Why do men die first?

This is a question that has gone unanswered for centuries...... but, now we know.

If you put a woman on a pedestal and try to protect her from the rat race...you're a male chauvinist. If you stay home and do the housework ...you're a pansy.

If you work too hard...there's never any time for her. If you don't work enough...you're a good-for-nothing bum.

If she has a boring repetitive job with low pay...this is exploitation. If you have a boring repetitive job with low pay.....you should get off your lazy behind and find something better.

If you get a promotion ahead of her.....that is favoritism. If she gets a job ahead of you......it's affirmative action.

If you mention how nice she looks......it's sexual harassment. If you keep quiet..........it's male indifference.

If you cry............you're a wimp. If you don't........you're an insensitive *******.

If you make a decision without consulting her.........you're a chauvinist. If she makes a decision without consulting you......she's a liberated woman.

If you ask her to do something she doesn't enjoy....... that's domination. If she asks you.........it's a favor.

If you appreciate the female form .....you're a pervert. If you don't ....you're gay.

If you like a woman to shave her legs, wear sexy lingerie and keep in shape .............you're sexist. If you don't.................you're unromantic.

If you try to keep yourself in shape......you're vain. If you don't ........you're a slob.

If you buy her flowers.............you're after something. If you don't ........you're not thoughtful.

If you're proud of your achievements........you're full of yourself.
If you aren't....... you're not ambitious.

If she has a headache............she's tired. If you have a headache.............you don't love her anymore.

If you want it too often.........you're over sexed. If you don't................there must be someone else.

So why do men die first?

Because they want to.

Yeah, that's a good way of putting it! Today, tell the wife the living room or family room tv is yours and the game is on so that means no home and garden shows!
Those home and garden shows drive me nuts and somehow the husband ends up with a flower boardered bathroom or bedroom, digging holes for the flower bed in the summer to plant more flowers to run over with the lawnmower, and having to hear Christopher Lowell's voice.
Oh well.

Pipercub,

Wow you hit the nail on the head! sounds like my house...all the way down to the flower bordered bathroom! but she watches "Lifetime" channel ALL sunday, you know the one....a bunch of shows produced by Ticked off women!

And yeah about the gardening thing too, she makes me go plant stuff, then in the middle of summer when its over 100 she lets the plants die cause its too hot to go out and water! lol

but....there is hope! I am heading off to a superbowl party here in a bit !!!! wooohoooo

OUCH

I thought it was we gave them some of "our" parts in the beginning and now we do not have enough to make it the distance.
