It's the male-female hour.
|
|
Hi everybody, I'm Dennis Prager.
|
|
Most honest talk I know of in the American media about men and women.
|
|
So I have an interesting topic.
|
|
If it weren't interesting, it wouldn't be a topic.
|
|
Therefore, to a certain extent, interesting topic is redundant.
|
|
I have a topic that will make you think.
|
|
Very often when Couples married for, let's say, two decades or more, are asked, so what's the secret to your long marriage?
|
|
By the way, it's sort of an incorrect question.
|
|
People should be asked, if they're going to be asked anything, they should be asked about the secrets to their long and good marriage.
|
|
Long and happy marriage.
|
|
A long marriage, the secret to a long marriage is not getting divorced.
|
|
So that doesn't answer anything.
|
|
The question is, if you have an essentially happy marriage, what is your secret?
|
|
So one of the most common, I would say the most common answer that I have heard from men...
|
|
I don't recall what answer women give.
|
|
It's an interesting one.
|
|
Interesting question unto itself.
|
|
But the most common answer that you hear from men is, well, I learned to say yes, dear.
|
|
So, allow me in my usual heretical way to argue that yes dear is not the route to a happy marriage.
|
|
It might be the route to a long marriage, but it is not the route necessarily to a happy marriage.
|
|
So here's what I want to bounce off you.
|
|
I don't think that most women want a husband who always says, yes, dear.
|
|
1-8 Prager 776 877-243-7776.
|
|
So do you agree or not with that thesis of mine?
|
|
That it sounds cute, it sounds nice, it sounds like women go, yeah, that's the man I want.
|
|
Man who always says, yes, dear.
|
|
But I don't believe that.
|
|
I don't believe that that's what most women want in a man.
|
|
I think they want one who will say yes dear when appropriate and no dear when it's appropriate.
|
|
What do you think?
|
|
877-243-7776 1-8 Prager 776. Maybe I'm wrong, by the way.
|
|
I would be very obviously interested to hear from women in this matter, but if you're a man, we will not reject your phone call on that basis alone.
|
|
We do not discriminate on the basis of sex.
