    What bothers me is that women think they need to train there husbands like animals, why can't you just put up with them like we do with women? It bothers me that women think they need to train their husbands? What the heck? then i would suggest women need training too.

      Thats fine, women will take their men as they are, dont change your ways from day one though, most men court women and once they are with the women for a while change the way they treat the women. Men on the other hand, if we gave a couple hundred pounds, you gave to accept us, if our hair falls out, you have to accept us, if we get some crazy desease and can NEVER have sex again, you have to accept us. Fair is fair

    This is just disgusting. Women claim to fight for equality and to be taken seriously and one of your sisters in arms throws out this drivel furthering the stereotype of women as conniving shrews. Look, both men and women???if a significant other exhibits an undesirable trait when you meet them, stop thinking you can change that behavior just because you now have a ring on your finger. This is why so many marriages end in divorce. Divorces usually initiated by women by the way???Why? Usually because they thought they could change the guy and could not; or worse yet, actually got him to change and now thinks of him as a lap dog with no spine. Stop the madness people???.

    It is so simple, just *** your man! I mean *** him till he doesnt want it anymore. *** him everyday till he says stop. I dont mean just spred your legs. I mean go to town on his dick. then you will have not only a trained man, but a loyal and happy one. Oh, yeah take it in the ass at least once a month. It's the icing on the cake!

    for Likinga: It is also true that women will sit, roll over, and wag their tales at the sight of an opportunity for money and security. Unfortunately, women like you are the very epitome of the warped perception of men and women in America right now. Yes, men by nature are attracted to big breasts. Just as women, by nature, are attracted to money and an opportunity for a free meal ticket. Many women use feminism in cases where it benefits them (have their cake and eat it too), but the reality is that they are spoiled and lazy and would prefer not to go the extra mile. Many of these feminists denounce old-fashioned women who are good to their men. There is a certain jealousy there as well as insecurity. Many women now-a-days want to compete with men to supplant their insecurities and inadequacies. No wonder why these women can't hold on to a good man who is a leader. They need a man they can control like a dog, but which they get bored of and fantasize about a real man. And lskinga, in response to uneducated men reading newsweek and should be looking at car magazines and Bikini magazines. I have a Master's degree and am going for my P.H.D. Instead, why don't you got get your homemaker magazines, fantasy romance novels with Favio, and watch your soap operas and talk shows raising your hand up high yelling that women should rule the world. You are without a doubt an IDIOT.

    The title and over all reference may be a little offensive but the undelying concept is not new. Ever read a business management book? Men have been using this technique on other men for decades. And generally those men are the ones getting ahead. In business there are two choices; manipulation or intimidation and initimidation is a very difficult thing for a woman to pull off. I do belive that hard work and strong ethics are valuable but not necessarily required. Finally, lets face it..... We are all trained animals. Everything we do, we learned from our parents, teachers, coworkers, medica etc... If you you think every though that comes to you mind is an original one, you're not only narcacistic, you're a fool.

    All she is doing is making it easier on both of them.

    Positive comments work far better than criticism any day for either spouse. Comment and praise when something is done for you is a great reinforcement rather than "Do I have to do EVERYTHING???" "I really appreciate it when you empty the dishwasher for me-thanks!" is a better approach. Nagging reinforces the fact that your spouse doesnt want to be home with you right now!!!!

    I think that its funny. Yeah, it goes against all of todays rules. But come on. Look at it realistically. We do this in relationships. We are people, not gods. We're not above animal behaviors. If it works to rid a marriage of certain little pet peeves, then where is the harm. If I use it on him, fine. If he uses it on me, fine.

    And, as a very independent young woman, I'll admit that Ive used my wiles to get what I want from men. Once you master the art, its not so hard. But, Im not above drooling over a man who meets my criteria, either.

    Anyone with any sense should know that "training" is just human nature. It is sooo easy to see that is the simplest basis of psychology. Most behaviors are learned, this woman is just helping her husband learn the right behaviors. Don't you see that she is making things better for both of them?

    All this is basic psychology from psychology 101. This is the same "idea" as I was brought up with - "kill 'em with kindness" - and believe me it works, at least in the South. Also "honey draws more flies than vinegar". All these "sayings" are the same thing as "training". Don't make such a big deal out of things and both people in a relationship will be much happier, that is why I have been married almost 29 years.

    I agree with a lot of these comments. A relationship is work, both the man and woman need to learn what is expected of them and learn how to compromise. A man should not be trained to do a house hold chore, he should know what his significant other wants out of him and vice versa. If you have to secretly "train" your spouse then maybe you need to look at your self and ask yourself why you feel you cannot communicate with your significant other. Communication and patients, that's all it takes. No, your husband isn't going to start picking up his socks without being told right away. You have to be patient and just ask NICELY "honey will you please pick up your dirty laundry and put it in the laundry basket." And women give it up a little more often. Sorry men, but you can be manipulated a little with sex. Give your husband more sex and I guarentee you he will do more of what you ask. Give a little, get a little

    I totally agree- when you compliment or notice when your spouse does something to please you, like emptying the dishwasher, a positive comment will work great!! Its far better than nagging and being negative or criticizing constantly. "I am so glad you noticed the dishwasher was full- thanks so much!" with a kiss works better than "Do I have to do EVERYTHING??"

    Another book to make men look like sub-human, emotionless, animals. Yep, this will definitely improve male-female relationships...

  • Posted By: common_sense_101 @ 02/14/2008 1:40:31 PM

    I think maybe instead of whining about the article you should use it to your advantage... there's got to be something that your wife does that irritates you... or maybe you should write a book titles ' How to teach your wife to drive' Undoubtably most women need it.

    I fail to understand why women feel they have to "train" their husbands??? How about communicating with him on an adult level. Sit down and have a discussion with him, talk to him. Last time I checked, husbands were human being too, capable of communication. I prefer to treat my husband like an equal, not some sublevel human who needs to be manipulated. I guess that's why I have been married to the same man for thirty years.

    I never have to ask my husband to take at the garbage- right from the start I gave him a smooch and a big hug every time he did it! You should see what he gets when he cooks dinner! There is nothing wrong with physically showing your husband you appreciate him because it's how men connect with their women.

      Positive re-enforcement or manipulation??? Manipulation if you do it to get what you want, nothing more, nothing gained, everything to lose! However, its positive re-enforcement if you do it because you really appreciate what he has done and you want to show it. Your mature man will respond. Call it what you want, when it real feelings being shared, its all good -- for both!!

    So much generalization going on here. Women do this, Men do that. You can't put ALL women or ALL men into any one category. Unless of course you're saying, "All men pee standing up." But know what? Even THAT'S too broad a generalization. So stop with the stereotypes. "Today's women are great dog trainers but not loving partners." Looks like you picked some bad women- maybe you should stay away from the dog park and join a church group.
