Can Marshmallow Men Surpass Dominating Women?

The genesis for this article comes from two strange places.  Yesterday, I was watching the Dr. Phil show.  He was interviewing men who had lost their jobs and now had to tend to their homes and children and their wives who were upset at their husbands substandard efforts.  Just before I started writing this article, I was watching an episode of Rosanne where Rosanne is teaching young girls about running a home while the man sleeps.

I at first noticed a certain degree of animosity in the women.  It was almost as if these women have resented the last ten or twenty years of house work and now wanted to punish their husbands for their resentment by complaining to the point of being abusive.  I also observed marshmallow men.  These men do not contribute or participate in relationships.  

Resentment if allowed to fester it can be toxic to a marriage.  People get angry.  Then they become abusive.

Let me tell you what I have learned about romance in the modern world.  People are not assisted in achieving emotional and intellectual maturity.  Because of this fact, many people cannot function in a relationship because of their psychological deficiencies. 

The resentment some of these women may have had is not due to their husbands.  It is a result of feeling as if life is passing by and there is something they are missing.  

The something that is missing is our true life.  We all have wants needs, and desires.  When we become part of a couple, we tend to compromise our wants, needs, and desires in order not to upset our partner.

Here is some thing else I know about relationships.  In most relationships, there is a dominant personality and a passive personality.  When we experience a bad developmental period, we adopt behaviors in order to cope.  Neither an aggressive personality nor a passive personality is conducive in a romantic relationship.

Okay, let me get back to my central point. In our modern world, there is less and less proper rearing of children.  Therefore, there are more people with issues and hang-ups.  In this new gender relationship, dynamic women are becoming more dominant and men are adopting the passive personality.  In my opinion, through generational evolution men are becoming something other then what we were meant to be in life.
