Taken for a ride

[LovelyLadyLux]

Ok ladies - we've let the boys push out and beat on their chests and do the (ahem) "male thing"." We've now let them all think that 'they've told us' and have now re-established the pecking order.

Don't you all love it when it is so simple and easy to pander to the male mind and ego?

I love it when they profess to wanting to drive the 'scenic' route adding 200+km to the car rather than ask for a direction or look at the map themselves. The poor souls are always so proud of themselves when they finally pull into the right place!

Personally I can read a map 'no problemo' and I fully understand 'why' men always hand the map over to us and they almost always fall for those little right pointing hand gestures whilst we say 'left'.......I do it just to see if they're paying attention whilst driving I should be ashamed to tease and taunt the less abled!

[Horus]

Ok guys, lets just conceed that as usual they have to have the last word even if they can't read a map

[Winged Isis]

@ WI, you are supposed to listen to them and not argue back.

I didn't deign to argue, I just haughtily ignored! There is a difference, as any real lady knows! (Help Keefy, I need a "Hmph!" smilie!!! )

And I'll bet you argue!

[Horus]

And I'll bet you argue!

No I won't!

[LovelyLadyLux]

I wasn't arguing or questioning or trying get the last word I was simply stating a KNOWN FACT that women ARE superior drivers to men

[Winged Isis]

Horus meant arguing with the sat nav, LLL.

[LovelyLadyLux]

Oh Sat Nav wellllllllll - I stand by what I said (Not that the Sat Nav SHOULD get the last word) 'but' WOMEN are SUPERIOR drivers to men

[Grandad]

Women MUST be the best at map reading......did you ever hear a man giving SatNav directions.

[Horus]

True Grandad that's why we end up going down narrow lanes and crossing streams when listening to one.

Brilliant - I'm with you on the toilet roll one - I have managed to get him to take the rolls out of the big packet and put them in the cupboard, but why can't he get them out again when needed. And yes, that one square - just why do they do that - and then it's me having to shout for more loo roll.

@ Horus, like the Ozzy version

[Horus]

Listen up all you ladies, the answer to us leaving the one square is quite simple, it is to REMIND you that the bog roll needs changing. I would have thought that after all these years you would have made that simple connection.

[Kiya]

My son must be learning early, he always leaves the roll with 2-3 squares then gets a new 1 out & leaves it balanced on the radiator just 2 ins from the holder, when I ask him " why do that & not put it on the holder" his reply............" its a womans job".........cheeky sod

[Horus]

That lad is learning fast
