Ex JW Diaries Exactly👍I know it’s ridiculous 🤷🏼‍♀️how are two people suppose to know one another when they go on these chaperoned dates all the time there’s no privacy. After you get married is not the time to get to know this person. There is nothing wrong with getting together with a group of friends every once in a while but not all the time. This is why I never married into the organization I was nearly engaged to a brother I never knew what happened to him after I got disfellowshipped.

My ex-husband met the elders regarding abusing me. During his meeting he told them about his indicredtions with prostitutes. They put him on private reproof but left it up to him to tell me, eventually he did. None of them, felt the need to have a meeting with both of us to ensure that I was aware, none checked to see how I was. Later, when I brought it up in shepherding call, I was told that as long as I had sex with him after finding out, it could no longer be used as grounds for divorce. This was a "rule" that I wasn't aware of. After more abuse, affairs and yeast infections, I finally walked away from my 7 year marriage. The elders came to my home and tried to convince me to stay because "it would bring reproach on Jehovah's name", I didn't have "enough proof" he was cheating and my separation and divorce would be "unscriptual" and lastly, there were sisters who endured more than I did but they stayed with their husbands. That was the last straw. I left the marriage and the organization and never looked back.

[@junejunie2284]

Between your husband's infidelities and the infections he passed on to you, the elders keeping you out of the loop, denying you support and counseling you to endure more, your story covers nearly every form of abuse I can think of at the moment.

16:40 Wally, they don't want to use the word rape because in their minds, the problem is not the forcing. The problem is the nature of the acts - "perversions". They only mention forcing to establish that the one being forced is innocent of the sin. If a husband was forcing his wife to have vanilla, Watchtower-approved sexual intercourse, then she would have no scriptural grounds for divorce and they wouldn't consider it rape because in their twisted worldview they call sex the "marriage due" - the wife *owes it* to her husband so scripturally she is not in a position to refuse. The worse that the elders will say of the husband is that he's not treating his wife tenderly or with consideration. And they'll probably counsel the wife to be more submissive and compliant with his sexual needs.

[@caribbeanman3379]

The JW position on divorce is one of those areas that really highlight their unreasonable, legalistic, pharisaic nature. A spouse can commit all manner of serious abuses - murdering the children; attempting to murder the other mate; or battering them to the point that they end up in the hospital ICU - and the innocent spouse still doesn't have legitimate grounds for divorce. Only the act of having sex with someone else is grounds for divorce. Essentially, the JW view of marriage reduces it to nothing more than a contract about sex since it can only be broken by illegitimate sex. Disgusting!

[@ladyofmyths2786]

So from some of those articles it seems they assume an abuser is an unbeliever, but my father was a believer and was still abusive, but in the end of all of it even though my mother was told by elders she couldn't divorce my dad, she cheated on him so she could leave him, of course she was disfellowshiped and made to seem like an evil jezabel. She divorced my dad and never went back to the kingdom hall, and I never blamed her once even when my father and step-mother where threatening to send me to live with her because she was now disfellowshiped and worldly, trying to convince me she was bad. And when I was finally shipped off I was happy about it, but I never told my father that.

What about the 2 witness rule? How does that work? What if one spouse says they're being abused but the other spouse denies it? I've witnessed elders, flat out, call a woman a liar when she was telling the truth about a problem in her marriage. The situation wasn't concerning abuse but the elders immediately believed the husband and threatened the wife with disfellowshiping. Well, until I (an eavesdropping child at the time) provided physical proof and said, "How dare you come into my mother's house and call her a liar!"

[@exjehovahswitness]

yeah that is how things would go I guess when you take the bible literally

[@janeneshireese]

If it's the wife that goes to the elders the husband has the option to be present at any meeting with the wife (the wife is not given the same option). They ask about the abuse in front of the abuser which is completely wrong. If the husband denies it or if she's too intimidated or scared of retaliation they then read scriptures about the evils of lying and tell her to keep quiet and obey. The only way the husband is ever punished by jw's is if he admits the abuse or maybe if it's public (arrested, tried and convicted). I wish I could say this was the exception but it is the norm in cases of abuse.

[@ladyspyre]

My mom ended up having an affair with her coworker to be able to get divorced through Watchtower rules. Of course she was disfellowshipped, but even then the elders tried to counsel her out of divorce, because my dad didn't want to accept it. My dad was physically and verbally abusive, and an alcoholic, but they still treated her adultery as more of a crime. It was not the first time in my mom's (at that time) young life that the elders had counseled her to endure abuse. Up until then, my mom was the most virtuous person I knew. You never would've expected her to commit adultery with how straight-laced and devout she was. They treated my mom like crap after that, but I'm grateful she found the strength to go through that to get us out. Of course, then the legal courts gave dad religious custody of us. But by the time I was legally allowed to choose my religion, I was awake and ready to leave. Due to the adultery, I think my dad would've been able to remarry. He had a couple talking relationships with older ladies (his age--probably not a huge shock to say my parents are 14 years apart, so he was already much older when they divorced) at some point, but he didn't want to remarry so obviously nothing ever became of those friendships. I have to admit, I'm glad no other women had to be subjected to being married to my dad and suffering the elders' counsel.

This is a very serious topic. I remember this woman that was studying and her husband was a non believer. He would beat her for going to meetings. I was a 10 year old boy when we were taking her back home after an evening meeting. She was terrified but was told not to leave him. The grown sisters in the car pulled up to the curb and just let her out. I felt like they were throwing her into the Roman colosseums center full of lions. It was a very empty feeling for a little boy to be unable to do anything. I was thinking about the skit you did with the Parking Attendant and Jehovah. "If a sister is severely abused and her life threatened by her JW husband and she decided to divorce and remarry what should be done?" Parking Attendant "DEATH!" Jehovah Parking Attendant "Sounds a little harsh but I can see it may be fare to kill him." Jehovah "Not him! Death for her for remarrying. She's an unrepentant adultress!" 😢 😭 How despickable Watchtower rules are.

I used that word on Reddit about a story I heard about a sister that divorced her husband because he 'forced' a type of relations that at the time you could divorce for in JW land. It was told to me so casually. Also, I am sure I heard that word forced many times as just normal behavior for heads of households (men). I came back to Reddit to an onslaught of That's Grape!!! How dare you! You are horrible! (not exact words) Maybe it was. IDK, because I got the gist that she wanted to divorce him and used it as a spiritual excuse. I heard it in the 90s or 00s, it happened in the early 70s. Also, the only word you could use with the elders and other JWs was forced, like the articles you read. I guess you had to be there hearing the story from my aunt. I'm glad to get that straight in my head, however it was like getting schooled by my narc dad.

Also, homosexual sex with another person did not constitute grounds for divorce in the divorce courts themselves. Watchtower falling back on the lame excuse that in lands where child abuse reporting is not mandated they don't need to report has been completely in line with their practice of only doing whatever is 'legally' required or established already eg. the issues you mentioned.

I think you missed something. Yes there are situations as you did talk about. The real problem is that the forbid oral or anal sex. Reading between the lines the make some way to excuse to have oral or anal sex if the husband fores the wife.

yeah I am going to do a whole video on gooffy sex stuff

[@johannpascher]

​ @JW Thoughts Tanks for answering! Would be great if you could do an other video on the subject. Gives the woman some excuse to engage in practices like oral or anal sex because she can say she is forced to engage. Is somehow a bit like with blood transfusion, if authority's force one by a curt destitution then it is no problem to take a transfusion, so it is here in Austria.

Listen man, we all have our own opinions on what we think. Everyone I know who stayed a Jehovah's witness is happily married. Well actually just the people who wants to be married. Hope you have a good day :)

JW’s like to keep a lid on the fact they have a LOT of marriage problems within the cult. We’ve had talks on the circuit level on the “Giving Attention to the needs of the circuit” at past assemblies in Romeoville outside of Chicago.
