If the wife leaves the husband in charge the husband has to pay closer attention to the wife to know what she wants to do. I can see it working -- often, having responsibility improves a man's character -- but as you say it seems more a life lesson than a lifestyle.

Then maybe there wouldn't BE a war in Iraq, a deficit, or global warming issues... I’m all for the “surrendered husbands” club too.

My method, if you'd like to know, is the "Surrender, Husband!!" movement... He keeps me happy and that makes me happy which in turn..keeps us all happy. How about that?

How is she gonna just surrender? I always thought that the wife should be in charge of little things like the house, the kids, bills, what to eat, how to spend weekends, whose mom to go see for the holidays, where to vacation etc. The Husband is in charge of big things like the war in Iraq, what to do about Washington, how to fix the deficit, curing gloabal warming and stuff like that. Seriously, if both people realize that its a team effort, and are always focused on making the other spouse happy and safe adn loved you can't go wrong. Remember it is always about peace never victory. Is this the same girl who had a control freakout over the wedding centerpieces? How is she gonna just surrender?
