The Dr. Phil show is like a “scared straight” program for young men thinking of getting married. 

It is amazing how there is simply no analysis whatsoever of the role that a woman might have played in the breakdown of a relationship.  It is always the man’s fault. 

Do those women look like the caring, supportive women? Or do they look like women who nagged all day long?  When their husbands leave them (rather than saying “yes dear” as women expect them to), the women are genuinely shocked.  To make themselves feel better they say that it was a “younger women” to blame. 

That woman on the show a few weeks ago that puts on make-up before her husband comes home from work will stay married.  The woman on the show who decided that oral sex was only for pre-marriage is probably already divorced and wondering why her support cheques never show up. 

Most women have turned their husbands down for sex so many times, that their husbands don’t even ask for sex anymore.  Then the wives say: “He must be satisfied with our sex life, because otherwise he would ask for sex”. 

If would be great if there was an episode on wives who were unsatisfied with their sex lives.  Would the advice be that the women should do more housework to get their husbands in the mood for sex (this being the advice that men are given)?  I doubt it.  I think that the advice would be that it is a man’s obligation and duty to make sure that his wife feels special and so he should have sex with her whenever she wants. 

I don’t know why women complain about being wives.  If any woman wants to support me while I stay home, I would be more than happy to oblige.  I would be a good wife too.  I would make sure that you are constantly notified when you didn’t do your share of the housework.  I would have sex with you whenever I want.  And if I ever get unhappy, I would take the kids and house, and you could send monthly cheques to me for the rest of your life.
