[Phantom Lord]

A study has found that women who use the 'silent treatment' with their spouses during arguments could be on their way to early deaths.

If only I could get my wife to shut up!

There are so many jokes in poor taste about what causes a woman to go silent...

HOWEVER, on a serious note, it does point out that couples who communicate, REALLY communicate TOGETHER WITH EACH OTHER probably have lower stress and less stress means a longer happier life.
