Icon134 0 #2 July 12, 2007 I think listening to others is generally a good thing (male or female) whether I actually heed what they (or anyone else) say is another question all together...

bluepill 0 #4 July 12, 2007 Definitely always listen. But listen like a man. i.e. 1. Monitor incoming signals. 2. Squelch out the background noise (usually 99% of signal) 3. Screen remaining signal for relevancy and priority (e.g. 1. Sex request, 2. Beer available 3. Food ready …etc) 4. Store prioritised signal until appropriate response selected. (Ensuring to maintain blank expression) 5. Once sport or any other current interest is finished, provide response (if you remember). Await further incoming signals…..

And when you didn't think she was right, I'm sure you were just being stubborn and didn't want to admit it. She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lawrocket 3 #11 July 12, 2007 QuoteThey should always listen. They should not always obey. Listen means listen, not follow. Not in wimminspeak!!!! "Listen" means "obey." "You don't listen to me" can be translated as, "I told you to stop snoring but there you are, snoring again. You don't listen to me." Or, "I asked you to please keep the kids quiet while I napped but you don't listen to me. The baby is screaming. I'll take her." Of course, "You aren't listening to me" is another one. "I asked you to please stop drive faster but you aren't listening to me." See the difference? Yes, I heard her but it doesn't mean that I am going to do it. Of course, usually we are hearing what is being said but sometimes take other options. Sometimes we forget the suggestion. Sometimes we simply don't hear. But make no mistake, "Listen to me" means "OBEY" My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
