SOME HELPFUL ADVICE FROM MEN TO WOMEN...

  • First of all ladies, the floor is an acceptable clothing storage location.

  • Never, never ask me to puchase feminine products. You can assume that I will come home with the wrong thingy-majiggers.

  • When watching TV please follow these rules of ettiquet: hugging is O.K. because I can still see the screen. Kissing is acceptable only during timeouts and commercials. Questions should also be limited to this period as you stand a much better chance that I'll be listening and of getting a true response.

  • When we are watching your show and I change the channels during a commercial do not hassle me that they are over and to change it back. I'm a proffesional. I always know when the timing is right. Also, when I am channel surfing do not ask me to go back, I can assure you there was a good reason why I skipped it.

  • If you need help with the laundry, I am more than willing. However, bear in mind, that I believe carrying it from the bedroom to the washer is half the chore and after that I am free to return to the couch.

  • If I mention that a male friend of mine is allowed to do something it is not necessary for you to call his wife or girlfriend to discuss it. This is a big no-no.

  • If you don't like the way I am driving feel free to close your eyes. And please refrain from making that reverse inhaling alarmed noise. I haven't hit anything yet and if I do it will be your fault.

  • I go clothes shopping to buy, never to look.

  • Just tell me what you want me to wear before I get dressed. And remember that this takes me less than 10 minutes no matter what the occasion is. After all I am getting dressed, not getting ready.

  • Don't ask me if I prefer one of your outfits over another or if a certain accessory should be worn or not. I consider this a no win situation and would rather just wait for you to get dressed while watching TV.

  • Don't bother ever asking me if you look fat in something you're wearing. I won't fall for that. The answer will always be NO!

  • If you want me to put the seat down when I am finished then you should leave the seat up when you are finished. It's only fair.

  • I will cook anything you want, as long as it is on a BBQ.

  • And honey, yelling to me across the house sounds exactly like stadium noise to me. I'm not ignoring you on purpose.
