[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]More than anything, I was surprised by how open and candid people were about their marriages. They used their real names, and they aired their dirty laundry in a NY Times Magazine article by a well-known writer. They must have known that their peers, colleagues, neighbors and eventually children would read it. I found it amazing they would share their marital ugliness so openly. Maybe others disagree, but to me, most of the marriages just seemed awful. I certainly understand how the challenging the situation can be -- navigating changing roles, differing expectations, disappointments and even envy. But even so, I was struck by how flat out selfish and petulant some of the husbands seemed. Many seemed to have a me-against-you mentality (competitive) rather than us-as-a-team mentality (cooperative). Painful. [/quote]. Plus one! Omg those must be some seriously embarrassed dudes right now!!! [/quote]
