That's one of the problems with courting, isn't it? Sometimes men are on their very best behaviour, and then another side of them emerges once they're married. I've seen it happen to friends of mine. I think that is a lesser evil than having them act like creeps and pigs to every woman they meet, though.
Yes, it frightens me very much. As I said to another lady here, if a man thinks like a pig but holds his tongue, you know at the very least that he has self-restraint. Those who don't, and take their anger out on us, who knows what they might do? It makes me think that it isn't quite safe to go out alone.
