Japanese entertainer tells wife: husbands dismiss opinions, 40 years is the limit

Japanese entertainer Emiko Uenami told a wife whose husband dismisses her opinions that men naturally deny spouses, declaring "40 years is the limit" for couples living together. The 37-year-old woman said her husband repeatedly negates her casual remarks, making her afraid to speak. Uenami, married 50 years, said men want to win against wives and advised not taking every word seriously. Former NHK announcer Norio Ishizawa suggested stating intentions before conversations. Uenami shared that even her husband contradicts trivial statements like "sugar is sweet." She believes the wife's frustration stems from lingering love. The July 24 video drew comments like "exactly" and "I agree" from viewers.
