Someone just asked 'what's wrong with women' - so here's a lighthearted look at 'men's rules'

This powerpoint display is meant to give the boys a laugh and the girls (perhaps) an education on how the boys think. (Like we didn't already know, huh?)

I am SO gonna end up laughing...

jauntie..I've seen that before and still laugh because its so true! Been married for 26 years and I still do some of that stuff...BUT...I do have a good response to when my hubby has been fussing about me buying things. Ok...go buy something you want, hang it in the closet for about a week, then wear it out. When he says, is that NEW???? Tell him, nope been hanging in my closet for a while now...Its the TRUTH!!!

That's still focused on women as we know them. Someone should produce a similar thing for arab females. Did you know that the arab female name Fatimeh means a baby camel that has just been weaned from breast feeding! Honestly.

Glad you enjoyed that little show :)

Got the PM, thanks very much for that.

Am about to head for bed (if I can wake hub up off the sofa!!!) That should have been another on the list of rules.

"Don't let us fall asleep on the sofa,

but if you wake us up we'll bite your head off

- it's what we do"

That has got to be one of the funniest things I have ever read. I could hear my husband's voice as I was reading each page. After 30 years I gave up trying to change him a long time ago. In fairness he now realizes there is no such thing as a woman having too many pairs of shoes - he gave up on me too LOL. He also gave up trying to understand why I need a handbag to go with just about every pair too.

I saved the file so I can e-mail it to my hubby. I am sure he will forward to all of his buddies very quickly.

Have a great evening.

Lisa

P.S. Did you get my PM on the driver?

I need all the advises you could throw in my way. Even on a long distance relationship (LDR), I always fall for my "MAN"'s jests.

he makes me blow my fuse now and then..lol

Even after being married nearly 30 years I STILL begin to rise to something my hub says before I realise it's him doing his dry, Scottish way of takin' the pish outta me!

I fall for it almost every time lol

i remember my "MAN" called me just to read it from his laptop.

I was kind of surprised when he blurted to me..."Remenber that and WOMEN are to be seen and not HEARD". I thought he was serious then but he started laughing when he say I was about to talk back.

Only then I realized that he was "winding" me up.

That made me ask, is all Scotsmen jokes like that?

By jauntie• 30 Jun 2007 21:27

when I want him to look at stuff I receive by e-mail which I find amusing - he's just not interested.

However, the b'stard read that one all the way through, nodding at each page as it went by !!! grrrrrrrrr

:D

I was horrified as to how much of that actually WAS true! I'm not a shopper so the clothes and shoes didn't apply, but as for the rest ..... *gulp*
