Quote: But I am still of the belief that there is more truth in ONE CHAPTER of Dr. Laura's book than there is in all of TSSM or PM, but it's somehow SO simple that people (mostly, women) dismiss it as, well, simplistic. I base this opinion on the testimonials of WOMEN to Dr. Laura's book, not on some male "gosh, I-wish-it-were-so-simple" belief of my own, by the way.
I've read that book. There are good points in it, and I have to say I'd love it... proclaim its gospel, too, were I a man. It takes the entire responsibility of the health and well-being of the marriage and places it directly on the shoulders of the woman. What man wouldn't love it?
If my H were as stupid and Neanderthal as Dr. Laura makes them out to be, I could see it being pretty good advice. But truly, I think Dr. Laura has some kind of Freudian thing going on...
Sorry. I'm my H's wife, not his mother. If I want to manipulate him to helll and back, I'll take her advice. But I really don't have the time nor the inclination to play that game.
