(with thanks, i think, lol.to "seaqueen".) (please note.obviously the work of a woman or , god help us all,a "metero-sexual") (.to those of you in yer 50's,.that's "new-speak" for a bloke with a handshake like a wet fish ).
_____________________________ Because I'm a man, when I lock my keys in the car, I will fiddle with a coat hanger long after hypothermia has set in. Calling the AAis not an option.I WILL win. ______________________________- ___
Because I'm a man , when the car isn't running very well, I will open the bonnet and stare at the engine as if I know what I'm looking at.If another man shows up, one of us will say to the other, 'I used to be able to fix these things, but now with all these computers and everything, I wouldn't know where to start.'We will then drink a couple of beers and break wind, as a form of holy communion. ______________________________- ____
Because I'm a man, when I catch a cold, I need someone to bring me soup and take care of me tenderly while I lie in bed and moan.You're a woman.You never get as sick as I do, so for you, this is no problem. ______________________________- ____
Because I'm a man, I can be relied upon to purchase basic groceries at the store, like beer, milk or bread.I cannot be expected to find exotic items like 'cumin' or 'tofu.'For all I know, these are the same thing. ______________________________- ______
Because I'm a man, when one of our appliances stops working, I will insist on taking it apart, despite evidence that this will just cost me twice as much once the repair person gets here and has to put it back together. ______________________________- ____
Because I'm a man, I must hold the television remote control in my hand while I watch TV.If the thing has been misplaced, I may miss a whole show looking for it.though one time I was able to survive by holding a calculator. ( applies to engineers mainly). ______________________________- ______
Because I'm a man, there is no need to ask me what I'm thinking about.The true answer is always either sex, cars, sex, sports or sex.I have to make up something else when you ask, so don't ask. ______________________________- ______
Because I'm a man, I do not want to visit your mother, or have your mother come visit us, or talk to her when she calls, or think about her any more than I have to.Whatever you got her for Mother's Day is okay;I don't need to see it. And don't forget to pick up something for my mother, too. ______________________________- _____
Because I'm a man, you don't have to ask me if I liked the movie.Chances are, if you're crying at the end of it, I didn't .and if you are feeling amorous afterwards.then I will certainly at least remember the name and recommend it to others. ______________________________- ____
Because I'm a man, I think what you're wearing is fine.I thought what you were wearing five minutes ago was fine, too.Either pair of shoes is fine.With the belt or without it, looks fine.Your hair is fine.You look fine.Can we just go now! ______________________________- _______
Because I'm a man, and this is, after all, the year 2011, I will share equally in the housework.You just do the laundry, the cooking, the cleaning, the vacuuming, and the dishes, and I'll do the rest. Like wandering around in the garden with a beer wondering what to do. ______________________________- _________________ This has been a public service message for women to better understand men

There are documented instances of Men survivng entire movies without the remote. .especially romantic comedies, & historic period costume dramas, .to be fair, being asleep is a technical fail, .but still counts, i reckon. :)

Because I am a man, even if you think your bum looks big in those jeans, I think you should be thankful there is nothing wrong with your eyesight.
