Despite being obvious, I think it's important to note that that policy applies to more than just marriage.
While complaining about something can be a useful outlet, complaint without action towards resolution only serves to reinforce negativity towards the source (or percieved source) of the complaint.
But keep in mind that often when someone (particularly women) voice their opinion or feeling about something, it may sound like a complaint, but it really isn't, they simply want to be listened to. It's usually apparent because they'll mention that they've tried something, or are trying, or are going to, but in the meantime they want someone to hear them out. |
