In answer to the original question i think its a case of more would accept than the org would like to admit but nowhere near as many as you would think.

How Many Witnesses Would Really Take Blood?
by minimus inup until the very end, my mother refused blood.
it didn't matter if it was a blurred line or not, the bible says "no blood"!
i wonder if she was in the minority, in her thinking.

The Watchtower's Real Crisis
by JeffT inwhen discussing the watchtowers financial problems, i've generally been of the opinion that they probably are not in a real financial crisis.
i've come to believe that money may be something of an issue, but its wrapped up in a much larger problem.
this came to me this morning when reading about the annual meeting.. i think the society's leadership is just plain out of ideas.

@onager- i would have to let slim comment on his current definition of collapse in order to truly know but that definition has been malleable over a few threads recently, along with his time frame for collapse.
There is virtually zero evidance to sugguest they have problems. They just spent millions on a brand spanking new hq after making billions in real estate sales. The cut backs are just smart biz . Why waste money and man power printing in a digital age? Cut all that crap out and go digital/tv. Welcome to the 2000’s, wt.
slim (and many others) hope for the wt to change in ways THEY want and so see any change as a chink in the cults armour. It remains pipe dreams and school boy fantasies. Its always been a cult and wont change fundamental a thing to make it less culty, only more so. We have plenty of evidence of that over the last ten years.
So whatever slims current definition of collapse and his current time frame (minutes i assume), his premise is forced fundamental change in cultyness, something i predict will never ever happen.

Never ever kiss her ass. Dont clean the fucking house when shes at a meeting. If she gets to go play all day and do nothing for the family then why the hell should you carry the weight??
Be a good husband and ask whats wrong. Try to engage her. If she rejects your efforts then let her know her shit wont be tolerated and if she dosent want like it or want to shape up she knows where the door is. Jw women will take every goddamn inch you give them. Dont give into shitty attitudes after shes been neglecting you all day.
