You either love Dr. Laura or you don’t. Dr. Laura has some strong views on marriage and she doesn’t mince words on her radio program or in her books. I happen to fall into the “love Dr. Laura” camp and I wholeheartedly agree with what she teaches. Dr. Laura’s views on marriage and motherhood tend to be a lot more traditional than what is endorsed in mainstream culture today.

If, on the other hand, you’re a die hard feminist who believes that “women need fish like men need bicycles”, then you’ll hate Dr. Laura and disagree with what she has to say.

I feel that in today’s world where marriage and motherhood are devalued, Dr. Laura brings a message that needs to be heard.

In The Proper Care and Feeding of Marriage, she challenges the attitude that so many women have toward their husbands - one of disdain, disrespect and a lack of concern for the husband’s needs.

In The Proper Care and Feeding of Marriage Dr. Laura explains that men are really simple creatures with simple needs. Men need love, respect, food and sex. And the woman who meets these needs happily and willingly will find that her husband will do almost anything to make her happy. From my own experience I have found this to be very true.

The Proper Care and Feeding of Marriage is a compilation of transcripts from Dr. Laura’s show which she uses to highlight and explain these key points about men.

She says and I quote “.....women have all the power in the world to determine the behavior of their men. This power is released when women practice the proper care and feeding of their husbands.” She encourages women to make their husbands and marriages a priority and that is never a bad thing.

To all those skeptics out there, I say give Dr. Laura’s advice a try. You have nothing to loose and a lifetime of marital bliss to gain.
