Customer Reviews

A great change in philosophy for this era

These days men are expected to be the leader while their authority as leader is stripped from them thus destroying leadership rule 101. This book helps clarify issues as men see it. Just great it was written by a woman

Great advice from a very wise woman

It may be hard for a lot of people to admit, but Dr. Laura Schlessinger has some very good & basic advice for managing relationships. Consider discarding your excess, pointless & misguided pride & anger & learn about the original, historic and very sensible approach to marriage. When women & men realize that they have completely different yet equally important roles to play in marriage, married life can become so much happier & fulfilling for both parties. Another excellent book by Dr. Schlessinger.

Right-on, Again!

Dr. Laura has hands-down followed up "Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands" with a first class sequel. It takes guts and wisdom to take on the mutated women's movement. Dr. Laura clearly illustrates just exactly how women really do have much more power over their own lives and over men than the other way around. She demonstrates that it is how they realize and use their power which makes everyone around them miserable or happy - most of all themselves. This is truly THE MOST EQUALITY-BASED BOOK I've read to date. This is what the women's movement was meant to be. We could have opened history books to learn the same from men or women who've misused power and ended up unhappy or destroyed. But since most never read or learn from history, most are doomed to repeat it, with too many women ending up making themselves miserable by following ancient historical follies promoted by the "modern" women's movement. Bad advice is so commonly practiced: "Hatred, bad treatment, control, manipulation and abuse of men" is deserved and justified and "will not back fire" on women. Dr. laura illustrates how it works the other way around too, for jerky men. It not only takes someone with real wisdom to illustrate it all like Dr. Laura does so plainly, but someone who can also let-it-fly when the need arises, to protect so many women not only from commonly accepted lies but ultimately from the party most responsible - themselves. Most women I've talked to about this book (who've actually read it all) and it's companion book love them both, and Dr. Laura for writing them.

Dr. Laura is right...

As a married man of nine years and having read Dr. Laura's "Proper Care.." and others, I agree with her 100%. My wife operates a small business out of our home and is a very busy woman. She also is the primary care giver to both of our children. Dr. Laura's book helped me to realize that I took her for granted. Likewise, my wife found that she needed to be more affectionate. This book is a must for both men and women. Thank you, Dr. Laura, for strengthening our relationship.
