Yeah, baby… trust meeee! ….. I’m taking precautions

Trust me..... please!
Have you heard that one?

How many guys have become a daddy on the word of someone who either didn’t care or planned for someone else paying for 23 years of child support?

Get this concept… male contraception. Now, we’re giving guys the opportunity to lie, too!

In LiveScience.com , a person wrote an article to help men with contraception… unfortunately, the author was a woman …. and that seems like a conflict of interest to me. 

Hmmmm…. It’s like listening to a bunch of women talk about how much easier having a vasectomy is rather than having one’s tubes tide. Riiiiiight! The “V” word is too close to the infamous “C” word… and the only side effect is that they guy gains enough weight to earn a parking place at the super market. Oh… you didn’t know that?

Well, it may all sound like a good deal for women who would like to be free of  responsibility… but it is important to remember, ladies, when all is said and done… the guy goes home and he’s never pregnant.

Sleeping in the Nude … and other foolish things

Woman Sleping in the NudeIn a recent study, Gerhard Kloesh and his buddies at the University of Vienna reported that sharing your bed — if you are a male — could actually make you stupid.  In reporting this critical ground breaking discovery the NEW SCIENTIST reports:

“while men thought they slept better with a partner, and women believed they didn’t, actually both sexes had more disturbed sleep… lack of sleep … reduced their (men) ability to perform simple cognitive tests the next day.”

Hmmm… why are we listening to these guys? The population of Austria is going down not up anyway…

Another article chronicles the combative life of couples who sleep together in one bed (gasp!) and spoon, snore, sheet steal and even sleep in the nude! One couple even slept on separate floors, maybe they are taking a few lessons from the Austrians here.

Sooo, what do the bastions of pure feminine knowledge tell us about men and women sleeping together? Well, dear Abby takes the firm position that it is okay to sleep in the nude and it’s fine if you don’t want to…. she can really handle the tough questions! Shhhhheeeesh! I did find an interesting blog of some gal in Boston, which… I think is near Vienna. She gives her 10 reasons women have for not sleeping in the nude. I think 10 cats go with those 10 reasons.

So, ‘Dear Dad’ needs to offer his 10 reasons women should sleep in the nude:

1) SLEEPING IN THE NUDE PROMOTES WORLD PEACE!

I thought that liberal women may go for this one… I mean… it couldn’t hurt.

2) YOU WILL ALWAYS KNOW WHERE YOUR PARTNER IS!

Most male ‘partners’ will stand ready with a blanket in case of fire, earthquake, congressional election or any other natural disaster. Motivated partners are extra attentive.

3) YOU WILL MAKE YOUR PARTNER HAPPY!

I have yet to hear anyone say,”oh my god, can you believe it? ….She comes to bed nude every night!”… hmmmm… I think I did hear someone say that once….. but it was in Austria…. or in Harvard Square or at a Kerry rally.

4) EVER WAKE UP WITH AN IDEA AND NO SCRATCH PADS?

A simple magic marker on the night stand is all you need. Now what can we write on?

5) SPOONING BECOMES A CONTACT SPORT

enough said

6) WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS NOW…. IS LOVE, SWEET LOVE…

I think the Beatles said something like that and collectively, they have a lot of kids.

7) CONSERVATIVES ARE HAVING MORE BABIES THAN LIBERALS

They also don’t live in Boston or Austria…. and they don’t sleep with their cats.

8) VICTORIA’S REAL SECRET….

is the clothes never made it into bed

9) NIGHT CLOTHES ARE JUST PLAIN WEIRD

Have you ever seen the stuff people wear when they are running out of their homes at night because of an earthquake or something? Running out nude or in a blanket would be far less funny and far more memorable.

10) LIFE IS WORTH LIVING…..

 

Well, I hope you enjoyed my little ramble …maybe, someone in Boston can tell me if they shower in the nude?….. see you next time….

Dear Dad presents: Hints to make your hubby happy!

the Good Wife from Good HousekeepingSomeone — who happens to be someone I love — forwarded an article posted on an internet site for unhappy academics & losers. (was that over the top — I can’t really tell?) 

You will first notice that the linked article — which first appeared in a 1955 Good Housekeeping Magazine — is full of underlining and unspoken feminist commentary. The article was entitled “The good wife’s guide.”

Rather than provide a critique on the article, which seems rather quaint by today’s standards, I will comment on the underlined passages by our feminist authority.

1)…”catering to his comfort will provide you with immense personal satisfaction.”

Hmmm…. on the flip side, I don’t think there is a guy on the planet who doesn’t understand the saying,’ you know… you can’t be happy, UNLESS, she is happy!”

So, what is she saying? “Catering” to someone is degrading? Somehow, I visualize this woman as hopelessly single with 12 cats. (HINT: she is a Psych Professor — so she’s half way there)

2) …”show sincerity in your desire to please him.”

Where’s she been? This is the oldest lesson on the planet. Hey, when I have daughters sitting on my lap, feeding me chocolate chips cookies and telling me they looOoove me!… I know where this is going. I just say,”hun, what can I do to make your life better?” Cash works good and they’re on their way. Actually, my girls don’t have to work even that hard…. and my wife even less.

As for pleasing someone you care about, I can’t see anything wrong with that.

3) …”remember his topics of conversation are more important than yours.”

Well, everyone gets their turn in a fair world.

 Fortunately for me, I married someone who likes to talk about the Superbowl and not the Oscars… but if she did, I’d probably listen and be ‘in a happy place.’ Continue reading “Dear Dad presents: Hints to make your hubby happy!”

Can a couple be honest with each other? … Can you both take it?

Pregnant Angie with childAdvice from Women is just that and why do we expect any more than that? 

Today, I was reading an advice column about a woman who had an ‘active social life’ ; however, now, she is attracted to a man with no or little past experience. They have discussed what went on before they got together and she has been somewhat forthcoming… but incomplete. Here lies the understandable conflict. 

The female advice provider was basically taking the position that it is ‘none of his business’ regardless of how many ‘notches are on her belt.’ The ‘it’s his problem’ is a very typical comment by women of men as it absolves them of any responsibility in being open and honest. (It’s funny how some women who profess the need to be with men who will talk/listen to them… can suddenly become silent on subjects in which they lack self confidence, have guilt or fear rejection.)
