Eric Bartels, a feature writer for the Portland Tribune, explains what it is like to live with spousal anger in the essay “My Problem with Her Anger.” Bartels starts his essay with him cleaning dishes when he realizes the grill top had been in the sink soaking for an extended period of time. It is then when he finds the white line between men and women. The white line is doing the work when it needs to be done versus putting it off. He says how he has little energy as usual after a work day, but he knows that he should still wash the grills. Bartels knows he should do things like make the bed, throw underwear in the hamper when he gets up or takes them off, not later. He says those little things are what tick women off the most.
