Was the Copenhagen Global Warming Summit Walk-Out a Win for the U.S.?


MRS 210 - Sex after Marriage. A woman has an obligation to keep herself trim and attractive after she gets married. She also has a right not to have a fat slob for a husband. That’s why married couples should work out together. That will do a lot to keep their sex lives interesting but they’ll need more than just physical fitness. That’s what this class will be all about.

MRS 220 - Spousal Communication. Some women who are married think it’s alright to talk to their mothers each and every single day on the telephone. That’s okay, unless, of course, she’s talking to her mommy about a marital problem her husband does not even know about. It’s not rational or adult to expect the man to figure out the problems you conceal. It’s far healthier to learn to communicate with your spouse directly even if it means there will be an occasional argument. And, for the sake of fairness and balance, there will be plenty of time in this class to talk about the consequences of marrying a momma’s boy.

Cait Jacob and Becky Banks join my wife and mother-in-law as some of the prettiest red-heads you’ll ever see. I thank them for giving me the inspiration to write this column. Because we need more women just like them, we need M.R.S. degree programs now. Our young men need good wives more than anyone needs another degree program teaching women how to become lesbians, feminists, and man-haters for life.

Dr. Mike S. Adams would like to apologize for the redundancy in the final sentence of this column.

Better late than never
It seems to me that the intention behind Dr. Adams' column is getting by a few of you. All of you who cry out about the case of his friend and his marital problems, you should see that this was only a part of the column to give context to the main issue; women needing to learn how to become wives and mothers. Also, it seems that many of you are missing the point of his animosity toward "finding oneself." The main idea behind this is that when a person has entered into a marriage, especially one with children involved, there is an obligation to the family before the self. This is true for both men and women, and men are guilty of this as well, but they are not currently the subject of debate.

To illustrate this last point, I would pose a question. How many men do you know who hate their jobs but are willing to stick it out because they have families that need support? How many men would love to leave their current employment and try to "find themselves," or at least find something that might make them happier? How many of their wives would complain if they were to do so? How many women would call them immature for quitting their jobs, to become, say, a painter? If being a wife and mother is going to be compared to a paying job, should it not be seen with the same obligation to continue?

The truth
What are you people talking about? Suddenly it's women who are breaking the traditional family mold? Men impregnate whoever they so choose and say they are "fathers" because they send a check to junior every month. Where's the accountability there?

After a divorce, it is the vast majority of mothers who keep the children (24/7 until 18). Shouldn't men help out with the children they spawn by at least sending a monthly check - this is not the least bit unfair. It is women who hold families together. Women put up with philandering husbands for the sake of their children and men leave the second anything gets tough. women are the civiling force in a household. Without them there would be NO ONE to raise the children when men need to go sow a few more of their wild oats and abandon their families. Thank God for mothers! Where do I find a guy who stands up for their family and won't leave them for the next hot piece of booty? Yes, children need men as positive role models, but I haven't been privy to many of those. Men need to step up!!!

It is MEN who need a MR degree that teaches them how to be FAITHFUL and provide for their family - it's until "death do you part", not until one of you gets fat. If you're not serious about the vows than don't take them. Tell me, which is the more egregious offense - infidelity or packing on a few pounds?

And, BTW, who ever said Mike's friend's wife was a feminist? Maybe she was just an idiot.
