I am glad you finally have spelled out a good role for women. After that we can go operate lawn equipment and run a few welding beads. What do you feel about chipping my slag? That also could be a woman's job but I actually do not mind doing the clean up there. I like to use the power brush in 4" grinder, do my share of the cleaning.

Nothing like say running a bit of 1/8" 7018 and just lay it down @ 120 amps. I will even breathe your fumes and do the tack fit up. Maybe a few bumper hitches to warm up.

Then just for kicks to close out the night we could change a few tires just to keep in practice. I am glad you are finally getting constructive.

None of that other weird stuff you like to come out with either. just keep it basic and color between the lines. Can we use your oven to store the rods?

Then we can talk some man talk like how you did your last concrete pour. I ain't shaving my legs either. Bout time some girl started talking about Real Man Stuff. Been way to much of that being sensitive stuff.

A smart woman should have AAA, call them and let them do the work for you...

There is no shame in not being able to or not wanting to or not have the time to do something...just find the person to do it for you...

I used to care for my lawn myself, when I said real men can operate all that lawn stuff, I have that stuff and used to do it all myself...but I don't anymore...I pay someone, he is very reasonable and I don't have to aggravate my asthma in the process.

Thanks, blue And a real man can also have bad days where he gets all oversensitive and snippy because he takes things personally when he shouldn't

Can you men imagine how we take offense to them coming from you??

Like a woman should have a meal on the table, with a smile on her face, after dinner she should fall over on her back with her legs apart??

This is of course only an example...I'm certainly not saying all men think that...
Exactly! Just look at that thread (I think its called "A Question for the Guys") in which many men describe their idea woman. Maybe many of us take offense to that. At least we are describing skills that can be learned. How does a woman make herself taller or more beautiful? I guess we could go the drastic route by having that boob job done.

Yea, I saw that thread and of the men who said things like that, trust me, they don't care that we are offended, they feel entitled to those things...whats funny is the very men who are saying it, don't have much to recommend themselves...
