Police say a 20-year-old woman faces an aggravated assault charge after she bit her boyfriend, broke a picture frame across his face and swung at him with a sword during an argument about him not doing the dishes.

The woman was arrested Thursday afternoon at the couple’s apartment, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reported on its Web site.

The 21-year-old man told police that he became involved in an argument because the woman was upset that the dishes were not clean. Police Lt. Paul Henderson said the woman told the man to leave the apartment, but he refused.

Henderson said the woman then tried to physically remove the man. During the ensuing struggle, the woman bit the man’s right shoulder and broke a picture frame across his face, causing visible cuts, Henderson said.

The woman then grabbed an approximately 2-foot sword and swung it at him, but missed, police said.

The woman was released from a Mansfield jail after posting a $10,000 bond, jail officials said.

What’s with all these people carrying (and using!) swords this year? And did she actually think swordplay would persuade him into doing housework?

    Is it so hard to help out a little?

    I don’t understand why this is under the “crime” category…

    She should get a kendo bamboo sword and beat the hell out of him with it or she could have ripped her blouse and had him arrested for domestic violence. In either case he sounds like a dip shit and they both sound like white trash. It is Texas after all.

    I agree. An oft-heard saying comes to mind: ‘Those who live by the sword die by those who live by the gun.’ Heh.

    Obviously she never used it.

    Like most people these days she should have used the point and shoot, clumsy gun.

    A sword is a weapon of finesse. It takes actual skill and talent to wield and appreciate.

    Jägermeister, thank you for reminding me that the answer for everything in life can be found in Monty Python. Or Flintstone reruns…

    Finally: proof that I’m not the only homeowner in America that doesn’t own a dishwasher!

    All you Texas haters out there… just act as if shit like that never goes down in your state! Tell me where you live and I could find several stories of crazy domestic violence happening in your neck of the woods.

    It boils down to “kids” trying to place house together and guess what… they have no relationship skills. Domestic abuse is much more prevalent than people think too. Her problem is that she got caught.

    If the apartment was hers (ie. he wasnt on the lease), isn’t removal by force reasonable?

    I am terrible with dishes. Glad I don’t date.
