SWMBO

I was always under the impression that people just use phrases like that as an easy way of getting out of something that they don't really want to do whilst still giving the impression that it's out of their control and they would if it was up to them.

Are blokes *really* that much under the thumb?
 
I hate all the phrases of "She who must be obeyed" and "Her indoors" - guys that use them are usually a bit spineless and bend to her every whim or are dating a woman that expects it all on a platter and it all her way. The phrases themselves are so derogatory as well.

Me and my girlfriend never refer to each other with odd terms like that, and she doesn't tell me how to spend my money, or what I can do and vice versa - we ask each others opinions on things but both know we are clever enough with money and other things not to act like retards and muck it up for both of us.

Same goes for girls that freak out in a huff when you go to see your mates for an evening - even though you spent most the week with them. Really irritates me when friends cave and you end up not seeing them for weeks/months because of "SWMBO". Get a backbone, or get a girlfriend/boyfriend who understands that you don't need to be with them 24/7 for it to count as a "relationship".

Had an ex exactly like that who freaked when I went out with friends and didn't invite her - she screamed bloody murder once when I went to "curry and poker night" and didn't invite her, and after pointing out "you hate curry and hate/don't now how to play poker - what's the issue? We went out the night before and the night before last."

Reply - "That's not the point! I barely see you!". :rolleyes:

Clingy odd women FTL! Sorry rant over, I just get annoyed by guys (and girls! They do it too!) that get so under the thumb they can't do anything without running it by your partner and everything turns from "I am off out tonight with X and Y for a pint/whatever" to "Can I go out tonight with X and Y?".

SWMBO made me get a new 40" Telly, she forced me to get a new unit for the telly she "recommended" a Blu-Ray player and a new amp as the old one did not have HDMI. She agreed that the Unit had to be big enough to store the Amp inside, she insisted on new rear speakers.

She made me wire up the house using Cat5e cable because wireless was "Just not up to the Job", she wants a media PC and a notebook. :(

'Our peg' or 'our lass' is as good as it gets for her. She doesn't like either, obviously, else they'd change :D
 
I call my wife "fat head"! :D

A relationship is a compromise not one sided. I agree with the state of the male pysche. Some men just need to grow a pair.
 
Handbags are for storing manly equipment and being carried by the woman if pockets are full of gadgets, keys and cash.
 
As above, that is perfectly acceptable.

Infact section B, subsection 12, paragraph 4b of the Man Manual specifically encourages such practise.
 
phew, /wipes forehead. Fought I was going to have to live a life knowing I have a mangina for a minute there.
 
Tefal is correct, the initial use of female persons handbag for storage of male paraphenalia is quite accpetable, but the use of THAT word means your membership is revoked.

Nowt wrong with a little post-shave moisturising. I do, but I only shave twice a week at the moment and use Feather blades on my awesome Merkur razor. Moisturising helps stop the bleeding. :D

Two things. Moisturising is gay and shaving only twice a week means you must have the testosterone of a pubescent girl.

Hand in your man card or go out and buy some power tools. :p
