I'm watching Judge Judy (because that's what I do) and I become so incensed over her treatment of this last case that I felt the world should know.

The plaintiff who is 50+ years old, allowed the defendant who is 30-something to move into his house without paying rent or utilities because she needed help and...he had feelings for her. He had an email from her where she stated she was sorry, but didn't feel anything for him because she had already lost her heart to "Dwayne." The defendant stands in court now engaged to some other guy who isn't Dwayne, and Judge Judy stops the case to take a moment to lecture to the fiancé that this woman would break his heart too.

It is established that the defendant took advantage of the plaintiff because the plaintiff allowed her to and the defendant, literally, is never allowed to speak. She is allowed one "yes" and when she doesn't offer it up dutifully, Judge Judy talks over her lecturing her and her fiancé about "good form" and "bad women." She then rules on the side of the plaintiff in the amount of $1500.00.

Now here's the thing: old dude is suing this woman because she took advantage of him. If she had slept with him for some amount of time he probably wouldn't have sued her, or if he had, it would recognized as the spurned lover suit that it is. As it stands, he allowed her to stay at his house with no payment agreement and no understanding as to what she would pay him, if she would ever pay him anything. But once she brought another guy home he pulls her into court for back rent and utilities.

Should you take advantage of men? No. Should men who are stupid enough to let pretty girls stay in their houses be allowed to sue them because said pretty girl was tasteless? No! I don't know if I can go on watching Judge Judy; basically she uses her show as an opportunity to preach at the people in her courtroom and she seems to pass judgment based more on who was more "morally" upright opposed to who was actually cheated and deserved the money.

This is crap! Judy what are you doing to me? When someone asks, actually ASKS, another person to take advantage of them can't some form of social darwinism reign here? Old dude was dumb enough to let the chick move in with him without any form of written agreement, and he's pissed that his abundant niceness didn't land her in his bed. To this I say you're being a schmoe shouldn't mean you get money! I'm irate with Judy's moralizing. It's a good thing the show is only a half hour long or I would be in cardiac arrest by now.

This is what happens you have bad cable and are avoiding reading depressing plays. Your day is reduced to Judge Judy and heartburn. I think people that are dumb enough to let those they want to sleep with move in with them should have to pay the rest of us for tolerating their stupidity. Case closed.
