Of all the things taken from me when I got married, I miss my spine the most.


On another note, quoted from the article - "The scientists videotaped the couples while they discussed each of the issues for 10 minutes.". Who-the-devil pays for this kind of crap? And how to I get on that Gravy Train? I got a video camera too, ya know.

Wives were more demanding—asking for changes in the relationship or in their partner . . .. This held regardless of who had chosen the issue.
. . . men were responding to those messages by agreeing or giving in.”
cant say that im really shocked. didnt need a survey to tell me those things.

'nuff said.

Yes it is. Now, I think we should start some kind of activist rights group or something. Think the ACLU will back us?

...not in my house.
What do you expect to find in a survey of only 70 someodd couples... the only ones that went there are the ones where the wife decreed thats where they were going; probably trying to get free stuff or quick cash....

What result did they expect. Men who wore the pants would never do that silly survey nor let their wives drag them there to waste their time to begin with.
