    Wink Are you a manly man or a girly man?

    When I was married my wife wanted a dish washer. I told her they were attached to her wrists.
    A member just replied to a thread with the above quote as part of the reply! I have always been under the impression that men don't speak to their ladies this way any more, that is except me. Well, seeing that we have a member who is willing to say such things to his wife without fear of consequences lifted my heart about men in general.
    This inspired me to start a poll!

    Do you speak your mind with your significant other?

    Well, do you, punk?

    +1. I am more of the "quiet man" school with my wife and children, and in general. That way, when I say something, it is heard.

    I say stuff like that to her in jest, but definitely not seriously. She would punch me in my face, and IMO, rightfully so. I treat her with respect, which is, in my opinion, manly of me. So I guess I'm a manly man.

    I have learned never to disregard consequence so I frequently ask, "what answer do you want from me"? and think twice about how I'll speak. She's aware of it and it sometimes infuriates her, but I keep up. The women in this family are a force to be reckoned with!

    I answered "Yes, but I still lose my balls" because she can find ample opportunity to give it right back to me. I win/lose some, she wins/lose some. What can ya' do? I'm happy and that's what's important.

    She pretty much is a spoiled princess and gets anything she wants....
    She puts up a great argument and can get her way most of the time...

    Right up until I say, "Enough"..... then I rule, and it is my way period...

    This has worked for the last 17 1/2 years so yeah I am a Manly Man when needed...
