[Phantom Lord]

Q: Do these pants make my butt look big?

A: Its not the pants.

[sauropod]

"Now, this is not the typically self-flagellating column about men written by a man in a degrading attempt to appeal to female readers – the literary equivalent of the repugnant canine habit of rolling on one's back and urinating."

Don't get any ideas.

That rally in Washington, D.C yesterday spoke volumes about the divide between women and men. Few men showed up to support women on abortion. I mean where are all the LIBERAL men? Good question.

"No, baby. Your butt makes your butt look big." Then duck, run, whatever keeps you alive.

Oh, com'n. My husband is a major magpie. I tend to keep my own counsel------and I know if my pants make me look fat without asking.

[Williams]

My question was what kind of people are so motivated as to want to rally for a decidedly negative practice such as abortion? My answer: Leftist Cause Of The Month Club memebers.

[dirtboy]

Rather, it is a brief attempt to decrypt the male psyche for the benefit of women who might be interested.

Yeah, all three of them. The rest would rather just be able to continue complaining about men.

If a woman treats a man with civility and respect, maintains a cheerful attitude toward him and encourages him believe in himself, he will not only respond with love and affection, but will consider it an honor to lay down his life for her, both metaphorically and, if the occasion demands it, literally.


*LOL!!!!!! the humor in that statement

Refreshingly simple.

i would have thought it would be an easy place to score, then i watched the c-span coverage. never mind.

[Just another Joe]

I'm going to be the exception. I'm going to treat this seriously.

Don't ask a man what he's thinking unless you can accept that a man thinks about sex, on average, every 6 to 7 seconds.
It doesn't have to be, "What would she be like in bed?" It can be, "Wow, I wonder what my wife would look like in those pants?".

Men are not necessarily less verbally skilled. They give greater emphasis to nonverbal signals. Men do try to, "articulate their meaning as precisely as they can." so if a man isn't saying anything it usually means he has nothing to say. He's watching for the nonverbal signal as to whether or not this is REALLY important.

It IS a good thing to encourage the boy in the man at times but the times have to be chosen with care because a man will almost ALWAYS, under almost ANY circumstance, go along with this.

Men and women are different. Fact of life.

[colorado tanker]

What do men want?

A cute girl, beer, the remote control. Not necessarily in that order.

[Taliesan]

Because we think she actually means exactly what she says.

[Mr. Jeeves]

For some reason, many women operate under the misconception that treating the men in their lives disrespectfully is cute or somehow scores them social points. But not only does this behavior lower the woman in the eyes of those witnessing it, rest assured that it causes bitter resentment in the man so treated, even if he refuses to speak out in his own defense.

You can't tell the "Sex and the City" generation things like that - they've spent a whole lifetime getting the opposite message from television. They will never believe it.

The abortion activists are the women least likely to ever need one.

[TheBigB]

To put it as Jeff Foxworthy did, "I'd like a beer and I'd like to see somethin' nekkid."

[martin_fierro]

"Do these glasses make my head look fat?"

[annyokie]

In my experience it is hot meals and a hotter woman.
