfortable.

I don't think they want to better define it. They want a vague law that will allow them overreaching powers and be able to control, threaten and punish you more easily. Laws like these are very rarely done in the best interest of society.

Look deeper. The female is naturally going to submit to the alpha male personality. What they are trying to do is ban the alpha male personality.

If I lived in Britain and for some event where the wife was in that period of discontent and if she put me in jail which I'm sure it's not a long term jail sentence that would be the end of my marriage. She could do anytime she wanted but the first time it resulted in incarceration, good bye love.
You're right okie. The muslims would be exempt because of their culture.
