The Guys' Rules
At last a guy has taken the time to write this all down
Finally, the guys' side of the story.
(I must admit, it's pretty good.)
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 colors, like Windows default settings.
Peach, for example, is a fruit, not a color. 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 baseball, the shotgun formation, or monster trucks.
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.
DAS REAL..... WHAT YALL THINK? :lol:
I can't even front. This is very real.....but u never gonna get us to stop crying....it's our own special form of blackmail....cuz sum actually fall for it (unfortunately nobody I know lol)
:roll: give that "typical guy" stuff a rest.... THIS LIST IS SUPPOSED TO BE HUMOROUS, YET TRUE, instead of placing a bad stigma on it, learn from it, cuz one day u might ask ur significant other a question and get what u dont wanna hear, and ur gonna be like "yo, that list on HBCU-CENTRAL was on point...."
:idea: THE MORE YOU KNOW! :idea:

:lol: . I will admit, that mess was funny. But on the real? How are yall gonna get mad at her saying it's sounds like the typical guy? It may sound negative, but to a certain extent, isn't she right? This is supposed to be a list of characteristics that we can apply to most guys right? Well, if most men can be classified to the characteristics of this list, seems like it would be..."the typical guy".

our point is the "typical guy" label has come to be negative in the respect that it has been identified with almost animal traits. we arent all "typical males". sure we have our common likes and dislikes, but labeling us as "typical males" is a contradiction to our differences from those who actually do fit under this title. i hope that made sense...and for the record, im not mad... 8)

Kay, just making an observation. When i said it, i didn't mean it in a negative way. I just decided to get all analytical and say "well...if i'm supposed to apply this list to every man...wouldn't that mean they are all the same (aka typical)?" But of course i know you are all different as individuals. I'll be more mindful the next time i think about callin a guy "typical". And for the record...i know you're not mad...just yankin ya chain :wink:
mad props to whoever wrote it.
