Man With Boiled Penis Wants Divorce, Not Prison For Wife

072809fire.jpg The Queens man whose wife dumped boiling water on his genitals as he slept Monday morning says he doesn't want his spouse of 21 years to be incarcerated, he just wants a divorce. Speaking to CBS2 from the hospital where he's recovering from 2nd and 3rd degree burns, Emmanuel Ojofietimi insisted he hasn't cheated on her... lately: "Maybe 20 years ago, 15 years ago." (He also tells the Post, "She kept nagging and nagging me all the time.") Oyindamola, his wife, is currently being held at Rikers in lieu of $100,000 bail. Yesterday nightly news crews hit the streets to gauge public reaction, and it's interesting how many people couldn't help but laugh a little, while simultaneously condemning this particularly gruesome act of revenge. Bellport resident Jessie Maldanado even admitted to CBS2 that she's considered mutilating her boyfriend's genitals if she caught him cheating. Her boyfriend, who was standing right next to her, sagely added, "I need to get that thought out of her head." What do you think? Is burning, biting, or gluing a man's rod or johnson acceptable punishment for infidelity? And for scorned ladies contemplating vengeance, the Frisky has a thorough roundup of history's most infamous paybacks.

    How the hell do you guys find these rediculously appropriate images for your stories?



    It what other context could that image work other than a crotch being boiled?

    "says he doesn't want his spouse of 21 years to be incarcerated, he just wants a divorce."



    I'd opt for both.

    Imagine that the roles were reversed: man is angry that wife cheated, mutilates her genitals, and now for the rest of her life she's in constant pain. Funny? Why not? What's the difference between a man suffering pain and humiliation and a woman doing the same?



    I'm no expert, but it seems to me that the only reason this seems funny is that it involves a classic comic scenario -- the lowering of a high person (e.g. "king slips in mud"), combined with toilet humor. But if that's the case -- well, hell, what does that say about us? That men are "high" and women are "low," and therefore it's funny when a man is hurt but not vice versa? Are we still stuck there?



    Look -- a woman who is unhappy with her relationship has one option: leave. "Revenge" is no more an option for a woman dealing with a bad relationship than "smacking her around" is for the guys. We can joke about this, but if spousal abuse is wrong, then it's wrong. If it's ok to deal with relationship problems by viciously harming the other person...then let's get rid of those contrary "domestic abuse" laws so that we can all resolve our problems by beating, stabbing, and burning the living shit out of each other.

    Thanks for saving me the time of having to write what you said.



    The only other point that needs to be made is how the 21st century interpersonal conflict is about 'victim power'. Everyone wants to take on the role of the oppressed since it garners favor in the media. Whether it's women like this, Skip Gates, Sarah Palin or the Palestinians. Doesn't matter what the victim originally said or did, only matters that they get to play victim so they can hit back as hard as they want in order to 'level the playing field'.



    It's just 100% BS since it merely turns the victim into the aggressor, and everyone is to blame. As they say in Kindergarten, two wrongs don't make a right.



    This guy said its been 15 - 20 years (probably 10) since he cheated. Nevertheless, if the woman stuck around for over a decade, then she is NOT a victim, this was a premeditated crime and so she should be imprisoned for awhile.

  • hotstepper

    well said.

  • nicemarmot

    I think the reason it's kinda funny is because it's so rare - 98% of cases are the man hurting the woman, so the incongruity is what's funny. Other than that, it's really not funny at all.

  • jules1000

    completely agree.

  • ides_of_march

    Where's the outrage from all the domestic abuse activists?

  • VanessaNYC

    Right here. This feminist thinks is pretty sick.

  • Quidnam

    90% of them don't care about "domestic abuse" per se; they merely use it as a broadly acceptable pretext for attacking patriarchy (real and perceived).

  • felixthecat2

    This story scares me a lot.

  • Mr Mel

    Sort of like sliding down a bannister naked and the last few feet turn into a razor blade.

  • farleft

    That's gruesome. You should write horror movies.

  • jibbly

    I fainted just from reading your comment. I'm still cringing involuntarily at the thought.
