This
article is in relation to an FIU football player having a boiling pot of hot
water poured on him by his girlfriend because “she was not receiving enough of
his attention”. It has been confirmed that Mary Gaspar, 20, from Miami Gardens,
FL is currently 5 months pregnant with Jonnu Smith, FIU tight end, baby and that
she allegedly poured a pot of boiling hot water on her boyfriend on October 31st.
It is evident that there was
a power struggle between the couple and in this case the only way the
girlfriend (or the submissive individual) found to gain power of her boyfriend
(the dominant individual) was to physically injure him. In doing so, she was
able to “even the playing field” almost, and make herself feel equal to her
counterpart. This incident follows the gender constructs that women are the more
emotional gender, and probably due to her hormonal imbalance because of her
pregnancy, she felt compelled to go through with this act, and in retrospect,
knows she is extremely wrong for her actions towards Mr. Smith.
