I have another take on this. Told to me by a wise older woman, in fact.
Dissing your man to other women lessens the likelihood one of them will try to poach him.
“Dissing your man to other women lessens the likelihood one of them will try to poach him.”
Any woman who bad mouths her husband behind his back to another woman will most certainly bad mouth everyone else she knows behind theirs too.
Apparently, backbiting is no longer a cardinal sin.
“Dissing your man to other women lessens the likelihood one of them will try to poach him.”
Actually, learning to cook a good spaghetti, not nagging, never... and I mean never, being disrespectful in front of other people, and occasionally meeting him at the door naked is a better method. (and occasionally doesn’t mean once every year or so)
I just don’t say anything about my husband. I think the world of him, but he is no one else’s business.
But treating him like dirt is a good way to encourage him to trade up to a less whiny model.
A woman who tears down her husband is fouling her own nest.
Frankly, it’s not so bad...until they work in the office with you.
...or, I suppose, begin to believe it.
As a young girl, I saw this very thing happen to our next door neighbor. Nice lady, two kids, husband that was so talented and likable, wonderful father, etc.
The wife was friends with the single mother up the street.
One day, the husband announces he wants a divorce. Left them and married the woman up the street.
His children NEVER forgave him, and NEVER spoke to him again for the rest of his life.
It was sad, though, because in his later years, he became a beautiful Christian, but brought to his grave the heartache of what he had done to his wife and children.

As long as they don’t find out that the Woman’s pet name for her Husband is The Human Tripod. Could be problematic.
