I have just come across the TV programme which teaches women how to train their husbands like a dog. Can you imagine the fuss if it was "Train your wife like a dog"? I think it's partly the fact that it's done hidden-camera, without the husband's knowledge, that pisses me off.

Grrrrnghghggh.

I've found in both myself and
others that they really do respond a lot better to re-education by
example than to trying to talk someone into understanding themselves.


This is probably a complete and utter tangent, but proponents of CBT (in the Cognitive Behaviour Therapy expansion) would probably disagree with this.

Reading through Chris' response below, I think he voices my main issue with the programme - that this behaviour modification is being attempted both *without the subject's knowledge*, and in a manner that I'm uncomfortable with, but I'm not sure why this is so. I think I need to watch some more episodes, paying attention to the suggested solutions to each problem.
