"Pride and Prejudice"
Why does a woman work ten years to change a man’s habit and then complain that he's not the man she married?
-Barbra Streisand

-Elizabeth Cadell
Marriage should be between a spouse and a spouse, not a gender and a gender.

In the true married relationship, the independence of husband and wife will be equal, their dependence mutual, and their obligations reciprocal.
