The one thing that made me go after Gwynelle to be my wife, 47 years ago, is her commitment to my betterment. If one of us made the larger salary, it was always our money. I see my role to love Gwynelle and not be competitive with her. We both achieved our degrees after marriage, so we invested in each other's development for the family good. Thus, love is a low stress home that I want to come back to each day.

Ok, I am going to cry after reading such a sweet story. of the two Drs. Millers.

No love is there. We had our own way of falling in love and mating for life long before coming to this country. The government is only involved because of the duel ownership of assets, especially property. The government sees it as a legal business partnership. We know the damage of the past tactics of breaking up families, especially separating the parents has done going back 400 years to current day social programs that require that only one parent be present. Often physically both parents are present, it just not noted on a paper certificate.

She also would like to see a national conference “where black men and black women come together and cast off all societal taboos and insidious class divisions,” largely driven by media, which produce false images and expectations of what relationships and married life should be.

I agree with this may not a conference but to be discussed. Leave the women's lib and its B-ism alone. Who is Hare?
