Filed under husbands and wives, moronocy, sexism.

WPost columnist Ruth Marcus angsts over the terrible message sent by Michelle Obama’s announcement that she’ll be mom in chief, stay home with the kids, let the husband be president of the United States. It’s a whine about women having to put career second, all the usual.  Motherhood, the great nuisance.

My Wife’s Book

Filed under husbands and wives, literary, shameless self-promotion.

“Tethered,” a novel by Amy MacKinnon, literary suspense, Random House. Think CSI on a soul-searching journey in which the protagonist is doing everything she can to look the other way. Searing gut-punch prose, a page-turner. OK, I’m her husband,* but I’m also a compulsive editor. She had other people performing that service for her, and after that early unpleasant [...]

Divorce Penalty

You’re paying it. Other people’s divorces and failure to marry costs you money. Or maybe, your divorce or failure to marry is costing us money. $112 billion a year, according to a study by a coalition of marriage advocacy groups. Washington Times:

Men, Women …

Filed under husbands and wives, men, women.

Relationships, blah blah blah. TOSOK makes a few points, generally sounds about right (though the calculus obviously doesn’t apply to crazy stalker men and other defectives who clearly don’t do the math). But what posessed him to squawk about the analyzing?  I thought they were supposed to be on a need-to-know basis about that. Jeez, I [...]
