BATTLE OF THE SEXES
Dear Battle of the Sexes:
I know you ' ve probably heard this complaint over and over again, but after 15 years of marriage to the same guy in the same house- you need to hear mine. My husband just asked me the other day where I " hid " the can opener. It has been in the same drawer for over a decade and he was annoyed at me because he couldn ' t find it. Unbelievable! When I pointed this out to him, he was even more irritated and got very defensive. Are men just that oblivious or is it just convenient not to know where anything is?? I ' m seriously wondering!

Dear Battle of the Sexes:
Why do women need so many shoes? It completely baffles me. My wife has- no exaggeration- more shoes than she can wear in two months. Some I haven ' t seen on her feet since we started dating in college and we are now 35! Some still have tags on them. I know she isn ' t an exception- her friends seem to have the same compulsion for footwear. What ' s more, every time we go shopping, she looks for more shoes! Are there any support groups I can sign her up for to help her overcome this obsession?
