Lonely Hearts Club

Dear Bridgitte,

My Husband is always telling me what to do, which is fine except that he always talks about how he loves strong macho women. I am confused. I try to act strong, but it's just for his sake. I feel like a phony my little pony. I just want him to be happy, I don't know what is going on. Can you help me understand this whole man/woman strong/weak thing? It's got me in a twist.

Macha in la Mancha

Dear Macha,

Sometimes men get tired of having to live up to the stereotypes women have of them.

Perhaps your Mucho Macho Muchacho just wants you to wear the boots for a while. Swing the loaner cajones while he rests on his ovaries.
