Here is a finding for all wives to hate.
In men, keeping quiet during a fight didn’t have any measurable effect on health. But women who didn’t speak their minds in those fights were four times as likely to die during the 10-year study period as women who always told their husbands how they felt, according to the July report in Psychosomatic Medicine.
How much the spouses fought and what they fought about did not correlate with increased cardiovascular risk. It was HOW they fought, their bickering style, that correlated with increased cardiovascular risk. Mary Poppins knew: a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.

I guess this is why men seldom outlive their wives.
