    Ladies in the gents room?

    This thread reminds me my of school years. The girls were constantly giving us names for (only the suspicion of) peeking in their showers. But of course, they did the same, and kept swearing that they did it just for fun, while we did it 'cause we were vicious...

    Ah, that sweet bad faith...I've come to love it, actually. It makes women seem human.

    Since when has getting drunk and being silly been a mark of self-respect?

    I think it is only logical to blame teenagers for teenage pregnancies as no one else is involved in the process.

    That's why we blokes, mere human, feel the need, time to time, to retreat from you Elysean Heights to...well, get drunk to the bone, swear, shout, and blast the TV when our team loses.

    I didn't say it was a mark of self respect, but the occasional act in and of itself does not necissarily mean a woman has no self respect

    I'm pretty sure I was wearing a corset the first time I went to vote when I was 18 in the 2004 Presidential elections. But maybe my vote didn't count. My guy didn't win

    Let's face it, guys... Even in this supposedly men-only thread, we will end up outnumbered.

    you know, there is actually a scripture in the Bible somewhere, I remember reading it and feeling er, well nevermind. At any rate it says that it is better for a man to live under a leaking roof than with a naggy contentious woman. . well something like that,.
    I have come t see it is better to chatter with the ladies,if chatter one must, and be quite silent in the company of men, unless he actually wishes some conversation.
    It amuses me that I am often complimented as being very wise and intelligent and only because I shut my mouth.
    Men.......................you are more than puzzling. you are.............................

    It must be hard to have a conversation with a man while walking three steps behind him, anyway.

    You read my mind. There is a lack of women in this men's club.

    Whoa!

    What thread have you been reading? We're trying to get rid of them, but neither cigars nor bra sizes has gotten them moving yet.

    I'm sure there's a metaphor for life in this thread somewhere. Probably at Brian's place.

    Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."
