One morning the husband returns after several hours of fishing and decides to take a nap. Although not familiar with the lake, the wife decides to take the boat out. She motors out a short distance, anchors, and reads her book. Along comes a game warden in his boat. He pulls up alongside the woman and says, "Good morning, ma'am. What are you doing?" "Reading a book," she replies, thinking, Isn't that obvious? "You're in a restricted fishing area," he informs her. "I'm sorry, officer, but I'm not fishing. I'm reading." "Yes, but you have all the equipment. For all I know, you could start at any moment. I'll have to take you in and write you up." "If you do that, I'll have to charge you with sexual assault," says the woman. "But I haven't even touched you," says the game warden. "That's true, but you have all the equipment. For all I know, you could start at any moment." "Have a nice day, ma'am," and he left. MORAL: Never argue with a woman who reads. It's likely she can also think. | ||

There was a similar story about either a ROTC class or the Boy Scouts that had one of their representitives interviewed by a woman that didn't like the fact that they were teaching how to shoot a rifle. The woman accused the representitve of equiping them to be killers. The rep replyed that she was equiped to be a hooker. My summary does this story no justice. | ||

Never argue with a woman, period. Logical reasoning has no effect on them. You have to trick them with mind games and chocolate. But beware - they have a god-given talent for mind-games and they will do anything for chocolate. You should not try to engage them in this - you will probably lose. Just shut-up, act stupid, and make sure you have a secret bank account for your bike that she doesn't know about. (Message edited by naustin on August 28, 2006) | ||

Yes dear just keeps me in trouble...she hates it when I just agree with her. Speaking of that: If a man is in the forest with no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong? | ||

 I'm just saying in my experience, argueing with my wife/mother/sister is like trying to talk the earth into orbiting the sun in the opposite direction. And I've got about as good a chance at that as changing her mind. Of course I have a friend (a guy) who is a republican. I've got a better chance of convincing him that the earth is flat then that liberals have a point about anything.  | ||

A woman has the last word in any argument. Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument. | ||

during a holiday dinner several years ago, the usual suspects were all in attendance -- my wife and daughter, my mother in law, my sister in law, her daughter, and sis-in-laws long-term live in Sig Other (we really need a short word for that kinda relationship) my then jr high scholl aged daugher was showing off her education, and stated that she longed for a return to a matriarcal society. the ladies all looked at each other with knowing smiles on their faces, and Gary (long term SO) and I just burst out laughing that was the start of my daughter's formal eduation about where the power truly lies ;-} |
