Rules that guys wished girls knew.
1. If you think you’re fat, you probably are. Don’t ask us.
2. Learn to work the toilet seat: if it’s up, put it down.
3. Don’t cut your hair. Ever…
4. Birthdays, Valentines, and Anniversaries are not quests to see if he can find the perfect present.
5. If you ask a question you don’t want an answer to, expect an answer you don’t want to hear.
6. Don’t ask what he’s thinking unless you’re prepared to discuss such topics as navel lint, shotgun formation, and monster trucks.
7. Sunday = sports. It’s like the full moon or the changing of the tides, let it be.
8. Shopping is not a sport.
9. Anything you wear is fine. Really.
10. You have enough clothes.
11. You have too many shoes.
12. Your brother is an idiot, your ex-boyfriend is an idiot, and your father is beyond idiot.
13. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers.
14. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.
15. Don’t fake it. We’d rather be ineffective than deceived.
16. Anything we said 6 or 8 months ago is inadmissable in an argument. All comments become null and void after 7 days.
17. Don’t rub the lamp if you don’t want the genie to come out.
18. Women wearing wonderbras or low-cut blouses lose their rights to complain about having their boobs stared at.
19. Consider golf a mini-vacation from you. We need it, just like you.
20. Telling us that the models in the men’s magazine are airbrushed makes you look jealous and petty, and it’s certainly not going to deter us from reading the magazines.
21. If you don’t dress like the Victoria’s Secret girls, don’t expect us to
act like the soap opera guys.
22. Your mom doesn’t have to be our best friend.
23. Don’t give us 50 rules when 25 will do.
24. Ask for what you want. Subtle hints don’t work.
25. Sometimes, he’s not thinking about you. Live with it.
26. Get rid of your cat. And No, it’s not different, it’s just like any other cat.
27. Dogs are better than any cats. Period.
28. No, he doesn’t know what day it is. He never will. Mark anniversaries on a calendar
25 Things Women Should Know!
1. SportsCenter starts at 11:00 PM and runs an hour. This is a great time to pay bills, put laundry in the dryer or talk to your sister.
2. Two hot dogs and a beer at a baseball game do, in fact, constitute going out to dinner.
3. Unlike you, we essentially want to dress just exactly like all our friends. Thus, you need not go much further than the Gap, J. Crew or the local Patagonia store.
4. If we see you in the morning and at night, why call us at work?
5. Butthead is the smart one.
6. Is it too much to ask to have the bra match the underwear?
7. You probably don’t want to know what we’re thinking about.
8. Silence does not need to be filled with discussions about “us” and “the relationship.”
9. Things you can help with: the Sunday crossword, yard work, the dishes, cleaning, and grocery shopping.
10. Things you should let us do alone: figuring out where we are, watching anything on TBS, playing cards, smoking cigars and picking out the beer.
11. Socks never constitute a gift.
12. Department stores and malls were designed so that when you want to look at bed linen, shower curtains or handbags, there are always some speakers, tires or sporting equipment nearby.
13. We don’t know anything about handbags. Don’t even ask.
14. We did water the plants. They died anyway. Nobody knows why this happens.
15. Even if you think he’s cute, Kevin Costner can’t act.
16. Of course, neither can Elle McPherson, but she had the good sense to do “Sirens” rather than “Waterworld.”
17. Curley is the bald one.
18. Compromise does not mean that we abandon our position in favor of yours.
19. Sports Illustrated is a better magazine than Cosmopolitan. Just accept that.
20. Its in neither your interest nor ours to take the Quiz together.
21. Unless you are willing to follow the careers of Mo Vaughn, Cal Ripken, David Robinson, Michael Jordan, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Chris Farley, don’t expect us to know what Helen Gurley Brown, Hilary Clinton, Naomi Wolf or your sister are up to.
22. Sex on a weeknight is generally welcome. Three hours of post-coital conversation are not.
23. Dinner out is a pretty good birthday present. Two tickets to a ball game are even better.
24. No, you can’t have the remote control.
25. If you must take us with you into Victoria’s Secret, never, ever leave
us alone. All the old fat ladies make mean faces at us and only add to our discomfort.
