Book ID/图书代码: 07980018C00095
English Summary/英文概要: What’s married life like from the man’s point of view?What does a wedding actually mean to a man?
Do men really not know how to do laundry?
Now, with masculinity in crisis (again), it’s more important than ever to understand the secret lives of husbands. Couldn’t our relationships be better if we listened, impartially, to how the world looks from inside a man’s head? Do they feel sad at the thought of never falling in love again? Would they ever admit that their wife’s cooking is worse than their mother’s? Melissa Katsoulis’s mission is not to find the perfect husband, or the worst. It’s about talking to married men and understanding their world. We are inundated with statistical research about gender and domestic politics but it doesn’t tell us how things really feel to real men. Through interviews with ordinary men, experts and imaginary Greek gods, Melissa will uncover everything you need to know about the man in your life. From a tour of husbands through history, to husbands in the nursery, husbands on holiday, husbands in the kitchen and husbands of a certain age, THE SECRET LIFE OF HUSBANDS is a warm and entertaining journey of discovery about the modern-day husband.

婚礼对于男人的实际意义是如何的呢?
男人真的知道如何做家务吗?
现在,随着男性气概再次陷入危机,了解丈夫的秘密生活比以往任何时候都更重要。如果我们公正地倾听一个男人内心世界的样子,难道我们的关系就不会变得更好吗?一想到再也不会坠入爱河,他们会感到悲伤吗?他们会承认妻子的厨艺比老妈的厨艺糟糕吗?梅丽莎•凯特索利斯的任务既不是找到完美丈夫,也不是找到最糟糕的那一个。本书的目的在于和已婚男人交谈,了解他们的世界。我们被关于性别和家庭政治的统计研究淹没了,但它并没有告诉我们生活中男人们的真实感受。通过对普通人、专家和虚构的希腊诸神的采访,梅丽莎将揭示你生活中需要了解的关于这个男人的一切。从历史上的丈夫之旅,到托儿所的丈夫,度假中的丈夫,厨房里的丈夫和上了年纪的丈夫,《丈夫的秘密生活》是一个温暖和有趣的发现现代丈夫的旅程。(XMM)
