Unisex \u00a9 Benjamin Kanarek<\/dd>\n<\/dl>\n<\/div>\n

At last a guy has taken the time
\nto write this all down. Finally, the guys’ side of the story.
\n(must admit, it’s pretty good.)
\nWe always hear”the rules”
\nFrom the female side.
\nNow here are the rules from the male side.
\nThese are our rules!
\nPlease note.. These are all numbered “1 ”
\nON PURPOSE!<\/strong><\/em>
\n1.Men are NOT mind readers.
\n1. Learn to work the toilet seat. You’re a big girl.If it’s up, put it down.
\nWe need it up, you need it down.
\nYou don’t hear us complaining about you leaving it down.
\n1. Sunday sports It’s like the full moon
\nor the changing of the tides.
\nLet it be.
\n1. Crying is blackmail.
\n1. Ask for what you want.
\nLet us be clear on this one:
\nSubtle hints do not work!
\nStrong hints do not work!
\nObvious hints do not work!
\nJust say it!
\n1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers
\nto almost every question.
\n1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it.
\nThat’s what we do.
\nSympathy is what your girlfriends are for.
\n1. Anything we said 6 months ago
\nis inadmissible in an argument.
\nIn fact, all comments become Null and void after 7 Days.
\n1. If you think you’re fat, you probably are.
\nDon’t ask us.
\n1. If something we said can be interpreted\u00a0 two ways
\nand one of the ways
\nmakes you sad or angry, we meant the other one
\n1. You can either ask us to do something
\nOr tell us how you want it done.
\nNot both.
\nIf you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself .
\n1. Whenever possible, Please say whatever you have to say
\nduring commercials..
\n1. Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions
\nand neither do we.
\n1. ALL men see in only 16 colors,
\nlike Windows default settings.
\nPeach, for example, is a fruit, not A color.
\nPumpkin is also a fruit.
\nWe have no idea what mauve is.
\n1. If it itches, it will be scratched.
\nWe do that.
\n1. If we ask what is wrong and you say “nothing,”
\nWe will act like nothing’s wrong.
\nWe know you are lying,\u00a0 but it is just not worth the hassle.
\n1. If you ask a question you don’t want an answer to,
\nExpect an answer you don’t want to hear.
\n1. When we have to go somewhere,
\nabsolutely anything you wear is fine..Really
\n1. Don’t ask us what we’re thinking about
\nunless you are prepared to
\ndiscuss such topics as baseball or
\nmotor sports
\n1. You have enough clothes.
\n1. You have too many shoes.
\n1. I am in shape. Round IS a shape!
\n1. Thank you for reading this.
\nYes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight;
\nBut did you know men really don’t mind that?
\nIt’s like camping.
\nPass this to as many men as you can to give them a laugh.
\nPass this to as many women as you can –
\nto give them a bigger laugh<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
