The Rules for Marriage: Time-Tested Secrets for Making Your Marriage Work by Sherrie Schneider, Ellen Fein

1.0

I don't know whether to laugh or cry when I read this book. The rules for marriage apparently are do whatever your husband says, have sex with him whenever he wants, put his life before your own at all costs, don't share anything negative about your life with him- basically be a step-ford wife, no real emotions, no thoughts or likes or dislikes of your own.

This is the marriage survival guide for women who live on an Island with 700 other women only one man- the penalty being if you don't marry and stay married to him you die. This is the only time when you should take this advice seriously.

I laughed so much when reading this book, but inside I was crying for the death of so many innocent women's independence, for the lapse of feminism and for the horrible marriages that these women must suffer through pretending to be something they aren't.
