The rules for women

    We always hear "the rules" from the female side._ Now here are the
    rules from the male side._ These are our rules!_ Please note... these
    are all numbered "1"
    ON PURPOSE!

    1. Learn to work the toilet seat._ You're a big girl._ If it's up, put

    it down. We need it up, you need it down._ You don't hear us
    complaining about you leaving it down.

    1. Sunday = sports._ It's like the full moon or the changing of the
    tides. Let it be.

    1. Shopping is NOT a sport._ And no, we are never going to think of it

    that way.

    1. Crying is blackmail.

    1. Ask for what you want... Let us be clear on this one: Subtle hints
    do not work! Strong hints do not work! Obvious hints do not work!
    Just say it!

    1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every
    question.

    1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That's
    what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.

    1. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.

    1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In
    fact, all comments become null and void after 7 days.

    1. If you won't dress like the Victoria's Secret girls, don't expect
    us to act like soap opera guys.

    1. If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us.

    1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways, and one of the
    ways makes you sad or angry, we meant the other one.

    1. You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you want it
    done. Not both. If you already know best how to do it, just do it
    yourself.

    1. Whenever possible, please say whatever you have to say during
    commercials.

    1. Christopher Columbus did not need directions and neither do we.
    1. ALL men see in only 16 colours, like Windows default settings.
    Peach, for example, is a fruit, not a colour. Pumpkin is also a fruit.
    We have no idea what
    mauve is.

    1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.

    1. If we ask what is wrong and you say "nothing," we will act like
    nothing's wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the
    hassle.

    1. If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an answer

    you don't want to hear.

    1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine.

    Really.

    1. Don't ask us what we're thinking about unless you are prepared to
    discuss such topics as football, shooting, hunting, or motor sports.

    1. You have enough clothes.

    1. You have too many shoes.

    1. I am in shape. Round is a shape.

    1. Thank you for reading this; Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the
    couch tonight, but did you know men really don't mind that, it's
    like camping.

    Pass this to as many men as you can - to give them a laugh.

    Pass this to as many women as you can - to give them an education!!
