How To Rope Men Into Doing Stuff For You
The main tenets of Man Whispering involve knowing what the real issue at hand is; learning how to phrase your requests in a way that is non-threatening to your man, learning to “zip it” so that your man has a chance to “fix” the problem, and then learning how to reward your man for completing the task in a way that makes him want to do it over and over again in order to please you. You are learning to bring the “good guy gene” out in your man to ensure that your relationship runs smoother, sexier and that everyone is happy.
This retro, and not in a good way, excerpt is from the 2010 book, The Man Whisperer. If you’d like more advice that sounds like it’s from the 50’s, read the authors’ live chat on the Washington Post.
