Did you ever see that movie Big Fat Greek Wedding? There's a line in it that I think of in times like this:

The mother & daughter are talking about the father being stubborn: "Ma, Dad is so stubborn. What he says goes. "Ah, the man is the head of the house!"
Mother says:

Quote:

The man is the head, but the woman is the neck. And she can turn the head any way she wants.



(Sorry guys out there! ) But, question is, how does one do that? In my sitch, I think it would benefit him to come up with this "on his own".
