It sounds like Dr. Laura is recycling a book I read years ago called

handfuls ???

Is that proper grammar usage now??

And men are going to feel more like the family pet than the lord of the realm.

That's a risk I'm willing to suffer. It's kinda hard to get that "lord of the realm" feeling when all you get is b!tching and nagging after 12 hours at the office.

I cook meals, I do the dishes, I do the laundry, I pick up after myself, and I bring home flowers. Sure, I ain't perfect, but every once in a while, I wouldn't mind being treated like I was...

Bow-wow.

One of the tenants of modern civilization.

I like Dr. Laura. If you ever listen toher radio show, you will find she is no-nonsense about the differences between men and women and understands the natural desires/needs of both, sans this twisted PC world we live in. I'm fortunate in that I have a loving wife who allows herself to be a woman and me to be a man, in fact she insists on that arrangement.

Dr. Laura also makes another point about morals worth pondering.......women have the "ultimate" power...from womb (mother) to vagina (sex), men are "judged and approved" by women.... What women dont allow, men wont do! Men behave badly when women accept it.....or in a nut shell..."The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world"...To make my point...Any guys here that weren't positively influenced by their Moms??????

Even if it is his fault, he isn't clever enough to fix it.

In my situation, this is exactly right.

I think what Dr. Laura is saying is "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you" The Golden Rule. Common courtesy. We have to accept that men and women do not think and act alike. And that's OK. In fact, it's more than OK. Couples need to stop competing with each other and work together. After 30 years of marriage hubby and I FINALLY understand this. It Works, trust me!

But, she can get what she wants out of him - the garbage out to the curb or dinner and a movie...    ...he might feel moved to bring the trashcans in from the curb.

Honestly, men never do anything because they're just too lazy.  Here women work all day to pay the family's bills, --the woman is even forced to pay for everything if he decides to shack up with someone else and sponge off the child support.
