Merits/demerits for men (old classic)

    For thousands of years, men have tried to understand the rules when dealing
    with women.
    Finally, this merit/demerit guide will help you to understand just how it
    works.

    Remember, in the world of romance, one single rule applies: Make the Woman
    happy. Do something she likes, and you get points. Do something she dislikes
    and points are subtracted. You don't get any points for doing something she
    expects. Sorry, that's the way the game is played.


    Here is a guide to the points system:

    I dont think you'd lose 100 points for the last one, prolly end up losing a limb or two, if its that time of the month, make that all 4 limbs and your head, and be buried in the backyard in a bin liner.

    The female always makes the rules.


    The rules are subject to change at any time without prior notification.


    No male can possibly know all the rules.


    If the female suspects the male knows all the rules, she must immediately change some or all the rules.


    The female is never wrong.


    If the female is wrong, it is because of a flagrant misunderstanding which was a direct result of something the male did or said wrong.


    If Rule 6 applies, the male must apologize immediately for causing the misunderstanding.


    The female can change her mind at any given point in time for any reason.


    The male must never change his mind without express written consent from the female.


    The female has every right to be angry or upset at any time.


    The male must remain calm at all times, unless the female wants him to be angry or upset.


    The female must not, under any circumstances, let the male know whether or not she wants him to be angry or upset.


    Any attempt by the male to document these rules could result in severe bodily harm.


    If the female has PMS, all rules are null and void
