This thread is for both sexes to vent, discuss, poke fun of, all of the idiosyncrasies of the opposite sex. For example.....
My wife bought Egyptian cotton towels for the bathrooms. A couple things wrong with this.... one... they cost more than a car payment, and 2 i got in trouble for using them!!!! she told me they were for decoration!!! FOR WHO I ASK?!????!?!?! we don't entertain!!!! i hate having company over!!!
one of my favorites is the ******** "soap" dispenser on the bathroom sink.......we have to buy a nice dispenser, nice soap, but WE can't use it.......... another one is the fact that we always have to make our bed....i'm fine if we do that in the morning after we get out of it, or if we forget and company's coming over, but she insists on making it every night......even if we've forgotten to do it during the day and we're about to lay down for the night..........drives me crazy, what's the point in making a bed you're about to lie down in?

post up your conundrums about the opposite sex.
Guilty. Only it was guest sheets.
Please explain specialty shoes to me. Why do men need the latest sneakers for tennis, softball, football, basketball, running and of course a nice pair of everyday sneakers and 2 ratty pairs for yard work? And why exactly do you need 4 pairs of flip flops (that also have separate designated uses)? And why is it that you will drive all over town for the perfect golf shoe, but you'll wear 10 year old shoes that have been re-soled twice to church every Sunday before some woman drags/nags you to the store to replace them? I just want to know.
Ok... here's a classic. Does the toilet paper roll go in with the end coming out over the top, or from underneath? My wife and I have been having this battle for the 14 years we've been married. And when the topic has come up, the women have always sided with her, that it should be from the bottom, while the men are on the top side with me. I absolutely hate that... you can't find the end when it's on the bottom. And if that is the right way, then why do all hotels, and maid services, do it over the top, folded to a cute little point?...
If we forget to put the toilet seat and cover down.... watch out!
There's two towels hanging on the over handle... one's for hands, one's for drying the dishes, etc.
Sometimes me and the kid forget... then all heck breaks loose because us guys should always
remember which towel is for what! It's amazing to me how she has us so well trained...
once we get in a load of trouble!

Are you kidding me? It should be over the top. Honestly, when you started this post, I thought you were going to say that your wife insists on it that way since women are usually right. I've been trained well, haven't I? In this case, I would say your wife is clearly wrong.

Here is a female who agrees with me.
I find it amusing that women never have anything to wear despite having a closet (or several) full of clothes. Or they have to wear a certain outfit but can't find it because they have 6 closets, clothes at the cleaners, in the hamper, in the backseat of the car, in the suitcase, etc. Can they wear something else? No.
My wife makes dinner most of the time, its not that i require or expect her too, she just always does. I make dinner about twice a week she does it the rest of the time. So last night i call on the phone on the way home and say "hey honey, whats for dinner??" KABOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!! it was a fair question right?!!!!??!

Dude, it's always, "Honey, what are we doing for dinner tonight?"
(This coming from a man who can't keep a relationship going for longer than 6 years... I know.)
So.... I'm outside grilling and she throws a cup of water on me as a joke.... No problem. I rig up the kitchen faucet hose with a rubber band so it sprays her when she turns the water on, and I GET IN TROUBLE????

There is a company that manufactures a dual roll (side by side) dispenser so you could each have a roll with your preference....
My wife has to "get ready" for EVERYTHING!!! To go to bed, to go out to eat, to watch tv, to take a shower. I'm not kidding. Last night she was in the bathroom for 20 minutes GETTING READY to take a shower........ WHAT DOES THIS ENTAIL I ASK!!!!!!!!?????
