  1. You actually believe BBW = big BEAUTIFUL wife.
  2. You believe nagging is essential for personal growth.
  3. You really look forward to the day your BBW wife divorces you and you gladly fork over 50% over your hard earned assets, plus child support and alimony (a lard ass bitch for sure is not going to have a good job). Then after that you have to figure out how to live on 20% of your income.

No, no book for the gents to follow (no offense, Pip) but there should be...

Wait a minute! I take out the garbage and I mow the lawn!!
Me and UPS man here are gonna have a little chat...

Seriously though, some of these suggestions aren't bad - after all, what man or woman, after a hard day at work, doesn't
deserve companionship, a warm greeting and a few minutes of
pampering when they get home???

And yes, 705, I do have an older sister, but we're not all that much alike. I'm sending you her photo here and maybe I can get you guys together, but I would really consider giving your wife one more chance...

I show other half the link of the perfect wife. she laughed at me.

Thanks Sammie. Wifey is sitting here reading the thread with me. I pointed out what you said about doing the lawn and garbage. I suggested that and I end up getting slapped!

Think I need to trade her in for 2-20 yr olds. oops, well that didn't go over to well either.

******Side note..... Never ever joke with a woman going through metapause:confused1

Pip,

Didn't mean to turn you into a punching bag.

I was a single parent for quite a while so the chores, yard work, shoveling snow, etc. are automatic. If he wants to help, fine. If not, heck with him!!!

And speaking of menopause, sweet pea, remember that
men's hormone parties begin WAY before ours do...Try around age 30!! when you're all starting to get tired and grumpy and that gorgeous head of hair starts slipping away...Then later on when you guys level off, WE hit the front of the parade...

Entirely too much fun...

That is all well a good, boys. However, this is modern times and women do not have to sit home and be the good wifey. Before, these women didn't have a choice. It was get married or leave with your parents for the rest of your life.

By the way, you all do realize that men started women's lib. During WWII, the government (at the time run by white men) decided to encourage women to go to the factories and work b/c the men were off at war. When the men came back, the govt tried to push the women back home but it was too late. We found out we also enjoy getting out and working.

A couple things about American men:
First, American men use to be so bad about paying child support (to provide for their offspring) that now you can get thrown in jail for not paying.
Second, some American men like the idea of staying home with the kids. Also, I have met numerous guys who love cooking.
Third, American men tend to have a double-standard. What's ok for you isn't ok for a woman. For example, from the nomarriage.com

American women..
- most likely to cheat (Yeah, like American guys are so loyal!)

- highest rate of divorce (60% - US-US marriages; 20% - US-foreign marriages) (Takes 2. I'd say anyone willing to blame one person for a relationship breakdown probably was the bigger problem in the relationship)

- largest payout in divorce court (you'll be ... for everything you earned, plus most of what you will earn for years to come) (That's pretty tough considering men make 20% more than women for doing the exact same job)

- most likely to believe in feminism and "equality" (And...)

- most likely to hate men (I have yet to meet a women who truly hated men as a whole. Yet, I have met men who treat women worse than they would their dog.)

- spend least amount of time with her children (How much time do fathers spend with their children? Also, women must want to be with their children or there wouldn't be so much demand for flexibility at work to be with family)

- worst at cooking and cleaning (Whatever?!!)

- ****ed & chucked by tons of guys before tricking you into marriage (First, a man is pretty pathetic if he gets "tricked" into marrying anyone. Second, I would venture to guess in most married couples, the man is more experienced than the women in bed.)

Had to put my two cents in for women. American women are great. And trust me, women from other cultures have their goods and bads as well. I know b/c I actually spend time with them.

I am not saying American men aren't great. I really enjoy being a friend and/or significant other to American men.

All this being said, as Americans, everyone else hates us. We really should stick together.
