Sections → Family → Marriage and RelationshipsInstead of putting it all on the men, saying for example that they are "trained" by "society" to feel, think and behave as they do, perhaps you could have encouraged these self-described happily-married women to look in the mirror and try to figure out why their husbands seem to act insensitively toward them.

Sections → FamilyBlood tests are rather innocuous. The pin prick is just slightly annoying, and the ordeal usually only takes a few moments.
