PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In her newest book, Schlessinger (10 Stupid Things Women Do to Mess Up Their Lives) relies upon her experience in private practice, radio and letters she received from men and women in tackling the issue of women who mistreat their men and suffer the consequences of unhappiness. The women who criticize their husbands in the stories that Schlessinger relates are depressed in their marriages and feel little love from their husbands. Unabashedly asserting that man is a "very simple creature," who needs only "direct communication, respect, appreciation, food, and good loving'" to respond with devotion, compassion and love, this controversial marriage and family therapist claims that every woman can achieve a deeply satisfying marriage if she adheres to certain fundamentals men require. Preparing dinner, caring for the children without complaint, greeting her husband with a kiss and engaging in sexual intimacy instead of "tearing down a husband's necessary sense of strength and importance" can result in the harmonious marriage women crave. While many of her listeners and readers claim her unequivocal advice has salvaged teetering marriages and improved marital harmony, others perceive Schlessinger as a throwback to what many see as years of female oppression in the home.

Great book for all marriages
I highly recommend this book to all my friends - even the ones with "good" marriages, because it truly helps you understand where your husband is coming from. It gave me insight that helped me improve my relationship with my spouse. While I don't agree with everything she says, and at some points the book is a little redundant (anti-feminist rants! But she definitely has a point) she hits the nail on the head about so many things you can do to improve your marriage. Plus, it's a really fun easy read full of stories and letters from real couples. She teaches you that you can have a happy satisfying marriage - living happily ever after can be a reality if you put some work in to it. This book has the potential to save marriages if you have an open enough mind to accept the information in it. Be open and you will really get a lot out of it. .
Awesome book every man wife and woman should read
Never have I ever read a book that so well explains The behaviors of a man and what he thinks. Laura does an excellent job explaining to women what men feel is important and how they function. I have for years explained many of these feelings concepts to my wife who could not understand what I meant but after she read this book she now believes we are unchangeable in the way we are. And she truly loves me. I am a hard-working motivated loving husband with 10 children I would have no other partner than my wife and I would die for her thank you Laura.
"Finally, a woman says it".
Everywhere you look you see a woman who is either married or wants to be married, But what's more obvious to me is how many of those women who want to get married never do their homework, but instead buy off and what (Hollywood, social media, best friends, sisters, and "especially what their mothers say when it comes to marriage".
You wouldn't say, all my life I wanted to be a doctor when I grow up. When I became an adult I just walked into the first hospital I saw and said "I think this is the one". Instead, you had to do your research you had to learn about what being a doctor is and do your research.
The same goes for marriage so I think books like this are extremely helpful when vetting what marriage entails, v your preconceived impression of it from "dear old mommy".
Perhaps you might not like to hear what's being said in this book but after reading a sample, so far the author is telling what I've personally experienced, and what I hear so many other men share about marriage, "the truth".
We do need to change how we are treating each other as husband and wife, if indeed you want a harmonious marriage. Change means shedding your knee jerk impulse to "have it your way or no ones happy", and as men, to stop playing along with such bad behavior, even if the consequence means "no to sex", her default to punishing you.
