Does anyone want to gripe or compliment anything about the opposite sex?

2. He made a perverted comment to me when a nurse put on those long stockings to prevent leg clots before my hernia surgery!

Pffft! Now had he made the comment to the nurse I could see a problem.  ;D



Vain, shallow, pretentious, narrow-minded, fearful women suck.   :P

The same can be said for men with those traits as well  ;)

umm.

I have a question.

Do all women want to handle the money and financial matters in a relationship?

My ex wife and ex longtern gf both wanted to control the money issues. It is not that I am bad at it as I have run a successful business for many years.

Is this a common occurance or have I just met dominating woman?

I like the handcuffs idea... LOL

Seriously, Rainey you make me laugh as usual.... love you girl!

And I agree with Kat... I love men, and can't live without them (it)... which at times causes lots of the usual problems. LOL

:o

The opposite sex drives me absolutely batshit. But I guess that's par for the course.

I've only peeped in on this thread occasionally, mostly because I don't have any gripes. Seriously. People are people. Some are femalien, some are from Uranus, all are unique. Statistics works for large groups, not individuals; pigeon-holing individuals based on the group to which they're arbitrarily assigned is just plain silly.

Mary and I defy stereotypes in many ways.

I started to list the ways, but realized it sounded like I was bragging on myself, which was not my intent. We're just... defiant.  ;D

I agree Error, I'm even having trouble figuring myself anymore. :)  I think it's people in general though some people seem to want some things so bad and they don't have any idea what to do once they get them.  Ramble, ramble............. :-\

This is a hard one to comment on and I definitely can't speak for all women of course.  I handle the finances because my husband is really bad at it and asked me to.  Now whenever he complains I ask him if he wants the checkbook back and he shuts up! :) 

A physic and several of my friends have told me I'm dominating but I think Rick needs to have a sense of direction.  I just told Rick what I wrote and he swears he has a sense of direction and I swear he does too, a circle, without me off course! ;D
He told me to tell you that he never realized he had all of these problems until I told him. ::)  He doesn't mind the handcuffs! :o

I can't really complain about my wife (note that I didn't say women-that's a different matter entirely  :P ). She annoys/baffles me on occassion, but I'm sure that I more than repay the favor.  ;D

porcupine kate

Let's see about Bill.
After 13 years I can't complain.  We have been through so much and get along so well that I'll gladly put up with his distaste for washing dishes.  Seriously I wouldn't have so much fun and happiness if he wasn't in my life.

Somehow that doesn't sound quite right.

My thoughts on women and they view money comes from selling expensive jewelry for years.  High ticket items brings out the best and worst in people.

In terms of managing money there are those who are better at than the spouse.  The spouse in this case usually knows this and goes along happily for the most part. (kicking and screaming if he has a spending problem)

There are also women who feel insecure about money in general and want control.  The fear of being a bag lady, catching him spending on other women or some other fear is in the back of their minds.  They have a fit if he does something with his money that he earned if she doesn't know about.

Don't forget the classic gold digger.  They want control of your money so they don't have to earn/spend any of there own.  These should be avoided at all costs.

Almost just as scary are the women who want nothing to do with the family finaces and are surprised when they are single and broke at age 50. 

The best couples both have a strong ability to handle money and consult each other on big things like spending, saving, and investing money.   The guy who writes the Millionare next door series has some great research on families and money.  It makes for an interesting read.
