Mystery at Nuptials
Posted: Sat Apr 05, 2008 9:47 am
Throughout the ages, men have been trying to unlock the mystery as to why their wives who accepted them as they were
before they got married, begin the quest to change their behaviour and life-style once their vows are exchanged.
Finally, the riddle is solved. A social-scientist arrived at a simple and logical explanation.
When the bride, accompanied by her father, starts to walk slowly down the long aisle, she sees the altar at the end and
hears the choir singing a hymn. Walking down the aisle, the conditioning process where the brain absorbs these
three stimuli: aisle, altar, hymn, begins.
She becomes mesmerized as she continually reinforces these perceptions:
*aisle, altar, hymn. . .* aisle, altar, hymn. . . aisle, altar, hymn.
And finally, as she stops beside the groom, the conditioning process is complete.
She looks up at him smiling sweetly and keeps saying to herself...
*'I'll alter him.'*
