From Laura Doyle's web site

Like millions of women, I wanted my marriage to be better. But when I tried to get my husband to be more romantic, helpful and ambitious, he withdrew-- and I was lonely and exhausted from controlling everything. Desperate to be in love with my man again, I decided to stop telling him what to do and how to do it.

So is Laura Doyle more about giving up control or more about inauthenticly kowtowing... submitting to the H, fake ditz, the calculating coquette? I looked at some things but didn't go very deep.

Blackfoot, good to see your input here. Underdog is one sharp cookie and has many things going for her.

You two keep it up. I am sure you two have some very interesting things to say. I see some matching abilitis for intellectual exchanges that might be good for both of you.
