A friend is getting married soon and his uncle said that he is , "Another casualty in the battle of the sexes, wasted." Is that true?

Not at all true. Marriage Stereotypes. We, women, most of the time give you guys all the clues on which button to press. You just don't pay attention. Men, on the other hand, can be so uptight at times and don't want to be seen that they too are humans. It's forgiveable to express emotions rather than acting as a loudmouthed neanderthal. The former endears you to us.
Marriage shouldn't be a battleground. It should be where you put in the best of both worlds and make each other whole. It's a matter of choice if you want to be the one under or above the other. Each one should be ready to switch places in order for a relationship to be fulfilling. The battle is within ourselves and not the other party. If you're not ready to sweat it out then I say better stay single. Less worries.

I think your friends uncle was trying to be witty, with the emphasis on witty, mind you he may have had a bad experience he's still bitter about who knows? personally i dont see why there should be a battle of the sexes, both men and women have various strengths and weaknesses, and if you find the right partner, those can make a pretty powerful alliance, in what rightly should be called, the batthe to make it in life without too much hardship these days, still i suppose we're all entitled to an opinion, thats mine. p.s. tell your friend congratulations.

Sometimes i feel that way. Beat down, taken for granted, a big nag and not the fun outgoing chick i used to be. I tell all of my single friends to wait as long as they can to get married and have kids and enjoy their youth. But the truth is that i love being a wife and mother. I have a great husband and son, a cute little house and a cute little life. If you are willing to take on the journey then it is well worth it. I don't miss the drama and beating of the single college life, i always have someone to make love to and hold me, and someone to have my back when things get hard. As long as husband and wife both wear long skirts (rather than the pants) in the family then it is a pleasurable experience.

If you have found the right person in your life then throughout life and marriage you take the battles on together. Being in love and commiting to that person means that you always have someone there to support you in everything you do, and always be on your side no matter what.
Anyone who says otherwise has just not found the right person or is bitter from bad experience.

Of course it's true..
It can either be 'Two worlds colliding'
Or, 'Two halves of a whole, coming together as one'
But why bother?
Everybody knows that women will always be superior!.
