Costa Rica: Some women swindle with domestic violence law

Submitted by Matt on Thu, 2007-09-20 13:49

Thanks to Marc A. for this. Article here. Excerpt:

'Women are kicking their mates out of the house in record numbers in Costa Rica. Some of them are enjoying it and using the law designed to protect women against domestic violence to swindle expats. Many expats come to Costa Rica in search of a relationship and end up shooting themselves in the foot by making bad choices.

Police in Heredia say women are abusing Law 8589 Article 7. The article states, “In order to protect the victims, they will be able to request, from the start of the complaint, the protective measures contemplated in the law against domestic violence, as well as the necessary precautionary measures foreseen in the penal code of procedure.”'

We men in the western world can get such abuse without having to travel!

The fun part is that women for the most part don't realize the blowback that these anti-male legal biases create. Since the cost of picking Ms. Wrong can be catastrophic, men take greater care in selecting women -- far greater care. It is better to go without than to risk being enslaved.

The majority of women are so stupid and greedy that they think slamming American men is going to help them in the long run but it will actually hurt them as American men have already shown no interest in American women and now these women in Costa Rica are putting themselves out there as greedy buffoons as well.

Thus soon American men will no longer deal with Costa Rican women also, then who will these Costa Rican whores leech off of?

Of course then the Costa Rican whores and chivalrous men could create laws -- like american women did -- to force men to deal with tacky women by limiting their choices. Instead of *gasp* acting like they have some damn sense and respecting men and loving them for who they are rather than emasculating them, exploiting them, challenging them and stealing from them every second they can get. IMBRA anyone?
