The REALITY is that we DO train our partners! It's a two-way street, though. Through compromise or adapting or adjusting to each other to make living together easier, we train each other to make it work. This is often unconscious, but it can also be conscious. Training can be a good thing - it depends on the motivation and the result.

LOL: "Train" your wife. You mean like you "train" a dog?
Damn, if my wife heard me use that term in regards to attmepting to instill certain habits or changes in her I'd be sleepin' on the couch for a week.
Oh, I just realized from your Screen Name that you're most likely female. That explains it: no married male--with the exception of some braindead alligator wrestling, NASCAR watching rednecks, would ever even dream about trying to train our wives. We long ago put away such childish notions. LOL. Like it or not guys, most of us are the ones who get trained.
LOL I may be the one who drools when she walks into the room, but I also "trained" her to dress sexily for me, compared to how she used to dress. Everything we've "trained" each other to do has been a win-win scenario and there's nothing devious about it.
So I guess there is still a large portion of the male population that consider women cattle. "Train you're wife"? You don't own her to begin with, that is unless you endorse some perverse religious doctrine or slavery.
Never been into gender roles, let alone the idea of owning and "training" my wife. 2012 and I still have to listen to this retardation, and sadly; be generalized by most females as one of these screwed up "men".
Well a cowbell IS cheaper then a diamond ring.....just saying
Call it what you want but individuals who subscribe to this sort of ideology deserve one another. It's a problem for me when this way of thinking permeates society on a large scale.
"Training" your partner means that they become predictable and boring. The key is to find someone that constantly adds to your life, what fun is he/she if you know exactly how they'll behave at every moment.
Men grow tired of their wives and their neediness, women are disappointed when their husbands grow tired of them along with the constant demands of the husband......all because you've "trained" them to be this way.
Maybe I'm just crazy but I'd much rather be with someone not in need of training. Not looking for a pet.

I have never slept on the couch.
I do believe you can train your wife in the sense of setting the example.
I also believe you can say things like, "Do I smell coffee?" When she says, "No, there is no coffee on."
~wait for it~
HER: "Would you like me to brew some coffee for you?"
ME: "If it's no trouble that would be nice."
