No kidding.

Clean the garage.
Man: Hangs up all the tools on the wall, puts cans on the shelf in size order.
Woman: Sweeps garage floor.
Just as at a party a woman may not perceive why her man had to walk across the room and kick the chair out from under a stranger.
What’s a woman?
I know some women who are total slobs. More how they were raised.
A lot about how men can “learn” to perceive things differently. And how they can be “retrained” via paternity leave etc. Nothing about women needing to learn anything. Like how money doesn’t grow on trees. Na. Nothing like that.
Gosh. Just wait until they tackle shopping.
During which women must visualize every store item in their house...
I question the basic premise.
As I see this, the basic premise is: Men are wrong. Men don’t see things the right way. Men need to change. Men need to be more like women. Because, then Men will be less wrong.
Maybe men and women are different?
Exactly how I read it too. I actually deal like the authors didn’t have the balls to call women out on any shortcomings. That might be misogynistic I suppose.
A tour in the military somehow installed this into you. Believe me, after having to pass a few white glove inspections you develop a deep need to make things shine.
Deal=feel.
Those philosophers are close but fail to win the banana.
Paraphrase
“The major difference between men and women is that women have a vocabulary almost totally devoid of nouns. If a man is drying dishes while his wife washes them after dinner and asks, “Where does this cup go?’ he is expecting an answer like, ‘Put the cup on the second self of the left cupboard’. He wife replies, “Put that, there.” Which isn’t helpful at all.”
~ C.S. Lewis
I have heard men in marriage counselling say they predominately are the ones counselled that they need to change.
The headline: SO TRUE
Many women have Obsessive Compulsive Cleaning Disorder
It’s been my experience that men deem “woman’s work” as being beneath them. If you want to be valued, lift heavy objects and fix things.
That may also be why in previous generations it was desirable to accomplish “woman’s work” while they weren’t watching, sort of giving the effect that everything just got done without anyone being devalued by being seen to actually do the work.
😂 Exactly
