My wife used to watch mtv. So i cancelled the cable. Haven't had tv in five years. You have to manage your woman, dude. Not like a redneck dickhead but as the leader of the family sometimes you need to make decisions that benefit everyone's ultimate welfare. If she bitches, so what. She'll get over it. And if she doesnt then syonara sucker. Have a nice life. Some things require a fatalistic attitude.

Some modern day brainwashed chicks may not agree with my methods and same with wimpy ass femenized dudes. But if i let my wife run the show we'd be destitute in debt. My boys would be gay. And my daughter would be a slut. Thats just the hard facts. A woman's perception base is not the same as a man's. And perhaps, just perhaps, a man's understanding of the big picture is more accurate. I don't see guys reading cosmo as a source of enlightenment.

As a result of assuming head of household, my family is completely debt free, minus cell phone bills. Our cars and house are paid for outright. Our kids are outstanding individuals that exercise good judgement and take zero amount of shit from anyone including their teachers. They will be leaders in their community as adults.

So maybe her downward spiral into manchurian tv brainwashing is simply a reflection of your choice to not take your position as leader of the family. Enforce a moral code. Set clear and consistant standards for everyone, including your wife. Life and family life is not a bobbleheaded happy go lucky drift through time. It requires work, attention to detail, and duty. All of these things are a manifestation of love. Follow this path, with tenderness, and your wife will feel secure and protected. She will respond in ways you cant imagine. Im married 7 years now and my wife jumps on me every night. She has nothing to fear or stress. She is healthy for no television. Instead we read books and take walks. I listen to her chatter endlessly about everything on her mind. Tv kills families and marriages. So does facebook. Good luck.
