Wow! I didn't know there was a ladies forum. I better start looking around here a bit. I wonder if I can join them, being Mr. Mom and all.![]()
That's MY title, I hereby challenge you to a competition to see who can bake the best cake, while mending a mangled child's coat the most un-obviously, then change a tire & rebuild drum breaks the fastest only to finish the event by singing a fussy child to sleep the most patiently. Now That's what I call a Triathlon! I warn you, I am a registered volunteer with the Girl Scouts!
see belowI think there should be one. There's no good reason for there not to be.
This reply is a two-fer! Guys don't need one because *typically* when men talk to other men without the presence of ladies, the conversation either degrades to being mere grunts that represents such phrases as , "Pass me the 9/16's and that half clean rag so I can staunch the wound long enough to finish this, oh and did you see last night's Cake Boss marathon?" or we de-evolve into a pubescent state where we either pick fights or talk about girls in an offensive manner.Huh, I am surprised. I wonder what you would speak about if we couldn't see?
Guys benefit more from having to talk In The Presence Of Ladies vs. talking behind a gender veil. We DO NOT talk to each other in the bathroom (Manrule 873-628). Having women around, or even the possibility of women stumbling in on our conversations about rebuilding carburetors and what kind of deck stain to use not only encourages us fellas to behave in a more Godly manner (and what we practice become what we do), it also encourages us to open up more. It's like the crying in a movie thing... If a dude cries in a movie and the gal next to him makes it ok by being impressed that he is man enough to cry, then maybe the dude that saw this but has never tried it can then be more in touch with his own emotions without self emasculating and society is then better off for it. However, if it's just dudes watching the movie and one of them cries, odds are somebody's gonna be thinking he's a nancy and it just might get said out loud.
