Great Reasons To Be A Guy...

Phone Conversations are over in 30 seconds flat.

You know stuff about tanks.

A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase.

You can open all your own jars.

Dry cleaners and hair cutters don't rob you blind.

You can go to the bathroom without a support group.

You can leave the motel bed unmade.

You can kill your own food.

You get extra credit for the slightest act of
thoughtfulness.

Wedding plans take care of themselves.

If someone forgets to invite you to something, he or she can still be your friend.

Your underwear is $10 for a three-pack.

If you are 34 and single, nobody notices.

Everything on your face stays its original
color.

YOu can quietly enjoy a car ride from the passenger's seat.

Three pairs of shoes are more than enough.

You don't have to clean if the meter reader is
coming.

Car mechanics tell you the truth.

You can quietly watch a game with your buddy
for hours without ever thinking: "He must be mad
at me."

Gray hair and wrinkles only add character.

Wedding dress - $2,000. Tuxedo rental - 75
bucks.

You can drop by to see a friend without bringing a little gift.

If another guy shows up at the party in the
same outfit, you just might become lifelong friends.

Your pals will never trap you with: "So, notice anything different?"

You are not expected to know the names of more
than five colors.

You know which way to turn a nut on a bolt.

You almost never have strap problems in public.

You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes.

The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades.

You don't have to shave below your neck.

Gas (at either end) is cool.

Your belly usually hides your big hips.

One wallet and one pair of shoes, one color,
all seasons.

Tell me about it. The other day I was at Victoria's Secret, and they were having a sale on their panties. Buy 2, get 2 free. But they're $20 a pair, so for $40 I could get 4 pairs. I'm simply too cheap for that.

But, honestly, I'd hate to be a man. They're just way too hung up on sex and certain parts of their anatomy. (Sorry guys.)

Guys definitly get a lot of breaks, but you know, I'd never trade places for anything in the world. I like being a girl. I like the pretty clothes, the skirts, shoes, hair accessories...etc. (it's too strange to call myself a 'woman'
)

WE'RE hung up on it??? Cripes,it's all you women think of...size. Ballet wouldn't be near as popular if the guys didn't wear those revealing tights. How come a guy can walk around for hours with his fly undone among a group of guys without anybody noticing?? You females notice right off. Every time your're mad at us you work genitalia in there somewheres.

Can't speak for anyone but myself, but I could care less about size. That's the least important thing in a relationship as far as I'm concerned. And I can say that none of my close girlfriends are hung up either. I can't think of one conversation that centered around that. It would be more about how the guy handles whatever they have.

I can say, as a fairly large busted woman, I've had to direct more than a couple guys eyes back up to my face when they were talking to me. And no I wasn't scantily clad. I know that you're (general you) gonna look, just don't let me catch you. thank you and goodnight.

P.S.
less face it, there are people of both gender who are caught up more in the phyical aspect of the opposite sex than others, but I don't think either group as a whole are a superficial bunch. There are just a few tactless on each side.

KF - I'm coming from the perspective of a wife who's trying to get her husband to get a vasectomy, and he's afraid of anyone going near him there with a scapel. I wasn't trying to offend you, just making a joke.

You can quietly enjoy a car ride from the passenger's seat.

This is not true for my husband. He is the worst passenger, he absolutely drives me crazy sometimes when I'm driving. He is constantly saying "get over now" or "go now" and the invisible brake on his side is constantly being used while I'm driving. Sometimes I get so mad at him I make him drive!

He also won't wear his seatbelt and nothing that I say or do has made him "see the light"

OMG - my hubby is the same. I think that they can quietly enjoy a car ride from the passenger seat when another male is driver. You should hear the comments he makes about women drivers!

Yep, I drove the car on a family errand last night because himself was just too tired, and he spent the whole trip telling me when to change lanes and what lane to get in. I happen to hate my car, it's quite large, so I don't just change lanes on a whim either but he had no sympathy for the car in my blind spot. It wouldn't have been so bad, but I've driven to this place before so I needed directions, but I would much rather have had him say "Take highway 35" then "now get in this lane, now get in that lane, pass this guy, go around that truck". What a noodge!

He also is a clothes horse and has at least 4 belts, 6 watches and a dozen pairs of shoes. Go figure . . .

Hahaha! Ady, those were great!! Except my hubby's phone conversations are not over in 30 seconds...he talks longer on the phone to his buddies than I do to mine!!! He talks forever to them, but it's like they don't really have much to say, just mumbling, and agreeing....Drives me nuts! :LOL:

I know! He's not going to tell you what they talked about, so he should at least talk loud enough for you to eavesdrop! lol If I didn't overhear phone conversations, there are whole sections of hubby's life I wouldn't know anything about because he just never talks about stuff!
