Don't you know the wifey is the only one supposed to do the dishes, vacuum, dust, make the beds, laundry...

NO wonder we have big dumb goons that don't know how to cook or clean when their wives die.

This 50s mentality of "Leave it to Beaver".. or "Andy Griffith" really needs to die!...

I'm secure enough in my manhood to split the chores 50/50...
Too bad other men aren't

*gasp*

You mean, men can, can do the dishes too? *wide eyed*

My wife doesn't like it when I wash the dishes. The paper gets soggy and clogs the drain. :eek: You should see me trying to launder the dinner napkins!

If it is it's because it's the truth.

I know some women who wouldn't care what their house looked like but they would be at the door welcoming anyone who crossed the threshold. I also know many men who are better hosts than women are! But that's about natural inclinations and "bents". That's not about role.

All you have done is show just how messed up people are since earlier times.

But then again, a good home is run so that no warning is needed. That's how I try to deal with it here. Yeah, we're not always clean and perfect but I'm about people, not dust bunnies. :) Stop by my house anytime and I won't look to let anyone have it. It's not just my home but my husband's. Why should he be punished for not "warning" me? That makes NO sense.

The fact that you expect this of her says a lot about you. Sad. Sadder even more than you would disparage other husbands so.

I didn't say anything about her, I was talking about me, "Q", you're not as omniscient as the rest of the "Q" I see.

I'm sitting here wondering who a middle-aged, divorced, self-supporting woman should submit to, because some people obviously think she is too stupid and easily led to run her own life...

My wife lives a charmed life just like Aunt Bea and June Cleaver, only she loves her Mustang! We have 4 wonderful kids who adore their parents, love to laugh ALOT! and do most everything as a family, except like "Q" when he washes the dishes using a roll of toilet paper as the
"catch-all" that is good for every task!:type:

no, no, paul, you got it all wrong.
I'm the ape.
There've been some posters in the past, some still here and some gone, who think I've got a simian brain, so I wanted to make them happy.
you know, love your enemies and all that jazz ?
I love apes, man.
Had a pet monkey once back in me ole country in me ole farm who was better than any guard dog.
I tells ya.
Ain't no one who can just go pick up any of my piglets, or the neighbors'.
He knows each and every other animal around the neighborhood and which one belongs to whom he'd raise a ruckus heard miles around if anyone attempted to steal one of them.

Oh, OK, forgive me, it's just some people call people apes because they act like they poop in their hands and then throw it at people.:type:

Maybe in your home it is.

Oh? How is that? To have a home ready to suddenly have a 17 year old come to live with you for months? To have a couple stop in who were in town who lost your number so just dropped by instead and we welcome them in because we're ready for guests? To be able to put a meal on the table at the drop of a hat? I think that sounds like.......earlier times, does it not? I don't see anything anywhere about warning about guests in the Book.

OK, so tell me step by step how you change your oil and what you do when the filter is stuck?:type:

Oh, had to edit. I forgot she stands next to her car with her dress on while I'm under it in case I need anything more than the chance to look up.......

I make sure ALL of us know how to change the oil. When my husband was on crutches for trying to remove his baby toe from his foot (the bone held out OK - but the skin gave in so he had to have the bone put back inside), I had to change the flat tires on his car (two of them!). No problem here. When I had 4 c-sections and numerous other surgeries guess who cooked dinner and cleaned?

My kids will all know how to change the oil, change the tires, fix a light, do the laundry, cook a meal, balance a checkbook and do basic carpentry. I'm sure the women in the Bible didn't leave the donkey's hooves just to the men! LOL
