If whatever assistant you have reading these hatefilled, unprintable comments for your later perusal and possible condescending, dismissive reading on your show gets this far down, I hope he or she prints out this one for you.

You derailed Megan and Jeff into a discussion of what you literally said, what words you used, and what definitions you assign to those words.

What they should have asked you about was why you feel the sentiments underlying those words are appropriate. You said that it's a woman's choice to say no if her husband asks for sex - but in the same breath, said "but saying no all the time will damage the marriage"

If you really believe your column is a source for married couples to open a dialogue, you would do married people everywhere a much greater service by saying "Couples should discuss their sex lives" rather than making comments like "men are animals" and "women shouldn't say no just because they don't feel like having sex."

Believe men and women are different all you want, have Judeo-Christian values all you want, but please be aware that you offend and hurt women everywhere when you make statements like yours.

I've been married 23 years. To the same man. Unlike you. Also, unlike you, he does NOT demand sex regardless of my feelings in the matter. He values me, you see, because I'm his wife and he loves me. Sometimes he conceeds because I'm not in the mood (having 3 kids will do that sometimes, esp. to the mom, but you wouldn't know anything about that would you?). Sometimes he (GASP) actually spends some time wooing me! Isn't that AMAZING! And then we have the sex! And it's AMAZING!

Loving and valuing your wife. You might want to try that sometime.

Oh. She's already been lobotomized. I see.

With pink sparkles, of course!

As it is, I feel like I've just run up a flight of stairs, and my chest is all flushed, and that's just from following the progression of comments.

I love you guys.
