are very strong and clearly stated. For those (like myself) that assumed Italian women still at that time were docile, it was a real eye opener.
The wedding preparation? Sounds like you should watch one of those Steve Martin Dad movies... Thank God, I've got a few years to save up.

You assumed (at ANY time?) that Italian women are docile?
Sheesh....
did live in a very male-dominated culture where young girls could not go out alone w/out female relatives in attendance. Teen dating? No way!
Also, it was considered (still is, I guess) okay for guys to mess around but if the wife did... it was legal to shoot her (nope, not the guy).
Italian women lagged behind other Western countries in college attendance, jobs, etc. I'd bet they still do.
But "docile?" No. You're right. My Italian grandmother would crawl from her grave to slap me if she had read that. Oops.
This way if I go on the floor and make a fool out of myself, it has at least some chance of being somewhat original...My wife does not see the "women's opinions" as something not already present in the normal human ones, she is too much of a woman to be a feminist, so all and by itself that alone would not be an attraction for her, but from my memory the Theorema is sufficiently removed from his works she used to find objectionable, and the taste of mediocrity that Seinfeld sets in your mouth might get too much by the time it shows up... so I suspect I will get off with a suspended sentence...
