Women more dominant than men

WebMD : Wives Wield Decision Power in Marriage

Balance of Problem-Solving Power Weighs in Favor of Women

Men may rule the world but women rule the roost, according a new study that shows women wield considerably more decision-making power than men within marriages.

Researchers found that wives, on average, displayed more power than their husbands during problem-solving discussions, regardless of who brought up the topic of discussion.

And it’s not simply a case of women talking more than men.

“It wasn’t just that the women were bringing up issues that weren’t being responded to, but that the men were actually going along with what they said,” researcher Megan Murphy, assistant professor of human development and family studies at Iowa State University, says in a news release. “They were communicating more powerful messages, and men were responding to those messages by agreeing or giving in.”

“There’s been research that suggests that’s a marker of a healthy marriage – that men accept influence from their wives,” Murphy says.

German Condom Dispenser

Men's Health suggests that guys get this imported German condom dispenser to make them ready to hop into bed at any time without having condoms sitting out in plain view. The idea is that this will make the guy seem less creepy... but having a condom DISPENSER makes me think the guy would be a little MORE creepy. . .

They also suggest the Durex vibrating ring 6-pack.

The first-ever word between any two people is a lie.

From a Men's Health newsletter today.

The following text is below a picture of a woman in a showy shirt looking toward the camera. Ten yards behind her are three men taking a look at the...um...back of her shirt.

Once in a while, it helps to look at life from the other side.

Which is why we recommend that you watch The Oprah Winfrey Show today.

You heard us right. Dave Zinczenko, the editor-in-chief of Men's Health, appears with Oprah on today's show. The topic: Helping women over 35 find single men.

The Men's Health staff prepared a special "MetroGrades" ranking to show women where they might find a guy.

Why does this matter to you? First, this information is conversational gold when you're out this weekend. And if you live in one of the top cities, be on the lookout for women with newfound enthusiasm for meeting guys.

Doesn't matter what city you're in, women love to talk about relationships. And lots of them will watch Oprah today.

Tell them you watched, too. They'll love that. The rest is up to you.

It's so conniving!

And yet it's so male.

Ladies, the lies don't stop until many many months. Keep that in mind. Eventually, he may tell you about the lies, but he'll describe them in such a way that you'll think he's cute. After all, if you've still got him, then you've probably won, so it's probably OK to call him cute... But just think about all of the awful things he was thinking before you won.
