Footnotes to Plato from the foothills of the Superstition Mountains

The Marriage Killer

My angelic wife doesn't nag, so I don't have this problem.  But you might.  She doesn't nag, but she becomes inordinately happy when I do any work around the house.  Curiously irrational but delightful nonetheless.  Women are unduly attuned to the values of domestic order and cleanliness.  Not that these aren't values; but in a sound axiological hierarchy they must be assigned a position well below the values of, say, playing chess and writing philosophy, hiking and biking, acquiring and reading more books, building bookshelves to house them . . . .
