A 29-year-old Vietnamese woman, only identified by her surname, Pan, was sick and tired of her husband's philandering ways and his physical abuse. So she did what any scorned, crazed woman would do, ehem: She waited until he was passed out from drugs and sleeping pills and cut off his penis -- with a pair of scissors. Then she threw the severed member in a Taiwanese river like it ain't no thang.
Afterward, she turned herself into police and allegedly told them that she felt no regret for what she did to her unemployed, drugged-out dirtbag of a husband.
I've always considered myself to be somewhat of a pacifist. You seriously have to wonder about woman who has the cojones to cut off a man's weenus. Lord knows I wouldn't be able to go through with something like this, no matter how much the woman-beating, philandering bastard deserved it. Cutting off a dude's private parts -- with scissors (scissors!) no less -- would probably be more punishment for me than the man itself. Shudder! Blech! Ick!
Then again, I've never been pushed to such a point of desperation in my life. I imagine women who are actually ready to go through with ... the deed have reached a place where they literally have nowhere else to go. They've been abused -- physically, sexually, and emotionally -- for far too long. I can only imagine that cutting off the thing that essentially gives men their power must seem like the only possible option to them.
Pan, who worked at a local karaoke shop to support her family, has been taken into custody on charges of assault. And you know what? I bet she couldn't care less. She probably feels pretty damn good right now.

No. There is no reason, Ever, to resort to violence.
So, by your logic if a man puts up with a bitchy, nagging, aggresive wife for years, he would be justified in cutting off her breast? I was in an abusive relationship and I would NEVER have done something like this.
Although I agree it's never a good thing to resort to violence, if you've never been abused or in a violent situation then you have no more right to comment than the woman who posted this. Having been in an abusive relationship for over 6 years, I completely understand why the woman in this story would do what she did. I myself couldn't have done anything nearly that gruesome, but I can imagine how she could. If you don't know what it's like to be beat, lied to, cheated on, and just plain degraded on a daily basis you probably can't fathom how a woman could have this much pain and hate to do such a thing to someone. But before you make comments about how there is 'never' a reason to resort to violence, consider what this woman must have been through to push her to this point. Consider what it would be like to put up with abuse from someone else and how YOU would feel if you had been in her shoes.
Nicely Said Ashley! Im with you on this one!
agree with ashley, abuse can drive u to do some crazy things
Agree with Ashley. Abuse is no joke and when your at the end of your rope and finally snap, things that seem crazy by normal standards are suddenly a great idea.
