Sure you can. Your wife should always be the most beautiful woman in the room (in your eyes) You should always cherish your wife's body (curves and all) And answering "Nobody" to either #9 or #10 would be a lie.........we won't let you lie to us just to end the conversation.

There are two theories to arguing with a woman . . Neither works.
That says it all right there.

I learned early in my marriage 38 yrs ago that when she asked "how was the roast" or "how was the chicken" you do not say passable.

Those rules are funny.
I could tell you the REAL rules, but then the Woman's Conspiracy might take away my pms privileges.

I may have already said too much...

ON PURPOSE!
If I had known all these rules, my life would have been so much easier. Thank you for posting them. Perhaps these rules will be useful for me in the future.

Golly, if men were just easy to understand .............

I once overheard the rules. I was immediately visited by an SUV load of women dressed in suits. They all had dark glasses and ear pieces. If at any point I ever divulge a word of what I heard a snipers bullet will be instantly dispatched.

I think they are set up in the neighbors corn field.

Life happens. Sometimes we forget to call or get hung up with business. That's life.

But it's okay for the chic to slap a dude or yell at them, but if we do it they call the police and cry foul ... Not gonna happen with any girl I'm with and we teach our daughters the same, it's called MUTUAL respect.

4. The correct answer to "Do I look fat?" is never "Yes."

5. The correct answer to "Is she prettier then me?" is never "Yes."

6. Talking is good. Shouting is bad. Slapping is a felony.

7. Dish soap is your friend.

8. Hat does not equal shower, after-shave does not equal soap and warm does not equal clean.

9. Answering "Who was on the phone?" with "Nobody" is not going to end that conversation.

10. Answering "Whose lipstick is that?" with "Nobody" is not going to end that conversation either.

11. Two words: Clean Socks.

12. You are always wrong.

13. Always say you are sorry.

14. The rules are never fair. Accept them without quesitons, and expect them to change at a moments notice. The fact that she has to go through labor while you are sitting on your rump in the waiting room, smoking a cigar with your friends, isn't fair either, but it balances everything out.
#2 takes care of the other 13.
This might be a 'joke' but we all know it's not.....
I think it's sickening to see a man quiver and gravel to a woman as this 'joke' suggests. Bleck....

PS: If she's in the labor/delivery room.....she ain't feelin' a thing. There are so many drugs out there to make you comfy cozy, not to mention docs would rather schedule a c-section around their t-times and women allow them to do so in alarming numbers.....yeah, so, LDR is not the little shop of horrors like it used to be.

Some posts on this thread are further indication that we are completely losing our sense of humor.

Lighten up, people. Learn to laugh again. Yes, even at yourself. You'll be amazed at how much better you'll feel.

Husband, kids, brothers - whole family knows if you say you're going to call you better call or I figure you're in trouble and I'll come on the run; weapon in hand. FWIW, if I say I'm going to call then I call - unless I'm in trouble - then you better send help!

I NEVER said it was okay for a woman to hit a man! Gee Wiz! That's not the way things are done here in my world! 'Round here you don't hit, punch, push or kick anybody! That rule goes for grownups and kids.

Shewww weee they have drugs for everything.
"A little bit of this will take the 'edge off'" IE knock you through a loop.
Epidurals are "spinal cocktails" that make you go numb from the waist down, for HOURS.
"Safe post delivery drugs"....yeah. They say they 'won't pass through breast milk" so you can take those for post delivery.

Haven't had a baby in almost 17 years and that's the way it was back then! Had a gf who just delivered 2 years ago, and her LDR room was pretty posh. She had people bring her whatever she wanted. Ice packs, heat packs, more meds, etc. She opted for the C-section because she didn't want to go "through the pain".
My understanding is that the recovery time for a C is far longer and more painful than a vag birth? Maybe someone with a RN degree can help me out with this???
