Chris' anger mangement problem?

Chris really does have an anger management problem towards Anastasia, not to mention undertones of sexism, "If you would just sit there and take your punishment like a woman!" It is very disturbing and this is only what WE see, not even what is going on behind closed doors. What is also disturbing is that he won't take responsibility for his behaviour. He needs to learn how to manage his frustrations without calling people idiots or yelling.

Oh boy, that fight between the two of them at the winery was disturbing. The uber sexist and patriarchal remarks he was making had my blood boiling. Some real gems:
"Your father obviously didn't spank you when he needed to", "I carried a barrel half a kilometer; if you think you're me you carry it. If you can talk to me equally carry it", "You need to suck it up and take being yelled at when you deserve it", "Take it like a woman"

She of course proceeded to sulk like a child instead of sticking up for herself. She really should have just told him to eff off right then and there. How any woman could be with a guy like that. Ughhhhh

Well, I believe they have split up now. I guess maybe someone has opened her eyes as to how pathetic he was and how useless she was?
It was clear right from the beginning that it was little more than a physical relationship, and they fooled themselves into thinking that's what makes a life long relationship.

Chris speak the truth. Western women nowadays are too spoiled. Chris, being from a Greek family, actually knows better on how a woman should behave. Bravo to him.
