Oh.

Sorry.

And... I'm not a gal, just a guy who puts himself in other's shoes.

by the way, I am a Queen!

Honestly, for the record, my wife is treated very much as a queen.
She is my wife, whom I love, and is therefore worthy of the pedestal
she lives on.

She has never had to work outside the home.
She does do the laundry.
She does not do the dishes. (I do)
She has no plans of taking the trash out.
She does not mow the lawn.
She does take care of HER dog.
She does an excellent job of keeping our home clean.
She does not bring me drinks as a rule.
I know where the kitchen is and how that stove-thingy works.
She has a nice recliner that she is welcome to sit in and enjoy whenever she wants.

We grocery shop together.
We do most things together.

We have a daughter, who is pretty much my child. Always was.
I am the one who gets her up, I am the one she comes to.
We take her shopping together.

My wife is involved in our decisions. VERY rarely will I overrule her. I don't like
doing that.

My wife seldom crys or complains. I give her no reason to. That is not my job.
It is however, as her husband, my privilage to treat her with respect and love.
She is far from abused. While she has been my lifelong dancing girl, she has never
been my beck and call girl.

We have provided each other with a wonderful life.

We do however, do things together. We go to dinner as family quite often.
We are all active on stage, in the community. In school functions, we go as a
family. We'll go dancing.

She is indeed my much loved Queen.

But I am not the King unless pushed. Most decisions can easily be handled by
the queen.

What was written, was written as a joke people.

Me? Disrespect my wife? Not happening in this lifetime. There's a reason I married
her.

Spook, we all know that it was tongue in cheek--or at least most of us do.

We share the same feelings towards our wives. I am unable to put it as eloquently as you. I just called the Princess in to read your post and said, "Me too." Thanks. Sourland George

Or feelings towards our DHs. My DH has enjoyed the thread also.



Although he did want me to point out --- He CAN do two things at once but listening and watching tv/computer/or being involved in another conversation is not "one of them".


I can read a book, watch tv and talk to him - all at the same time and keep it all straight. This is something he cannot do - and he states most men cannot.

 

[sourland]

He is correct, we can not.

Or at least we won't admit to that ability.

 

[Spookwriter]

We, as THE-MEN-WHO-RULE, (since we apparently can no longer be Kings)...


We, as THE-MEN-WHO-RULE, can never let the woman know that we can actually
milti-task quite well. Let us protect each other from this myth.

We are men...we can not chew gum and walk at the same time. Proven fact, we
will fall over, our legs still kicking.
