Eternal celebrity Zsa Zsa Gabor has been a battered wife, not once, not

idea, the Hungarian hussy says:
"I love it. I like to know that the man has the upper hand, that I make a
man mad enough so that he beats me,"
she said during a taping of the Mike Douglas Show earlier this week.
According to Zsa Zsa, some of her husbands
hit her "a little bit more, some a little bit less." No one's inviting Zsa
Zsa to the next consciousness-raising session.
