We all know the book Love Languages that Gary Chapman made. The five love languages, if you don't know it, it's an awesome theory.

The idea of we all like to receive love in different ways, but we often give love in the way we want to receive it, not in the way someone else wants to receive it.

So the five love languages are words of affirmation, physical touch, receiving gifts, quality time, and acts of service.

I'm a big fan of the five love languages, but listening to the podcast and something that sister said really made me re-evaluate it.

And it's talking about the ticker, you know, as a man, I grew up reading and understanding that the greatest act of service I could do for my spouse was to vacuum the rug and clean the bathroom, which I now know is just complete horseshit.

I'm reading a book right now. And a line in the book says, my wife's love language is acts of service. One of the things I do for her regularly as an act of love is vacuuming the floor.

Like this is what I was taught. And this is so offensive now because of the three of you. And thank you for that.

I now know that the greatest act of service is not doing things on the ticker list. It's actually seeing the ticker list.

Episode: 151. WTF with The Five Love Languages?

It was discussed as a 1992 book that suggests everyone has a preferred language for giving and receiving love, and good partners should learn to express love in their partner's language. However, it also faced criticism for its heteronormative and potentially damaging advice.

"

What was it called? The Five Love Languages or something?

It was 1992 book and his idea is that everyone has preferences about how they would like to give and receive love.

So there's a preferred language that everyone speaks and it's either gifts, quality time, words of affirmation, physical touch or acts of service.

And the point is that that's how they express their love and that good partners, successful partners will take the time to figure out how to express their love in a way that translates to their partner's language.

It's so interesting when one of these books by a conservative fundamentalist type Christian pastor, which is what this man is, kind of leaks out into the general population.
