    My husband sent this to me it had circulated the company a few times - some of the previous email titles for it were:

    "The way it should be"
    "How to make your marriage work"
    "I would have a lot more time to shoot pool if I gave this to my wife"
    "This is a classic, give it to someone you love"

    What would you title it???????

    Quick, someone get the smelling salts over to Tina's!

    My wife said that because this was written before she was born, it doesn't apply to her.

    I won't be pushing the pointers in this article too much. I can't sleep that well with one eye open.

    Couldn't find the bit about how a good wife should wear a mini-skirt and high heels.

    Englishman.

    ..... fanaticism masquerading beneath a cloak of reasoned logic.

    Title: To Induce Vomiting..

    Ugh. I think a warning label should have been put into your post Closer, I'm just thankful I saw this before lunch.

    LOL @ expatbrit, I vote for your title.

    ROTFLMAO oh this is just too damn funny. my question, did women REALLY REALLY believe all this shit?

    here are a few of my favorites:

    "Be a little gay and a little more interesting for him. His boring day may need a lift and one of your duties is to provide it."

    "Greet him with a warm smile and show sincerity in your desire to please him."

    "Let him talk first-remember, his topics of conversation are more important than yours."

    "Don't complain if he's late home for dinner or even if he stays out all night. Count this as minor compared to what he might have gone through that day."

    "Don't ask him questions about his actions or question his judgment or integrity. Remember, he is the Master of the house and as such will always excercise his will with fairness and truthfulness. You have no right to question him."

    "A good wife always knows her place."

    i'd call it "Master and Servant"

    love
    harmony

    ps. hehe now i've got depeche mode running thru my head...i'll share it with you all....

    Master and Servant

    There's a new game
    We like to play you see
    A game with added reality
    You treat me like a dog
    Get me down on my knees

    We call it master and servant
    We call it master and servant

    It's a lot like life
    This play between the sheets
    With you on top and me underneath
    Forget all about equality

    Let's play master and servant
    Let's play master and servant

    It's a lot like life
    And that's what's appealing
    If you despise that throwaway feeling
    From disposable fun
    Then this is the one

    Domination's the name of the game
    In bed or in life
    They're both just the same
    Except in one you're fulfilled
    At the end of the day

    Let's play master and servant
    Let's play master and servant

    Let's play master and servant
    Come on, master and servant

    Tina:

    Please consider my apology for my angry responses during last weeks debate. I felt as if I were being attacked for simply bringing up a subject. On reviewing the matter, I probably could have done a better job with the wording on the initial thread.

    Do you think I need to talk to the elders? LOL
