    I got this off of an Epilepsy DB....I am not sure if the guy who submitted it was joking or not

    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! Print this out and pass to your partner for a
    greater understanding:

    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 bitching about
    you leaving it down.

    1. Birthdays, Valentines, and Anniversaries are not quests to see if we
    can find the perfect present yet again!

    1. Sometimes we are not thinking about you. Live with it.

    1. Don't cut your hair. Ever. Long hair is always more attractive than
    short hair. One of the big reasons guys fear getting married is that
    married women always cut their hair, and by then you're stuck with her.

    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. We don't remember dates. Mark birthdays and anniversaries on a
    calendar. Remind us frequently beforehand.

    1. Most guys own three pairs of shoes - tops. What makes you think we'd
    be any good at choosing which pair, out of thirty, would look good with
    your dress?

    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. Check your oil! Please.

    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 think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us. We refuse to
    answer.

    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. We have no idea what mauve is.

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

    1. We are not mind readers and we never will be. Our lack of
    mind-reading ability is not proof of how little we care about you.

    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 the shotgun formation, or monster trucks.

    1. You have enough clothes.

    1. You have too many shoes.

    1. No you really do have too many shoes.

    1. BEER is as exciting for us as handbags are for you.

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

    1. I'm in shape. ROUND is a shape.

    you don't want to hear.

    LOL. Very true.

    Agree with--1, 3, 7, 10, 11, 16, 21, 22 (most definitely), 23.

    Kind of agree with--6

    Take issue with/disagree--4, 9, 14. There's a woman at work I find very attractive who's maybe 5'3" and I'd guess 130, 135 pounds. But she's a bit heavy all over instead of her looking like it all went to her hips. From what I see on my wife I'd say this co-worker's children were by Cesearean too. But I'd jump at the chance to ask her out.

    Oh Shit! My puter went down can't read the rules!

    Guess just gotta fall back on Mama's advice: "Darlin' you give what your given, if he treat you like gold, you treat him like gold. But if he treat you like shit..........well, you know baby where shit belong and you should send him there!
