One of the bigshots on the editorial page of the Slimes, Gail Sheehy, actually advocates married women divorcing their husbands when the kids leave or they get to a certain age so they can have "freedom" to do all the things they've wanted to do. Apparently it's awful when men leave their wives to do the same thing, but to feminists like Sheehy it should be what women should do to express themselves...or something.
10 COMMANDMENTS OF MARRIAGE !!!!
Commandment 1
Marriages are made in heaven. But so are thunder and lightning.
Commandment 2
If you want your wife to listen and pay strict attention to every word
you say; talk in your sleep.
Commandment 3
Marriage is grand — and divorce is at least 100 grand!
Commandment 4
Married life is very frustrating. In the first year of marriage, the man
speaks and the woman listens. In the second year, the woman speaks and
the man listens. In the third year, they both speak and the neighbours
listen.
Commandment 5
When a man opens the door of his car for his wife, you can be sure of
one thing: Either the car is new or the wife is.
Commandment 6
Marriage is when a man and woman become as one. The trouble starts when
they try to decide which one.
Commandment 7
Before marriage, a man will lie awake all night thinking about something
you say. After marriage, he will fall asleep before you finish.
Commandment 8
Every man wants a wife who is beautiful, understanding, economical, and
a good cook. But the law allows only one wife.
Commandment 9
Marriage and love are purely matter of chemistry. That is why wives
treat husbands like toxic waste.
Commandment 10
A man is incomplete until he is married. After that, he is finished.
