When Tammy Wynette sang "D-I-V-O-R-C-E," she famously said she "spelled out the hurtin' words" to spare her child the pain of family breakup. In this innovative work, Ted Ownby considers how a wide range of writers, thinkers, activists, and others defined family problems in the twentieth-century American South. Ownby shows that it was common for both African Americans and whites to discuss family life in terms of crisis, but they reached very different conclusions about causes and solutions. In the civil rights period, many embraced an ideal of Christian brotherhood as a way of transcending divisions. Opponents of civil rights denounced "brotherhoodism" as a movement that undercut parental and religious authority. Others, especially in the African American community, rejected the idea of family crisis altogether, working to redefine family adaptability as a source of strength. Rather than attempting to define the experience of an archetypal "southern family," Ownby looks broadly at contexts such as political and religious debates about divorce and family values, southern rock music, autobiographies, and more to reveal how people in the South used the concept of the family as a proxy for imagining a better future or happier past.

In society's overzealous pursuit of political correctness and gender equality, the basic relationship needs between men and women have been distorted. Experts like Dr. Laura Schlessinger and Alison Armstrong have been saying for years that the key to a healthy, fulfilling relationship is to honor each others' primal needs: all men want sex and attention; all women want to be protected and provided for. Unless we can embrace these needs and find a partner willing to do the same, our relationships are doomed to failure. Through a series of relationships, Robert Stern struggled for years to understand these principles. After the painful split from his third wife, he embarked on a "Quest for Shallowness," embracing his need for sex and attention, and discovered there's nothing shallow about meeting one's personal needs. For Certain I'm Hurtin' chronicles Stern's roller coaster journey through love, sex, and the search for meaningful relationships in frank, unapologetic detail. He hopes his quest and revelations can help men and women learn how to transform their relationships into unions of true acceptance, love, and sexual fulfillment.
