2014 Question of the year

[wanda]

Why on earth do females nag so much?

I have been thinking about it logically and all I can come up with is control. Is it really the end of the world if the dishes are left for 5 extra minutes?

I do admit that I can be bad sometimes, when the mrs nags I tend to tease her until she is about to explode and then I run away

But to keep my sanity while she is nagging at me my mind tends to go for a journey, is it my fault for being a guy who is just blinded by mans greatest weakness, the female? If a male friend nagged me I would argue back maybe even fight and then be friends again but with females ..... is it because we love them too much?


..... help me out here, lets here the opinions, we might actually finally get to understand womanbeings.

I was having a similar conversation with a male friend in the gym only yesterday, his wife is bordering on accusing him of having an affair all because in the run up to Christmas he got a couple of text messages from a female friend and work colleague about her working hours over the Yuletide period. However, his wife told him to stop being stupid when he turned the tables on her and mentioned the invite that she had received from an ex-boyfriend to accompany him on a holiday to Thailand.

Double standards? Nah, just women's logic.

What sanity, Wanda? You've got married! The institute of marriage is effectively a licence to abuse men. The only way to survive is to do things like taking apart the engine of your racer in the kitchen and leaving it there while going with friends paragliding in the Alps. ...and yes, you will have to hire a cleaner.

Why, do you think, men die earlier than their wives? - Because they want to!...

LOL

Maybe my mistake is thinking logically instead of pure emotion.

No, you are actually right. These are the power games. You can't win such a game, by the way, nor end it. The best you can do is to learn to ignore everyday things, dishes for example, even those thrown in your face. This is like the Hundred Years War, one has no chance to see the end of it.

If you think, paragliding may start looking as a viable option, ...even if you are afraid of heights...

Women nag because they have so much more invested in reproduction. A man can plant his seed in thousand women, or none at all, and biologically speaking, he's done. A woman has a long gestation and then a much much longer period of raising the child. All the things women nag about, they do so because it's more important to their survival that these things work out.

The dishes?

Surely if the point is about children it is in her interest to keep him.... so why drive him away?

[AlexB]

One wouldn't be driven away if ...

...spent some time trying to apply logic, but it did not work! Going for a drive now.

... so why drive him away?

Women nag? I must be missing something

There was this guy that actually figured out women. Unfortunately he died laughing before he could tell anyone
