I don't think any of his comments on the sexes are accurate for real people RugbyPlayingAshaman Send a noteboard - 07/07/2011 02:53:29 PM
Honestly, it just seems as if they apply to a certain type of person and doesn't apply to any of my friends. Even worse is the idea that you can generalize how either half of the population behaves based upon their sex.

It seems to me that R.J. came from a somewhat conservative background, and perhaps the fact that I was raised in a cosmopolitan city (New York) whereas he was raised in the south, a lot of his commentary on the battle of the sexes seem quaint and outdated.

You have to make sure your husbands do what you want, while making them think it was their idea. CatherineSedai - 21/07/2011 04:28:39 AM 1142 Views
And I can buy that, which is why I'm surprised at how many claimed they were inaccurate. Seriously, newyorkersedai - 26/07/2011 01:44:28 AM 1139 Views
