Victoria: #5: Decision making... how should we handle it? Joe: Uh-oh. OK... I have to admit that I'm quite a traditionalist in this area of marriage. Victoria: Oh... really?

Baloney. Palos, the correct phrase in this situation is: “When you hear hoofbeats in the park, don’t think zebras.” In other words, the most obvious thing is usually the correct one. And, that is: Joe is a wimp.

Or, he’s just scared to death of what would happen if he stood up to her. He’s just the feminazis’ favorite man.
