but you kind of sabotaged them with all the Yokophobia. Yoko wasn't crazy, and it isn't acceptable to call any woman a "bitch".

John is responsible for his own actions towards Cynthia and Julian. He beat Cynthia BEFORE he'd ever heard of Yoko, If John hadn't met Yoko, he probably would have left Cynthia for somebody else anyway(they had only married because John got Cynthia pregnant, which, from what I've heard, was the primary reason for a LOT of weddings in the North of England in the early-to-mid 60's).
