About this listen

In her most provocative book yet, Dr. Laura urgently reminds women that to take proper care of their husbands is to ensure themselves the happiness and satisfaction they yearn for in marriage.

Women want to be in love, get married, and live happily ever after. Yet disrespect for men and disregard for the value, feelings, and needs of husbands has fast become the standard for male-female relations in America. Those two attitudes clash in unfortunate ways to create struggle and strife in what could be a beautiful relationship.

Countless women call Dr. Laura, unhappy in their marriages and seemingly at a loss to understand the power they have over their men to create the kind of home life they yearn for. Now, in The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands, Dr. Laura shows you how to wield that power to attain all the sexual pleasure, intimacy, love, joy, and peace you want in your life. With real-life examples, and real-life solutions, Dr. Laura's simple principles have changed the lives of millions. Now they can change yours.

Critic Reviews

"Like many of the author's best-selling books and audios, this is a groundbreaking and refreshing lesson. Schlessinger's own friendly and youthful narration makes the presentation a joy to hear in spite of the jarring nature of her message." (AudioFile)

Wonderful reality check

I was reluctant to read this book after my mother told me it was all I needed to do to fix my broken marriage. I am now accepting of what I could and couldn't do at the time it was needed.

explains well and it's engaging

I was recommended this book as I was having troubles to say the least. I have been to couples therapy and it didn't really help. after listening to this book I understand more now than the counselling. I basically listened to it in one fell swoop. it was very engaging. sucks it was so short.
