A bold and brazen approach to a very touchy subject. Made me chuckle. "Joe, Monday, Pool, Beer." lol

Too many men have given up on the leadership role in the home because they fear her unhinged reaction. Men need to stop tip toeing around women for fear of what we can only describe as mental abuse. You'll find that when you put your foot down, you'll command the respect you've been looking for the whole time. Without asserting your values, you'll fall into a perpetual cycle of unhappiness and weakness.

Great summation. And putting your foot down needs to be done in a way that avoids over-aggressiveness but is firm and clear.

And on Paul's point, India has a divorce rate of under 2% while also being home to one of the biggest cultures of arranged marriage.

India has a very strong gynocentrism that is hurting men. Thanks to Anil Kumar for his great work there. https://www.saveindianfamily.org/

I think you both have a good thought or two, but for the most part you are wrong. It is not about “training a woman” to be in a successful, happy relationship. It is about being a good person, understanding that you are not the only person with thoughts, feelings, wants and desires. There are many kinds of relationships. We have relationships with all people that come into our lives and if we want to keep these relationships healthy we have to have core values and remember and act upon one premise: “do onto others as you would have done to you”. If you want your “woman” to act toward you in a certain way you must act toward her in the same fashion. There is one rule book, not two. You may think you are training her but you may just be stifling the person she is.

It’s as simple as that. And all of this starts when a person is born. Humans need to be taught how to treat others and shown through example. It is parents failing to do this that has caused society to become what it is today.

The training your woman was meant to be provocative. If you watch the entire video I think you will see that we are interested in helping men develop a partnership.
