Greater impact on men? Is anyone surprised? They needed a study for this?

Apologies to all wonderful women Freepers. But in my experience and hearing experiences of other men friends of mine, it seems that women tend to want things to be a certain way, expect their men to be a certain way, and when their men fail to live up to expectation, fail to adhere to the criteria set by the women, that’s when conflict happens. And the man tends to be on the losing side.

Flame away. I am sure others have had different experiences. I’m just reporting some personal experience and some discussions I’ve had with other men and their experiences.

Yup.

Please. Men are just as critical but in different areas. God forbid you gain weight after you have a baby and don't take it off. You never hear the end of it. Then there is that aura of superiority when talking down to the wife. How money is spent is another hot topic.

If men suffer health wise, it might have something to do with their tendency to drive aggressively each and every day. It brings the blood pressure up.

Each sex has its own peccadilloes. Nobody is perfect or an angel.

I’m not going to flame you, Dilbert. I cringe for some of my friends’ husbands. Some women I know make demands without giving anything in return. It’s not fair. Too controlling.

But just know that it isn’t ALWAYS the woman that is more to blame. Sometimes men pull away from all interaction etc, or otherwise irreconcilably break the vows, without a bad wife. It can go both ways.

Or in so many words: women with lists.
