[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The one where my senior faculty colleague regaled us (2 or 3 junior faculty couples, where all 3 women were academics) with tales of beating his wife, thinking he’s lost everything (she was the one with the money to subsidize their museum-quality art collection), and how surprised and grateful he was that she came back to him “purring like a kitten.”). All this performed at his house, in front of his wife (who would nod occasionally and smile.) None of us could get out of there fast enough. [/quote] Ew. this could have been my FIL. [/quote] Where did he teach? (Gotta know how many of these guys there are/were!)[/quote] I don’t feel comfortable saying! But this is definitely a type - narcissistic, womanizing old academic dude with zero self-awareness, often sadly abetted by women of his generation conned into believing his “brilliance” makes up for the cheating and abuse. Yuck. [/quote]
