    I would think youd be pretty mad if you were set on fire though!
    I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.

    Are you sure about that??? maybe its just a very clever way women have devloped that allows men to think they are right and giving in rather than tell them that actually they are completly and utterly wrong.

    exactly...sometimes we just accept the inevidible in means of peace.

    The fact is that we let you win in spite of knowing how right we are. Thus, just to prove my... er your point: Congratulations, you just won!

    Hey our marriage has evolved to a similar understanding. I wonder if most marriages that last do this. We should save this thought for our discussion of Shakespeare's The Taming of the Shrew.

    Not all I guess, my father follows that well guarded secret , but my brother is just the opposite

    Oh he may not have learned yet. How long has your brother been married? It took us a good number of years to reach this, and every once in a while we still escalate.

    He has been married for three years, and I see that his wife is the tolerant one (I should direct her to the radical feminists talks thread ).

    Well, that could be part of the problem. If she doesn't fight back then your brother will never learn. Like all wives she's got to make his life miserable. At least for a little while.

    So, in biology, studying genes, we learned that genes are defective if they don't match . . . if you wanna go by that, all men/boys are just genetic defects, because they've got the XY. But, it only took a few years until we decided that we liked a few of said "genetic defects" enough to put up with them . . . "can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em."
