I dunno about most women, but apparently what my wife wants is more closet space.

OK - here's what I want (at least for today):

A man who can fix a few things around the house, and won't muck it up too bad.

A man who will wash and vacuum my car out once in a while.

A man I can have a meaningful conversation with.

A man who can genuienly make me laugh.

A man who doesn't try to impress me with "things". Cars, toys, etc. don't do much for me.

A man who makes me feel special by doing little things, like washing my car and changing the light bulb that's been out for a couple weeks. I promise to appreciate those little things.

The occassional bouquet of flowers from the super market would also be nice. :) I don't need much, just want to feel special.

And in turn, Smiley girl, for those small things, would you consider letting him have a harem?

You single?

He can have a harem if I can! :)
Smiley girl

Maybe you and he could share one. It's more economical that way.

You know Phaedrus, I'm kidding about the harem. I'm a one-man kind of girl, my man better be a one woman kind of guy.

Although we could share showers, saves water. Still economical.
Smiley girl
12:07:25 PM

So what women really want is to save water?
bitpusher
12:09:13 PM
9/19/02

Yeah, sure, we'll go with that.
Smiley girl
12:11:55 PM

Get your mind out of the gutter
I shower with my hubby everyday to save time not water. both of us have to be out of the house by 7:30am.

Sure beats having to come home at lunchtime...

Wow that shouldn't be too hard. One good way is to put a brick in your toilet tank. A paver works best, but one of those bricks with holes in it will do.

I think what Smiley Girl really wants is a clean car, LOL

Hey Bit, does that 'nice girl from Prague' know how to make Pilsner?

So, if I'm understanding this, the Harem thing is out, then?
Phaedrus
12:26:10 PM
9/19/02

What do guys want?
Yes, Phaedrus, the harem is out, if you're talking to me.

I've had other guy friends mention harems. Is it a fantasy for men? To have your choice of women? What's the deal?

Yeah, Smiley. Sort of like a buffet.

Treebait, I'm guessing at this point HPM knows you want some sleep. No mind reading required. :)
Smiley girl
12:39:22 PM

I don't fantasize about a harem.


Damn things are expensive.

Tilt, I don't think she does, but the last time they were over there, they had some good Czech pilsner. He's not a beer drinker, and he liked it.

I don't need much, just want to feel special."

That sure makes it easy. Now if we could guess what feels special this week we would have the answer. You can be sure what is special this week is annoying next week.

I think men and women make things too complicated. Men should do small things for women. Women should appreciate the effort men put into doing those small things.

I'm a late comer to this conversation . . .

but whenever I bring in fresh grown CUCUMBERS from the garden . . .the women sure do flock around.

I was was gonna jump to conclusions . . .I'd have to say women just want a cuke.

Maple Leaf, bude = bootie



Bacpac! Are you still pining for me?! ;o)

Actually, bacpac, it's not about reading minds. It's about LISTENING. If you listen to anyone, not just women, you learn what is important to them and you will know what kind of responses they are seeking. Also, when a girlfriend offers the second girlfriend a glass of wine, but the second girlfriend wanted Ben and Jerry's, the first girlfriend doesn't start whining how the second is never satisified and how if the latter was offered the second girlfriend would have wanted the former, etc. The girlfriend would say, "I've got that, too!" and she'd get that carton of icecream and two spoons. It's about listening, caring and sharing. Go with the flow, brother!

Oh, and bacpac, I don't want a glass of wine. I WANT A TRUCK!!

Years ago, a female friend of mine told me that women are looking for security. She didn't elaborate on what she meant, but I just assumed that it meant money.

There's no such thing as security. People seeking security should instead seek faith.
sunshine

That sounds much more logical to me than security.

Apparently, in Britain anyway, they still want men to be gentlemen.
