My answers...

#3) More and more these days, so does the woman's.

#12) ...But you probably shouldn't (unless you look like Tom Cruise  ;D ).

#22) ...And nobody wants to see you wearing it.  Attractiveness requires $$

#24) So can I, I like to watch the scenery (even in the city).

#25)  I think so too, but then, I didn't invent that stupid "no sneakers or flats" office dress code that 85% of women must comply with in order to keep the job. (And if I could afford to stay home and "play house" I would.  It takes two paychecks to make the rent in my neck of the woods.)


#37)  Yuck!!!!!  Diseases!!!!


edited for spelling errors and I forgot #37.  Oops.

Thank you for that! Maybe it would be an idea for someone to hit back from a womans perspective!!!!

I'll take a crack at this...

1. Your backside is never a factor in a job interview. Fitting your gut behind a desk might be, however.

2. Your orgasms are real. Always. But you only get one.

3. Your last name stays put. And it's up to your sperm to make sure it carries on. No pressure, but dad's getting awfully feeble...

4. The garage is all yours. The car is all hers.

5. Wedding plans take care of themselves. Wedding rings don't. (Big goes with everything, little goes with nothing. You can tell the size of a guy's "income" by the size of the rock on his gal's hand, don't ya know.)

6. You never feel compelled to stop a friend from having an elicit affair. And you'll be clueless should your wife decide to have one as well.

7. Car mechanics tell you the truth. But you can't talk your way out of a traffic ticket.

8. You don't give a hoot if no one notices your new haircut. Because if it's not bad, it's probably boring.

9. Hot wax never comes near your pubic area. But it should probably come near your back at some point.

10. Same work .. more pay. Shorter life span, so actually, less work.

11. Wrinkles-add character. Just not in a Speedo.

12. You don't have to leave the room to make emergency crotch adjustments. Of course, single bills don't usually show up down there either...

13. Wedding Dress $2000; Tux rental $100. And this is bad because?

14. If you retain water, it's in a canteen. If you're grumpy or sad, you don't have an excuse that gets you chocolate.

15. People never glance at your chest when you're talking to them.  Unless you need a bra too, and then it's really not a good thing.

16. New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet. But you can't nonchalantly grow three inches taller either.

17. One mood, ALL the time. Befuddled.

18. Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds. And you don't remember a single thing that was said.

19. A five-day vacation requires only 1 suitcase. And a credit card to replace everything you forgot.

20. You can open all your own jars. To sniff them to see if the contents are still edible seventeen days past the "sell-by" date.

21.You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness, but wouldn't it be nice if getting laid weren't extra?

22. Your underwear is $10 for a three-pack. Women can afford to invest in ours because we don't get skid marks.

23. If you are 34 and single, nobody notices. They notice how bald you're getting instead.

24. You can quietly enjoy a car ride from the passenger's seat. Unless some SOB cuts you off.

25. Three pairs of shoes are more than enough. Frequently, so are three pairs of socks.

26. You can quietly watch a game with your buddy for hours without ever thinking "He must be mad at me." You will beat him into a bloody pulp for the last brewski, however.

27. No maxi-pads. (Yeah, well all the maxi's in the world will never take away how hilarious a thirteen year-old with a badly-timed hard-on is. Remember slow dancing? How about the neighborhood pool? Illustrating math problems at the chalk board?)

28. If another guy shows up at the party in the same outfit, you just might become lifelong friends. Unless he's gay, then the shirt gets burned 'cause you're no... you know.

29. You are not expected to know the names of more than five colors. Or even be able to tell them apart.

30. You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt. You do have to stop and think when you've bolted your nuts, however.

31. You are unable to see wrinkles in clothes. And stains, and food, and hairballs...

32. The same hair style lasts for years, maybe decades. It's called the "comb-over".

33. Your belly usually hides your big hips. And physics students can see how a wave moves without going to the local duck pond.

34. One wallet and one pair of shoes, one color, all seasons. Women don't accessorize with things that ruin the lines of our jeans.

35. You can "do" your nails with a pocket knife. Women can pay other women to rub us legally.

36. Christmas shopping can be done for 25 relatives, on December 24th, in 15 minutes. By asking, "Honey, what did we get for..."

37. The world is your urinal. Just always check for electric fences and changes in the wind direction.
