Well, who wouldn't want a wife, I mean a Yiddeshe mother

Interesting that following my posting on quotes on successful marriages, I find the following. Josh allowed his blog to be used as a forum for one husband's defense of megirot. excerpt here:
My Chardei wife has been involved in megeriot for 4 years. It has absolutely changed her life and mine. She couldn't take care of our household of 8. I was washing dishes. I was doing alot of the cooking and I almost couldn't take anymore the non stop arguments between me and my wife. It was gehinnom. when I saw my wife changing, little by little, each month it was amazing. She became a Yiddeshe mother. No more anger. Her strength came back, and she does EVERYTHING in the house.

Thanks to Mother in Israel for directing readers to this.

and to fully appreciate my title, see an essay included in many anthologies I used when teaching college composition and rhetoric:
