Thread: Are all Women Crazy?

My mom has this tendency whenever she is mad at me to throw things away that remind her of me, or even worse, take all the kids toys she keeps around for my kids and puts them in the attic. My ex-gf used to do something like that - this was years ago but I think she'd throw away pictures. I think it's because they put more emotional association into these things, so that's one way of striking back or telling themselves they are putting you behind them - because if they attack your stuff, it's a big statement becasue they think we associate with them in the same way they do. Whereas guys are like "why waste property - I'm ****ed at her."

Partly true, as both genders can get violent and destroy stuff.

Generally with women, we tend to mainly destroy a man's stuff, since 95% of us can't successfully destroy HIM physically.

With men, (SOME men, not all, of course) there is a tendency to try to destroy the woman herself, physically...because he has the physical capability to do it, being (on the average) bigger and stronger.

Bear in mind I'm generalizing, of course, and there are always plenty of exceptions. (One of the reasons I recently went on "emergency mini-vacation" to South Padre Island, coming back yesterday, was because I was stressed to the point that I lost my temper at husband Scott 3 times in one week...after not having lost it at him for 4 years.

What was really bad was that the very last time I lost it, not only did I yell and cuss him, I came very close to physically shoving him out of my way. In fairness to me, he was dawdling when I asked him to go get me something out of the barn and asking me all about "how come" and "why" when I needed it right away, so I got impatient.)

We have a lot of "role reversal" in our marriage. He is 6 feet tall, weighs about 115 lbs, but is strong for a very skinny man.

I am 5'2", weigh an extremely muscular 175 lbs, have 16.5" biceps, can do 15 full push-ups at age 50, and am generally considered by those who know me to be a real badass. Thus, I have to watch myself with my temper since I could do some real damage...and I don't want trouble.

I'm much calmer now!

[It started with "All in the Family," and I firmly believe it's part of a calculated marketing plan to destroy the family in America. And sadly, it is largely succeeding.]

I'll 100% agree with that.

And I thought I was the only one who thought like this! I am glad I am not alone!!

Take for example Motorcycles. I love Bikes. Any bike will do for me. A nice clear day on an empty road. pure heaven...and I love to ride with no helmet...safe? no. smart? Def not. But I love to do it (no longer sadly)

My other joy comes from jumping in water that I'm sure holds sharks, dragging freshly killed fish a mere 20 feet behind me. Once again just a bit crazy.

But my other half puts up with me...only explanation that I can think of is that she must be a little crazy too!

If she is your benificiary maybe shes not so crazy!

I love this analogy!

This explains why I didn't get married until about 3 weeks before I turned 40. Besides the fact that I'd seen what happened when people picked The Wrong One, it took me a very, very, long time to find the right man who could appreciate all my hand-tooled, after-market customizations on top of a Maserati body & chassis!

OTOH, the "minivan women" can always find a guy and get married at 21...or 18...or even earlier.

AMEN! I just looooved the way my gynecologist glanced down at my chart and then peered over his glasses at me and said, "Well, given your AGE, of course we have to assume you're probably already in peri-menopause (the first step.)" I wanted to pop his smart-mouth ass so bad...!!!

And for us ladies...just wait until our Knights in Shining Armor start getting special "under-skin" armor in the form of artificial knees, hips, etc! I know that for me, it took my athletic ego down several notches...

Yeah, I got that! Bless you, Mark. (I probably should've used the emoticons, like Bruno suggested.)

Bruno--hope you feel better, try a hot toddy (hot water with honey, lemon and bourbon in it.) As far as what you post online, I do see your point, but people do need a place to vent, like Zib is doing. That's what usernames are for, some semblance of privacy.

Sure, you can bust a username with high-tech software...but a casual user like mom, kid, spouse, etc., probably won't know how to do that. And as for me...well, now that I've reached the ripe old age of 50, I just really don't give a good damn what anyone things (not that I ever really did.)

My wife is crazy...






about me

[Edit: I asked my wife, "Are all women crazy?" She replied, "No, not all! That's a silly question, are all men crazy?" haha. I think she has a good point~]

Some like me believe in both. But I dislike the establishment and bureaucracy built around both. This means both sides generally dislike me.
