The Village Woman Who Poisoned Abusive Husbands: Women Who Took Revenge on Violence — Relationship
In this article

Once Upon a Time

Once Upon a Time
There was a small village in our country, where long ago lived a woman who felt it was her mission to save her fellow women from abusive husbands. In the village, husbands who made their families’ lives miserable died one after another under strange circumstances—mostly after meals or drinks. Despite these eerie similarities, the mystery only stirred neighborhood gossip. It’s a chilling story. Honestly, I wouldn’t want to live in a community where my neighbor has such a side gig—and is right to do so.

Pea Stew, With a Twist

Pea Stew, With a Twist
A vivid example of revenge born from helpless anger: an abused woman, in this intense and justified state of mind, elegantly spat into her husband’s pea stew—secretly, in the kitchen—before serving it. Sure, it might make us smile now, but the guilty thrill after such acts never erases the harsh judgment we hold of ourselves—because these actions humiliate us.

Toothbrush – You’re Doing It Wrong

Toothbrush – You’re Doing It Wrong
We women can be fierce, often acting before thinking. Many might consider this daily: dipping their abuser’s toothbrush into the porcelain sink. But think twice! First, you’ll probably never confess what you did—fear of retaliation is real. Second, if you try to make up later with a kiss, nausea might just ruin the moment.

Chandeliers Are Fragile – Don’t Play the Avenging Angel

Chandeliers Are Fragile – Don’t Play the Avenging Angel
A rolling pin is a handy kitchen tool but can cause serious harm. I always cringe at cartoons showing it as a husband-disciplining weapon. If you practice swinging it in the living room, your chandelier might shatter into glass confetti—and cleaning that up isn’t safe either. Plus, it’s easy for someone to wrest it away from you, or for you to hurt yourself if you hold it wrong. Keep rolling pins for safe kitchen use only.

What Can You Do for Yourself?

What Can You Do for Yourself?
First, don’t drown in self-pity or obsess over current or extreme emotional wounds. Instead, assess your financial and emotional situation. Repeat to yourself that you’re a capable individual who can make independent decisions, knowing exactly who you are and what you want. Take action in a safe, well-planned, and organized way, deviating only slightly from your plan. If your situation feels hopeless or life-threatening, reach out to the NANE Association for help. In crisis, call 06-80-505-101, available every evening from 6 to 10 PM except Wednesdays. Many might smile at these stories, but imagine the daily fear and uncertainty of someone living in danger. Some women find the strength to leave such relationships and stand tall. Superhuman perseverance, self-belief, emotional intelligence, humor, and friends help a lot. But wouldn’t it be better if parents and schools taught everyone how to live well? Emotional intelligence can and should be developed. Teaching healthy ways to release tension is just as important.
