So, I read an article in the news paper about nagging wives getting their husbands killed, due to stress. I'll post part of the article below, then add a link to the whole thing, in case your interested.
"Nagging could cost the lives of hundreds of men.
Henpecked and argumentative couples more than twice as likely to die within ten years due to higher levels of stress and anxiety.
For most men a nagging wife can be little more than an irritation, but the arguments and worries that stem from a demanding partner may actually be a health hazard.
New research has found that the burden of a demanding partner is linked to hundreds of extra deaths each year.
Men who were subjected to 'nagging', constant demands and worries from their partners, were 2.5 as likely to die within ten years than those with less stressful relationships.
The effect is so strong it could account for hundreds of deaths a year, the researchers suggested.
However women may be more immune to nagging as there was little effect on their death rates, it was found."
Link to the entire article here:
I thought that this was pretty ridiculous, but it just goes to show that stress does bad things for people. I do feel sorry for the men who die because of their wives nagging. They must get pretty stressed out! Their wives must be pretty inconsiderate too.
