But women don't have a premium on that kind of behavior-I think guys do it more.

Oh, there are psycho's out there all right. Statistically speaking, women are the overwhelming consumers of Zoloft; but that could simply mean that men are undiagnosed.

Regarding those god-awful tabloid pop quizes... my wife used to want to take those compatability quizes over and over. From the email, from the internet, from some chick magazine. I finally lost it with her ... I said "(explictive, a whole string of them, few if any repeated) it boils down to a simple question. Are you happy? Do you trust some (another list of new and somewhat unique profane explictives) idiot, whom you never met, will never meet, without any credentials of merit to determine if you are happy?" For the most part, we are a pretty happy couple. Like pretty much every couple on the planet, we have our moments. Now my wife knows not to bring up those god-awful quizes.

From my point of view, why play a game, if you cannot win, and only stand to lose? The quiz will always (I mean 100% of the time) create tensions in the relationship; I have never heard of a relationship benefitting from one of these pieces of tripe. Yet, women for god only knows what reason, not only flock to take the quiz, they then proceed to sabotage their relationships in order to meet some unknown author's fantasy of how someone else's life should be.

Can you think of one straight man who would do something similar? Now we may find inspriation in Playboy ... but take a quiz? Forgetaboutit!!

My husband and I actually used to find those quizzes to be very humorous and enjoyed taking them and tearing apart the idiots who write them and then think they can psychoanalyze everyone on the planet.

Simple pleasures are where you choose to find them.

Now we have more fun making fun of liberals!!!!!!
