[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a husband and I'm not a fan of the saying, but not all things are equal between men and women.  For instance, a recent study found that lack of sleep affected marital happiness -- but only if the lack of sleep was the wife's.  The husband's lack of sleep  did not have a large impact on marriage overall.

So there may be some truth that making a wife happy is more important for the relationship than making a husband happy.  [/quote]

Men, think hard about why this is true.[/quote]The researchers speculate that men are biologically better able to tolerate lack of sleep. I think that if men are tired or unhappy they are less likely to make an issue of it. They keep it to themselves. [/quote]

OMG, really? They keep it to themselves my ass. When has that EVER happened?

My husband does. He NEVER complains, I'm the whiner in the relationship.  His ability to suffer and continue to plug on is amazing, I could probably count on one hand the number of time I have heard him complain and it has never once been over a lack of sleep, despite having children who were horrid sleepers and both of us working FT, therefore fully sharing in all household duties and night wakings.

he's the kind if guy who can have pneumonia and still go to work each and every day.[/quote]
