Ceased Being a Feminist
03/05/2013
Dr. Laura

I've been an avid listener of yours for 10 yrs. I am a big fan of your book The Proper Care and Feeding of Husbands. I have taken your words to heart and practice your insightful advice on how to take care of my man.

I have a story I would like to share with you about a discussion my husband and I were just having. Well, his 15 year high school reunion is coming up and we now live in a different state. We can't afford to buy two plane tickets to attend, so I told him that I would gladly stay at home if he would like to attend. His response to me made my heart melt and has been a defining moment in our marriage. He said, "No way, you are the best thing that has ever happened to me and there's no way I'm going back there without you."

Ten years ago you changed my life forever. I am a recovered feminist. Today my husband and I are happily celebrating our 7 year anniversary and I could not have done it without you. Thank you for standing up against feminism. I didn't lose anything when I ceased being a feminist. I've actually gained a lot more than I've ever had. I've gained a relationship with my husband and children that will last a lifetime. I still have a lot of woman power if you know what I mean!

I am a stay-at-home mom with two beautiful children who I homeschool and I have a husband who slays dragons for us!

Thank You

Alesia
