Laura Schlessinger is back with Ten Stupid Things Men Do to Mess Up Thei r Lives. In ten vital, compelling chapters, Dr. Laura speaks her mind on: Stupid Chivalry By getting involved with the wrong woman (weak, flaky, damaged, needy, desp erate, stupid, untrustworthy, immature, etc.) you think that your love will save/transform her. Stupid Independence Unwilling to admit "need" for bonding and intimacy, you hide in excesses of work, play, drink, drugs, porn, and meaningless sex. Stupid Ambition Unable to comfortably and proudly accept your inherent importance to societ y and family as husband and father, you bow to the false idols of money, to ys, power, and status. Stupid Strength Uncomfortable with feeling weak, vulnerable, useless, powerless, or rejecte d, you use intimidation, force, or passive-aggressiveness to regain control . Stupid Sex Taking an attraction, opportunity, or erection as a "sign," you measure you r masculinity and power by sexual conquests, infidelities, and orgasms. Stupid Matrimony Lacking a mature sense of the purpose, meaning, or value of marriage, you realize too late you've gone down the aisle with the wrong woman for the wrong reasons.
