I recently received an email filled with one-liners of men putting down their wives and the idea of marriage.
a few listed below:
****
I recently read that love is entirely a matter of chemistry. That must be why my wife treats me like toxic waste.
When a man steals your wife, there is no better revenge than to let him
keep her.
Woman inspires us to great things, and prevents us from achieving them.
First Guy (proudly): 'My wife's an angel!'
Second Guy: 'You're lucky, mine's still alive.'
****
Why do these even exsist?
Has anyone ever thought that perhaps this is contributing to the failure rate of marriages in the world today? This email does nothing but put a an excellent example of a poor marriage in the lime light and focus on something a marriage shouldn't even be based on.
Why not send around an email about the postives, about the good things. (support, understanding and compromise, respect and most importantly love)
Marriages need support, by family, and good friends. That is why you have a WEDDING PARTY - you choose those close friends and family to be the people who will stand up and say "you are being and idiot go and apologize". It is a support system. (even if you are having trouble)
There is no support in emails like these that are (unfortunately) sent around all to often as well in the tv shows we see. (ie: Married with Children) These showcase idoits who are miserable and too stupid to recognize what they have and instead insult their husbands or their wives rather than supporting them.
Good friends would not insult any person supporting their husband or wife.
Therefore, emails like these are sent to and created by men like AL BUNDY who are seeking to justify their idiodic behaviour amoung other idiotic men.
That's my UPINION.

I would prefer people didn't fill my mailbox with forwarded e-mail comedy. Take the time to compose a personal message if you want to stay in touch.

Oh don't be so sensitive - have a sense of humour and forward some emails on that bash stereotypical male traits! ;)

Even though I agree...we have to leave some room for humor. Although there is a hilarious Al Bundy clip where he gets kidnapped by fat chicks.
