“Why does a dad matter so much to a daughter, in particular? A dad is the one who teaches a daughter what a male is all about. It's the first man in her life--the first man she loves, the first male she tries to please, the first man who says no to her, the first man to discipline her. In effect, he sets her up for success or failure with the opposite sex.

So Dad sets up his daughter's marriage relationship too.”

Her language does not contain, it carries; it does not hold back; it makes possible.”
