Re: Why can't a woman be reasonable and practical-like a man
"Why can't a woman be reasonable and practical ?"
Because then they'd be blokes ! And that means the human race would then have a slight problem.
It is part of our destinies (as blokes) to never fully comprehend or understand the functioning of the female species. Steven Hawkings, arguably one of the cleverest Men to grace this World, would also be reduced to babbling insignificance if asked to explain Women ! It will ever be our lot to live on cold shoulder & hot tongue, or as is usually the case put our proverbial size 10's once again into our mouths regardless of "our well thought out plans/comments"
Put simply, do you know how your Tele works ? No ? Me neither, but if I press the right buttons I get enjoyment & a pleasant passing of the time so lets leave it at that shall we ? Still if only we could at least work out some kind of Mute button !

Why not try a staple gun, that should stitch her gob up.
If women haven't learnt to talk sense by the time they are 21,
their tongues should be surgically removed.

Trouble with that theory is I know how the tele works, 1st one I made had 18 valves in it.
No one can say how the mind of a woman works, even the owner of its brain can't help, cause they dont know there own mind from one day to another, it runs in 28 day cycles, which is the lunar cycle, thats why we call them lunatics.

Re: Why can't a woman be reasonable and practical-like a man
Its best explained by a joke i once heard >There is a man walking on a beach when he sees an object shining half buried in the sand he gives it a kick and picks it up , whilst rubbing it to get the sand off a genie pops out and says to him "for releasing me you can have one wish "the man thinks for a moment and says to the genie "can you make me a motorway to Australia to see my brother i am terrified of flying and sailing?" the genie looks at the man and says "have you any idea of the resources that would take it would be beyond even my powers think of something else" the man ponders for a moment and gets a brain wave "can you make me understand woman he exclaims with a smile at his request ". The genie turns to the man and says "do you want a two lane motorway or just a single lane one"....

Re: Why can't a woman be reasonable and practical-like a man
I think what Dave says is partially right....with a woman if you press the right buttons then you do get a pleasant passing of time...same as with the TV.
All you chaps really need to know is that, women, in the main(and I know I am generalising here) want to be made to feel the most important person in your life.
What most of us actually get is being treated like wallpaper(and no I am not whinging here, just making an observation - sorry Kate).
The things we do, go unrecognised until, that is, we aren't there to do them.
So if you can get to grips with simply making the lady in your life feel like she is the only thing you care about, then you should have a peaceful and happy existence(most of the time).

I should say that maybe you didn't get it quite right, but perhaps it was the women who wanted more.
They say that the exception tests the rule, you were blooming unlucky to get two 'testers' on the run.
My advice to you would be...'don't be tempted to play cards or gamble on the horses'

Oh the third attempt was okay, well we never got married but we've a couple now for 21 years and never had a cross word really, oh and I've never backed horses but was a mean poker player in my younger days

Re: Why can't a woman be reasonable and practical-like a man
I think it is a man's duty to die first.
This enables a woman to devote time to herself for the first time in her life.
Companionship often is a pleasant experience, but solitude and self reliance are essential life enhancing experiences too.
