    Man rules

    This was sent to me by a very good friend, who happens to be female.  If it's a repeat, I apologize.  Either way, enjoy.

    The Man Rules
    At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down

    Finally , the guys' side of the story.
    (
    I must admit, it's pretty good.)
    We always hear
    " the rules "
    From the female side.

    Now here are the rules from the male side.

    These are our rules!
    Please note.. these are all numbered "1 "
    ON PURPOSE!

    1. Men are NOT mind readers.

    1. Learn to work the toilet seat.  You're a big girl. If it's up, put it down.  We need it up, you need it down.  You don't hear us complaining about you leaving it down.

    1. Sunday
    bike day It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides.  Let it be.

    1. Shopping is NOT a sport.  And no, we are never going to think of it that way.

    1. Crying is blackmail.

    1. Ask for what you want.  Let us be clear on this one:
    Subtle hints do not work!  Strong hints do not work!Obvious hints do not work!  Just say it!

    1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.

    1. Come to us with a problem
    only if you want help solving it. That's what we do.  Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.


    1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument.  In fact, all comments become Null and void after 7 Days.


    1. If you think you're fat, you probably are.  Don't ask us.

    1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of the ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the
    other one

    1. You can either ask us to do something  Or tell us how you want it done.  Not both.  If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.

    1. Whenever possible, Please say WHATEVER you have to say during commercials..

    1. Christopher Columbus did
    NOT need directions and neither do we.

    1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings.  Peach, for example, is a fruit, not A color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have
    no idea what mauve is.

    1. If it itches, it
    will be scratched.  We do that.

    1. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," We will act like nothing's wrong.  We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle.

    1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, Expect an answer you don't want to hear.

    1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine...
    Really .

    1. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as
    Motorcycle racing or physics

    1. You have enough clothes.

    1. You have too many shoes.

    1. I am in shape.
    Round IS a shape!

    1. Thank you for reading this.  Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight; 
    But did you know men really don't mind that? It's like camping.


    I'll keep my guns, freedom and money. You keep the *change*.

    Re: Man rules

    I can live with most of those. 

    I would challenge the toilet seat one though.  If you leave it up, we see how bad your aim is.  Isn't it better to leave it down and hide the evidence?

    Re: Man rules

    A young married guy only 6-12 months into his first marriage must have written those rules.  By the time he's well into his 4th or 5th marriage, he will have revised those rules many times over.

    Re: Man rules

    If all we wanted to do was hide the evidence, we'd put the lid down too. And not flush. Smile [:)]

    Or we could do like my boys used to do when they were young. They wouldn't bother with lifting the seat, they'd just whiz all over the seat and leave it. We almost had to go to war in our house to get that straightened out. I finally solved the problem when I caught my four year old leaving the bathroom with the "evidence" all over the seat. I had him lower his britches and set his bare backside down on the wet seat. He didn't like it. I told him the girls didn't like it either, so lift the seat from now on. We never had that problem again.

    Great teaching technique PT.  I solved the problem in my house with Cheerio's and target practice when he was little.  Give them something to aim for and they seldom miss.  His dad already came house broken.  It seems he discovered a long time ago that he could hide in there and no one would bug him.

    Why? We don't care, and you will eventually clean it up. See? Win-win.Wink [;)]

    Re: Man rules

    The toilet seat dilemma in our house has been solved by the simple rule that EVERYONE puts the lid down. That way everyone has the same resonsibility for opening and closing the lid and/or seat. Since there are two males and two females in the house, this seemed to be the best policy.

    I like your solution. It's also important for everyone to remember that if the lid is down, the dog can't drink out of it and then come and give you a nice WET kiss.Big Smile [:D]

    We do this too, fcoy2....It keeps hairbrushes, toilet paper, cell phones and the likes from trying to take a swim....
