1. When the modern man buys shoes for his spouse, he doesn’t have to ask her sister for the size. And he knows which brands run big or small.

This took me back a few years and made me laugh out loud. About 15 years ago, I was looking for a specific style/color sweater for my lady. I could not find it anywhere, but I knew it was what she wanted, so I made every effort to find it.

She's a size 4 and I marched into a Lane Bryant looking for the item. The staff was not amused. WTF did I know about shopping for women's clothes?

LOL...that’s funny! I bought one article of clothing for my wife in the 13 years (married 9) we’ve been together.

It was in the first or second year of our relationship and I got her jacket for her birthday. I though she would look good in it, and she did...but it was a shot in the dark for me size-wise, etc.

But she wore it only once or twice, so she felt otherwise.

Never again.

Lucky you weren't trying to buy clothes for a niece or daughter and stumbled into a Victoria's Secret. Probably would have gotten thrown out and had the cops called. LOL.

All I know about shoes for women if the heel is 6" tall and spiked they are OK with me.
