Marriage is a wonderful thing. Two people living in harmony over a lifetime with their soul mate, sharing the joys and pleasures of the world and growing ever closer. Each partner thrilling in the satisfaction of knowing that someone fully understands and supports them with unconditional love.
Yeah, right.
Another way of looking at it is that marriage is that part of the eternal struggle between men and women to outdo and outwit each other where the two combatants are committed to staying together. The to and fro of banter, bile and wit can be both glorious and ferocious in its intensity. It can also be incredibly funny.
"Battle of the Sexes - The Joy of Marriage" is a collection of the very best emails and messages involving marriage that have been received by the author from all around the world since the turn of this century. Many of them are unusual. Some of them may even be true. One thing is for sure - they are funny that they caused the author to laugh out loud when he received them and that is A Good Thing because laughter is the very best medicine you can get.
Mind you, a bit of a warning is necessary: If you are easily offended by content that is mildly adult, politically incorrect or extracts fun at situations involving stereotypical behaviour, please don't buy it. You will not enjoy it. This is a book aimed at generating laughter with ourselves, not creating social correctness.
Entries were selected only if they met three criteria:
- They made the recipient actually laugh out loud when received
- They are not crude. (Adult is OK, mind you)
- They are not derogatory towards any individual
The collection is short and sweet so it can be dipped into and enjoyed at your convenience during a break, a journey, a commute or over a drink. All for less that the price of a coffee.
