ASk Dr Love: The Relationship Power Trip

Dr. Love tackles the controversial and misogynistic love advice in Dr. Rawlings\' new book. He writes that our intimate relationships are nothing more than power trips in disguise. He also believes that behind the degeneration of modern romance and relationships is the following central premise: The one who holds the power is the person who cares the least. And if that’s not bad enough, he says that marriage is nothing more than institutionalized prostitution! Needless to say, Dr. Love has some disagreements with this unusual take on love!
