Uh, so? Don't lay down on the floor, and I won't wipe my feet on ya! Certainly wasn't spoiled by her Daddy, but don't take crap from men, and teaches her daughter the same, class.

American women run the show, guys we are toast!
Uh, so? Don't lay down on the floor, and I won't wipe my feet on ya! Certainly wasn't spoiled by her Daddy, but don't take crap from men, and teaches her daughter the same, class.
" . . . after-all I am one of the biggest offenders!"
Oh good. Now all of us younger guys looking for a girl with some modest values know who to punch in the nose.
" . . . I am one of the biggest offenders! My daughter is totally spoiled! At age 15, finishing school when Paris. At 16, bought her a car. At 17, took her on a trip to Hawaii and then on to Australia. Let her have free run of the house while I am gone...all summer for the last three years. This Spring, 17 days across Europe. She even has her own seperated section of the house, with her own entrance so she can entertain friends without bothering me at the other end of the house . . . "
Just what do you think you are accomplishing by this? Do you hallucinate that your daughter will love you more?
" . . . And this is typical of what we fathers do for our daughters. The result is that most young guys just can't compete with Daddy Bank! The average young man will have to knock himself out to try to give these ladies the things they are accustom to! And when he does not live up to their standard these girls will get pissed. And stay that way for life!"
The greatest gift a father can give her daughter is a balanced set of values. With regard to what I am about to say, ideally it is the mother that sets the example here:
I teach my girls, as they grow into womanhood, that they must gain their freedom and independence through the demonstration of responsible behavior and good choices. Mistakes are allowed, but repetition of the same mistake is OUT. It is expected of them to finish high school, learn a profession or some skill that will create for them their own bank account. When they turn 16 and want their own car, they must work and save and at least pay for part of it.
When they become women, they should be completely self-reliant, educated, independent, self-assured, empowered and confident. They must never choose a boy friend, fiance or husband based on that man's financial status. They must never be in the position to be dominated, threatened or controlled by the asswhipe husband who makes the money . . . they should have their own money so that in the event that hubby turns into a buttmunch and holds money over their heads in order to control them, they can confidently say, "sorry dear, but you better stop your shite or I am out the door, because I am not going to take your abusive, controlling crap, not for one minute. I have my own car, my own money, and I do love you, but I can leave right now and be just fine monetarily . . . bite me, my love".
How many poor women get stuck in abusive and controlling relationships, having no where to go because the man has all the money and she has little or no education or skills and confidence to make it on her own?
Simon and Garfunkel said it best when they said, "teach your children well . . . "

You all go buy, read and put into practice 'The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands', recently written by Dr. Laura.

Maybe we already know how to care for and nurture our relationships and don't need to read books written by Dr. Laura. Last time I checked, Dr. Laura was Jewish by the way.

XW here, driving through Iowa......... where is it that Maverick lives again? Hope he likes my dog.
Maybe Jennifer Lopez needs to read Dr. Laura's book, ey?
Not all reviewers and readers share enthusiasm for Dr. Laura's reverse sexism by the way.

Don't buy this woman bashing book!!!!!, February 18, 2004
Reviewer: A reader from ANYTOWN, HI
This book is so horrible, Laura Schlessinger (Author) must have some built up anger agianst women. If you have any self respect as a woman DO NOT buy this book!!! Just to give you an idea of how bad it is here is a quote from the book
" remember without him you are a sorry excuse for a person " and that's only in the introduction. In my opinion if you really want to make your husband happy, be happy with yourself. This book just basically tells you to forget about your self and do everything a man says because he's always right. I suggest more of a self help book, than an obey from your master book. --This text refers to the Audio CD edition

Oh, yeah, right away...sure.
Just as soon as my husband goes out and buys, reads, and puts into practice The Proper Care and Feeding of Wives.
Cause, let me tell you, I've done that "abase yourself and be the obedient, submissive little wifey" thing. You know what it got me? More taken advantage of, less respect, less happiness.
I have no idea how long you've been married, but I'm coming up on 22 years. And if I had to chose today between being married (and I do love my husband, I just also love myself) and being myself, he'd be out the door.
Fortunately, he's smarter than that. But it hasn't been an easy road.
Time to get the fire hose ladies! Please don't fight....until I can sell some tickets!
Am I going to have to call Visa and put a limit on your credit cards? Maverick

Hey, you started it, Mister. You men may think that everything can be solved with the prompt application of your fire hose, but if you don't put that thing away you're going to be very, very sorry.
We 'women of a certain age' know what to do to men who wave their fire hoses at us. And it's not pleasant. Ok, well it's pleasant for us, but not the fire hose.
Got your sword, Xena??
Now that's just mean!
I have a couple of lady friends that would not be too happy with you for messin' with my equipment.
Are you trying to get this locked!!!!!Maverick....I added this little guy so you would know I was laughing! Don't want you to think the wrong thing!
