    Why is it that we women pick up on the slightest slur and never hear the good stuff? Criticisms are stored forever; compliments evaporate instantly?

    I don’t know! But for husbands to avoid these problems, they should definitely read the related chapter in Garden of Peace by Rav Shalom Arush. It has a lot to say about criticism in marriage, which is really important for men to hear. There’s a woman’s version too, but I haven’t read it.

    I don’t agree that has anything to do with being female.

    “Why is it that we women pick up on the slightest slur and never hear the good stuff?”

    My father always says that the real reason women can’t learn Gemara is because we’ll hear an entirely hypothetical situation and we’ll find a way to take offense.

    That’s really funny!
